FIRST TIME In Riga Latvia 🇱🇻 (I was SHOCKED!)
FIRST TIME In Riga Latvia 🇱🇻 (I was SHOCKED!) is a video where I visit Riga in Latvia. Join me as I embark on my very first visit to this charming Baltic gem, and let me tell you, I was absolutely SHOCKED by what I discovered! In this travel vlog, you'll witness the beauty of Riga through my eyes as I explore its historic Old Town, with its picturesque cobblestone streets and stunning medieval architecture. The city's rich history comes to life as I delve into its fascinating past and uncover hidden secrets.

I was born there, in Riga, but left when I was 9 years old. My parents and I were the only ones from a large family who survived the war because we were already in America and I neveer went back...too afraid of endless days crying of what might have been. My grandparents had a house in Riga and a Datcha in Meluzhi...

Latvians are well-skilled with smoked meats, from all of the different sausages to fish. That smoked mackerel is sublime enjoyed cold, with just fresh lemon squeezed on it. In the new city center there used to be a shop that only sold smoked meats and they had smoked wild boar jerky, that tasted like lean bacon with a sweet molasses glaze on it. Unfortunately, you can't take it or any meat on a flight to the USA. :(

I've been to the best pizzerias in NYC, Brooklyn and New Jersey and the pizza with mushrooms (fughi) at Daba Mamma, Mežaparks T pietura was fantastic! I sang at the 2018 concerts and we had a long wait to get back so we hung out there to wait out the long lines. Latvians make great NY thin style pizza too!

Thank you, David! You’re right, Latvia is very expensive for what it is, which is predominantly aftermath of Covid. The war on our doorstop is contributing to price spikes too, but I think this is a global issue across Europe at the moment. I find the whole Europe unbearably unaffordable for what it actually offers. Come visit when the dust settles :)

Very interesting, although your carnism is, of course, regrettable. By the way, the Baltics are, in fact, *Central* Europe. You can check it - open an atlas on a Map of the entire continent of Europe. Put a ruler to it, from the Ural Mountains to Portugal. The Baltics and ❤Belarus❤ would be at just about the middle of it; this is because the actual centralmost point of the entire continent is, in fact, in Southern Lithuania.🙂
Not cumin, caraway seeds! Due to its appearance cumin may be confused with the caraway seed, but despite their similar appearance the taste is very different. The caraway seed is darker in colour, smoother and a bit curved. Caraway seeds taste more bitter, and the aroma can be described as more mint / anise-like. (Quote)

Thank you very much for your video about most beautiful city - Riga. Just couple of things - Russian language spoken people lived in Riga since 1200 at least, not just from Soviet time. And coffee - yes, we love it, but definitely you can find a very good cup of for 1.50- 2.50 euro.

Please do not write such a nonsense. Anno 1200 there was not such a language as russian at all, russian is a relatively new language. And secondly, there was less than 1% of russians in Latvia at the beginning of 19th century, some 8% of russians in Latvia in 1938. Russification is a direct consequence of Soviet occupation.
