Another Random Apperance Another Random Question
Greetings to my fellow tubers!
Here I am again; popping up randomly, as usual. It is the day before Valentine's Day here in the U.S.A. Once again I will be ignoring the holiday alone. That is okay though, it has become somewhat of a tradition with me. Each year on February 14 in the U.S.A. we celebrate "Valentine's Day." A romantic holiday for lovers of all stripes where everyone from grandparents to a kid with his first crush is encouraged to express that love through the symbolic gift of a card, flowers, boxes of chocolates and even more extravagant things if you have the means, given to the person whom you love.
As always, my brain thinks in random circles. I began wondering; is Saint Valentine's Day celebrated in other parts of the world? If so, where? Which led to the next thought: How many different countries are represented here on G.B.T.?
Here; then, is my question. What country or if you don't feel comfortable revealing your country, which continent, do you live on? I am curious to know if my fellow tubers span the globe. Please post a comment if you would like to share your location. As always, thanks in advance!
Oh! Postscript: Happy Valentine's Day Everyone! :-)

When I lived in Tokyo the Japanese girls give men/boys in their life chocolates on Valentines. One month later White Day boys reciprocate by giving girls/women white chocolates. A scheme by candy companies that became very popular.
It appears no one has bothered to make an entry to your blog post here, so I will be the firstl Am European, Swedish to be exact. I Believe you will find GBT members from all continents here. Maybe not North Korea and possibly a few others. I have friends in New Zealand (which is almost the antipode of Sweden). Get in touch if you wish! Yes, we do celebrate St Valentine´s Day in Sweden too!
