El Salvador
The tradition here is to celebrate a game called 'Secret Friend', which is a lot like 'Secret Santa'. Called Amigo Secreto, everyone's names are written down, and everyone picks a name. You need to get a gift for the person whose name you draw and then all stand in a circle. Each person states one great quality about the secret friend they picked, and the rest have to guess who it is.
The Philippines
If you think a mass celebration of love is the ultimate way to celebrate this day, you'd be in great company in the Philippines. On this day, thousands of people gather together for an en masse wedding celebration, which is sometimes even sponsored by the government as a way to give people who might otherwise not be able to afford a wedding a chance to tie the knot.
