The 1st of March is Baba Marta day in Bulgaria, a holiday in which traditionally people give each other wishes for health, happiness and luck. Gifts are given between family and friends, which are usually home made and are red and white in colour.
Yesterday we received some beautiful bracelets (known as Martenitsi) from Victor, who’s family was celebrating the day of Baba Marta. We found Bulgaria on the globe, shared information about the day and thought about similar celebrations we share with family such as Christmas and birthdays.
Thank you to Victor and family for our beautiful gifts and well wishes.
