Are you ready for the best celebrations in September!

Gypsy Horse fair
I watched a Dutch television show the other day called Trippers in which they highlight interesting lifestyles. It was very interesting to watch, so today I would like to share with you the Gypse Horse Fair a very unique festival to be part of if you are in England.

Gypsies from all over Engeland are been coming to Stow-on-the-World since 1476 and by now it’s the place to be for the traveling culture. Horses are traded and raced like back in the days but nowadays its more about the social gathering. An excellent way for them to meet up an establish relationships.

World Conker Championships
World what? World Conker Championships!
“Conkers” involves threading a brown chestnut on a string and taking turns to the other person’s conker, until it breaks. The last man standing in the winner! So if you are bored one day start your own competition and see how skilled you are! If you feel confident about your abilities you can join the World Championship! Its held in Southwick in England.

Herring festival
Are you thinking about the Netherlands? Me to! We love our Herring and many tourist try it to experience a local treat. So for all the people that love food still visit the Netherlands but another great option will be the Helsinki Herring festival an week long seafood festival. Countless stalls try to tempt you with their favorite herring recipe. At the end of the week the jury decides who offered the best herring surprise.
