February is such a romantic sounding month. It has the promise of an early spring, longer days and the romance of Valentine's Day. In the Nordics Valentines Day is not celebrated as much as elsewhere in Europe and the rest of the world. It's marked but in a very understated way and there is no exchange of cards and gifts in schools for example. We do, however, celebrate some other days and in true Nordic fashion these are not allowed to go unnoticed or without cake and a few treats!!!
