Ready to dream about my future husband tonight!

On Saint Hans’ evening there are bonfires all over Denmark. People from everywhere in the world gather in huge crowds. On top of the bonfires are witches on broomsticks, who fly to Bloksbjerg (the witch it spot) when the bonfire is lit.
A tradition on this day is that every unwed girl cut off seven wild flowers and put them under her pillow, and on the night of Saint Hans’, she will dream of her future husband.
