What is Serendipity Day?
Serendipity Day celebrates the happy accidents and unexpected good fortune that shape our lives. Inspired by the 18th-century coinage of the word 'serendipity' from the Persian fairy tale 'The Three Princes of Serendip,' the day encourages people to stay open to chance encounters and pleasant surprises.
