Regional/Cultural Day

Window Plant Day

Your apartment in Monaco has a tiny balcony overlooking the harbor, and the geranium in the window box is your quiet companion. You water it each evening, watching the yachts bob in the sunset. A plant at the window is a small green flag that says life can thrive even in the most polished of places.
