Valentine's Day is fast approaching once again, and although some may brush it off as yet another American capitalism driven perversion of sacred Catholic tradition, its roots as a romantic holiday actually date back to a fellow called Geoffrey Chaucer, aka the author of the Canterbury Tales and the father of English literature.

However, regardless of history, religion, facts and other such inconveniences, at the end of the day the 14th of February represents an opportunity (or perhaps an obligation depending upon whom one speaks to) for men to show their wives, girlfriends, partners, mistresses and/or long-time crushes (and of course vice versa) that they do in fact understand what it means to be romantic.

While we won't even pretend to be capable of offering any sage advice in this department, we have put together a list of Valentine's Day themed events happening in Ljubljana on and around the big day. If you know of anything that should be added, please let us know at ljubljana@inyourpocket.com.
