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 in Romania with flowers, chocolates, and romantic dinners. The Romanian Valentine's Day is a recent import (it became popular after the fall of communism in 1989), and it is celebrated with enthusiasm by the younger generation. The older generation prefers Dragobete, the traditional Romanian love festival ten days later, but the flower shops of Bucharest do a brisk business regardless.
