Holidays_republika_srpska

The official January holiday list for Republika Srpska. Click to enlarge.

This weekend was Orthodox Christmas. Although there is a very large Serbian Orthodox Church in Ljubljana, the actual Orthodox population in Slovenia is tiny — somewhere below one percent.

If there ever is a time to regret not living in an Orthodox country, though, it’s January. The letter you see above (click for the full version) is from the Ministry for Labour and Veterans of the  Republika Srpska and it lists their official January holidays. The letter also mentions that government offices will be closed for all of them. You can see that there’s quite a few holidays. You might also notice that they celebrate New Year (nova godina) twice: First, the international version (Jan. 1 + 2) and then again on the 14th and 15th of January. All in all, that makes ten days of holidays. If you add another five weekend days, you realize that civil servants in RS will enjoy half the month off.

By comparison, Slovenia had one official holiday this month: January 1st. And it fell on a Saturday, so it was completely, utterly useless.
