Valentine's Day is definitely popular in Japan. As with most things though, Japan adds a twist. On Valentine's Day, it's the girls who give chocolate and sweets to the boys. Girls also give chocolate to their female friends and family. Sounds like the boys get the better end of the deal, right? Wait, it gets better. Not only is it tradition for girls to give chocolates, the girls actually MAKE their goodies. That's right. They don't go to a store and buy their gifts, they spend hours making them in their houses. Talk about a labor of love!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Man, Japan sounds awesome right about now... just saying...
