About National Lazy Day
In our non-stop modern world, ironically it now takes some effort to have a lazy day.
- Did you know? There’s a village in Montenegro that holds both the World Championships of Laziness (lying on a mattress for the longest time), and a slow bicycle race where the winner is the last to finish.
The day is intended to make us think about the value of taking time to relax, and enjoy the moment and revel in good entertainment.
The World Day of Laziness began as the closing day of the Festival of Industry, Trade and Culture held in the city of Itagüi, Colombia.
Word of the day: ÜŞENMEK (Turkish) - to be too lazy to do something.
