Public Sleeping Day

National Public Sleeping Day is celebrated on February 28 of every year. National Public Sleeping Day encourages the people to sleep in the public places like park, beach, in the movie theatre, or sleep during travelling in a public transport like a train, bus, or even on a subway. It is one of the most beautiful and funny holidays we have seen. If you are tired on February 28, then you can go ahead and take a nice nap in the public places.

“A day without a nap is like a cupcake without frosting.” -Terri Guillemets.
