As many of you may be aware, most of the Handy Backup development and marketing team is located in Novosibirsk, Russia. Spring here, especially March, is a great and crazy time loved by ones and hated by the others – it’s a beautiful atmosphere of a war between cold in the air (it’s rarely warmer than 0°C or 32°F) and waking warmth in the hearts.
However, there’s one day this month that absolutely all Russians love: an International Women’s Day, celebrated on 8th of March each year. Started a hundred years ago as a Socialist political event, today it has grown to a mixture of Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, when men express appreciation to all the women in their lives and give them flowers (traditionally, tulips) and small gifts.
