In the down part of the Netherlands is this province called Limburg. This is where I'm from.

And we Limburg folk have this tradition of a party/feast period. This period, we call 'Carnaval' (Dutch) or 'Vastelaovend' (local Limburgish dialect).

In this feast period, there will be parades in basicly every town, CarnaLaovend party songs, and lots, and lots, of dress-up. One big costume party!! You wanna be a doctor you can dress up as a doctor! Wanna be a creepy something dress up like a creepy something! Wanna be a clown, you know the drill! You come to Limburg NL during the CarnaLaovend period, expect to see lotssss of sometimes very weird and random!! dress ups lol.

Can u imagine that to the Limburg folk this is concidered normal haha

Some people also like to dress up as anthro animals. I was one of them ✌️🦌
