Happy Mother’s day to Russian mothers
Mother’s day is usually celebrated on March or April in most countries and you might be wondering why I have greeted Russian mothers a happy mother’s day. Well that is because in Russia, Mother’s day is celebrated on the last day of November. Russia is one of the few countries that celebrate their mother’s day other than March or April.

According to Wikipedia “Demonstrations marking International Women's Day in … [Read more...]
