Happy Lucia! Today we celebrate one of the most beloved Swedish traditions – perhaps also one of the most odd-looking. 😍 On 13 December, the traditional Lucia songs can be heard in countless corners of the country – in churches, schools and workplaces. At the heart of it is Lucia, the bearer of light in the Swedish winter darkness. She leads a singing procession of candle-carrying handmaidens and ‘star boys’, all dressed in white gowns. 🕯️ The Lucia celebration also includes gingerbread biscui
