International Womens Day


Every year Romanians celebrate 8 Martie, Ziua Femei. A beautiful tradition, that doesn’t depend upon whether you are a mother or not, all you have to be is female.

On this day wherever you go, you will be presented with a flower, in the bank, in the hardware store, or just in the street flowers will be given to you from men or children. Female friends will give each other flowers, teachers will arrive home with arms full of bouquets.

So whilst the celebrations of spring were only 7 days ago, it really has arrived by today, a day worth going shopping and wandering around town.

All you men out there, don’t worry, of course with the entry into Western Europe, you get your day too. No lady knows when this is, but you can be sure that when it arrives, the men will remind you!

So a very happy Ladies Day to the ladies (and to the men – just in case)
