Today, on February 14, people who have not yet found their soul mate can celebrate the International Day of Singles, book lovers will celebrate two holidays, and active people can ride a bicycle to work, thus marking the International Winter Day "To Work by Bike," UNN writes.
Although today is Valentine's Day, it is also the International Day of Loneliness.
This is an event for people who value their individuality, inner harmony, and personal space. But at the same time, they are looking for true love and sincere feelings, rather than preferring short-term relationships.
Today, book lovers can also celebrate two holidays. In particular, in 2006, Australia launched Library Lovers' Day.
The event is dedicated to honoring the invaluable role that libraries play in our society, the dedication of librarians and the love of books and reading.
At the same time, in 2012, the United States introduced Book Giving Day. The purpose of the event is to remind people that a good book is still one of the best and most valuable gifts.
