It's Cinco de Mayo! ... what's that?
Hi guys and *inhales* IT'S FRIDAY!!
Happy Friday, and also Happy Cinco de Mayo!
Now, you may be asking ... what the heck is that?
Well, Cinco de Mayo is Spanish for "Fifth of May," and it celebrates the day that Mexico defeated the French two centries ago!
Weirdly enough, it's more popualar in the U.S. than in Mexico, but because we share a border, it's not surprising that many of our holidays overlap.
The way we celebrate Cinco de Mayo is usually cooking and sharing large portions of Mexican food, and enjoying Margaritas (a fruity cocktail) with old and new friends.
What do you do on May 5th?
Cheers!

Hi guys, I hope you're having a nice relaxing Thursday!
Today is a beautiful day to be outside and enjoy nature, because it's Greenery Day.
Its significance is to pay respect to nature's blessings.
Japan is so special, because anywhere in this country, (even in the CENTER of Tokyo!) you can find green around you.
Each season is vibrant in its unique characteristics.
This is something I'm not used to back home!
In Alabama, we have a very long summer, and a few weeks of Fall and Spring.
Because of this, I am very thankful to now live in a country that is so dedicated to environmental action and respect toward nature.
Thank you for everyone's hard work keeping Japan green and beautiful!

May Day and Bank Holiday!
Hey!!
Happy May Day!
May Day is a European celebration where we celebrate the beginning of summer.
Many European countries hold outdoor festivals where everyone would eat lots of food and dance to music around the May Tree/May Pole.
Traditionally, people would also gather wildflowers and green branches.
ALSO! Happy Bank Holiday!
In England, today is also everyone's favourite Bank Holiday!
Many people have no work and there is no school!
Instead people would go shopping and hang out with family and friends!
I'm glad that May bank holiday falls under the Golden week too! (¬‿¬)
