St. George Express

LetsBonus - LetsSantJordi
La Diada de Sant Jordi" or St. George's Day is often compared to Valentine's Day, but with some uniquely Latin twists. The main event is the exchange of gifts between sweethearts -- men give their novias roses, and women give their novios a book to celebrate the occasion. Due to popular legends about Barcelona, roses have always been associated with this day since medieval times. However, the giving of books as a gift is a more recent marketing twist prominent of our times.
