Between the days getting shorter, temperatures dropping and the memory of those around us who have departed from this world, there are many reasons to feel down and under. But this year, we promise, you will not be affected by the All Saints Day blues. The idea? Gathering your kin, families and/or friends, for a new generation Day of the Dead. A positive method to distillate joy as the 1 st and 2nd of November inch closer.
The Day of the Dead in the Día de Los Muertos spirit, are you tuned in?
Impulsed by Lajoiedesfleurs.fr, the Day of the Dead in the spirit of Día de Los Muertos draws its origin from the Mexican tradition and was adapted to our French culture. The principle? Celebrating persons we miss in a joyful manner, and more globally, celebrating the life of yesterday and today with flowers. A resolutely new feel good approach that focuses on happy moments. Good vibes only.
