May Day in Macedonia

                The first of May was chosen as an International Worker’s Day by the Socialists and Communists of the Second International to commemorate the Haymarket affair in Chicago in the late 19th century. However, if you ask people in Macedonia about a detailed explanation of why we celebrate this day, they will just say that it’s a “worker’s rights day”. To celebrate this day, we like to go on a picnic, make barbecue and have some beers. This is how 90% of the young people would spend their time on this day in Macedonia, so some may jokingly refer to it as a “beer and barbecue” day. If you are a stranger in Macedonia and go on a trip with your Macedonian friends, you are guaranteed to see something different and have a good time.
