MARTENITSA

CHECK OUT DANIEL AND HIS MARTENITSA!







 On the first day of March Bulgarians  exchange and wear white and red  martenitsa  and hope that it will make the winter pass faster and bring spring.  Martenitsa are always given as gifts. They bring good luck. They are worn on clothing until the wearer sees a stork, a swallow or a blossoming tree,and then removes the Martenitsa and hangs it on a blossoming tree. 
What a lovely tradition!
