Since there is no special person, Valentine’s Day is not celebrated separately. Most of the time it is a working day, so time passes in the middle of work and no special programs are seen outside.
While studying at the university, we used to go to concerts centered on this day from time to time. However, this exchange of love is complete with the members of Bangladesh Local Guide, so a huge virtual family of more than 13 thousand members has been formed.

Each of my activities helps from 10 to 100 people. There are also some core committee members, so I don’t want to disappoint the rest by mentioning the names of a few.

In a special day like today, When I plan to go to a new restaurant with my partner, friends and family; I first go to Google Maps, find new restaurants, look at their menus, where I can find my favorite food within my budget in a suitable place, and then I go there. So here Google Maps is my best invisible helper in a special occasion. :heart:

Hi @DeniGu
Thank you for sharing this wonderful post with us
In our country this Pahela Falgun/পহেলা ফাল্গুন is celebrated on 14th February along with Valentine’s Day.

On the occasion of Pahela Falgun, various business in our country offer various offers & discount. I have already contributed an update on that on Google Maps.
