Mongolia Edition
Dia del Amor y la Amistad leads today's complete edition for Mongolia.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
Colombians celebrate this on the third Saturday of September in some regions, but February 14 still brings roses, serenatas, and the aggressive marketing of every restaurant in the Zona Rosa. The real Colombian love language is bringing someone a tinto when they didn't ask for one.
The day of love has been adopted by younger Mongolians with enthusiasm, and the restaurants and cafes of Ulaanbaatar offer special menus and romantic packages. The older generation often prefers to celebrate Tsagaan Sar instead, and the two holidays sometimes coincide. The tradition among nomadic families is to give the gift of a handcrafted item (a decorated snuff bottle, a carved chess piece, or a new pair of boots) rather than flowers or chocolate.
