Happy Women’s Day, you gorgeous ladies! Hope you started the day beautifully and spending it looking forward to a party tonight – because it’s 8th of March and because it’s Friday!
I don’t really know if you actually celebrate this day in Austria like people do in some other countries, but I think it’s great for women to have a special day and remember to be kind and lovely to each other.
In my family, we celebrate 1st and 8th of March and we love it, because men (ALL men that know us) bring us flowers, small gifts and plan a dinner 
It’s not the gifts that thrill us – but we don’t mind – but the fact that we are surrounded with so many nice people at once who are ready to celebrate our special day.
On these two days the city is full of flowers and women receive them even from strangers, just walking down the street, from everybody in the office, from all their friends, from all the clients and partners. At the end of the day there are so many flowers you feel overwhelmed – and just like around Christmas, people should remember to be kind to each other every day, not just on one special day – but maybe this is what makes it special? I don’t know, but I love it!
This is what was waiting for me this morning, looking forward to the flowers now
Happy, happy Friday!
Happy Women´s Day for you too!
Where are you from?
It is really not popular to celebrate 8 of March in here Germany, but I will enjoy this day.
All women should celebrate! I am always afraid of this question as I don’t know how to answer…my mother is Romanian/Greek and my father German/Hungarian. I grew up all over Europe and caught all the great habits from everywhere, bringing them with me as “my tradition”
We don’t celebrate Women’s Day. But Friday night I went to Piccobello restaurant here in Hamburg and all ladies received a long stemmed rose. That was very sweet from the patrone
Hope you had a wonderful day with your loved ones xo
