Peru Edition
Dia del Amor y la Amistad leads today's complete edition for Peru.
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 is celebrated with the tradition of giving flowers, chocolates, and romantic dinners. The Peruvian restaurants offer special menus, and the most popular dish is the lomo saltado (stir-fried beef with onions, tomatoes, and French fries, served with rice). The lomo saltado is the symbol of Peruvian romance, and the tradition is to share it with the person you love.
