Happy Bóndadagur! 🎉 Did you know this special day in Iceland is all about celebrating the man of the house – whether it’s a husband, fiancé, or boyfriend? 💙
Here’s a little insight into this day:
❄️ It comes from the old Icelandic calendar, Bóndadagur, or "Farmer’s Day," which marks the start of Þorri, a winter month steeped in tradition.
🕺 Back in the day, the man of the house would greet Þorri with a unique ritual – hopping around the house on one leg while wearing just one pant leg!
🎁 Today, Icelanders pamper their men with gifts, special meals, & even flowers.
Ladies, don’t worry, your day is coming! Konudagur, or "Woman’s Day," follows in the next month of Góa 🌸
