Sant Joan is listed as a public holiday in Spain. English reference name: St. John's Day.
A day for looking outside before deciding what to wear, carry, postpone, protect, harvest, or celebrate.
You walked in looking for a specific title. The person behind the counter hands you something else entirely. You leave holding a story you did not know you needed.
The morning after the bonfires, coastal towns celebrate with beach picnics and concerts. In Ciutadella, Menorca, the Caixerdes ride horses through the streets, rearing them up on their hind legs while the crowd tries to touch the horses for luck. The combination of fire, water, and horses makes this one of the most visceral festivals in Spain.
A day for herbs, flowers, seedlings, balcony pots, and every bit of green people manage to keep alive.
A day for the quick meal, the regular customer, the busy cook, and the food people rely on between obligations.
You observe white-tailed eagles, moose, and ringed seals in the archipelago's forests and waters. You find that local residents commonly keep cats, dogs, and rabbits as household companions. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You enjoy Zambian copper, one of the world's finest sources of this essential metal that built the nation's industrial foundation. You understand that copper mining shaped Zambian identity and continues to power economies across continents.
