6 Things NOT To Do in Latvia!
Latvia is a small country with a population of less than two million. While people are generally relaxed and tranquil there are some things which will offend. Here are 6 Things Not To Do in Latvia!
1. Don’t mention the Russians!
Latvia has a complex relationship with Russia. Many Latvians feel the Russians don’t accept them as their own independent country and many Russians living there don,t feel accepted as Latvians. Neither like an ignorant tourist voicing their opinion about it!
2. Don’t ignore their language!
The Latvian language was suppressed during the Russian occupation so try to learn some simple words.
Sveiki (hello)
Ardievas (goodbye)
Paldies (thanks).
They know they’re never going to be a global language but they really appreciate you trying.
3. Don’t avoid the local dishes!
Latvians are proud of their culture and cuisine. Try the local dishes and beverages and give your opinion, especially if you like them. From fried garlic bread to fresh fruit jams, Latvia has a varied cuisine with excellent domestic beers.
4. Don’t be aggressive (unless you’re driving!)
Latvians generally have a calm and “each to his own” lookout on life so don’t be brash or too bold, unless you’re behind the wheel, then it really is each to his own!
5. Don’t turn up empty-handed!
If you get invited to someone’s house always bring an odd number of flowers, an even number is associated with death, some food or beverages
and remember to take your shoes off just inside the door.
6. Don’t disrespect nature!
Half of Latvia is still virgin forest. Most Latvians are nature lovers and still follow many pagan traditions. They will show you how to make crowns from flowers and tea from the local herbs. Join in respectfully and they will appreciate it.

What is America like after experiencing life in Europe? BIG. Consumerism. Gun violence. The homeless. The police. What do you do for work?
This is how I see the US after living in the Netherlands for 5 years. Sometimes it takes leaving a place for one to truly understand the pros and cons of a place. There are things I love and dislike about the US. Hope you enjoy this short movie!

THE TRUTH ABOUT LATVIANS | Part 1
A lot of people have been asking - why are you so doing this and this, why do you care or don't care about this? It's simple - Latvian culture is different from others (I think in a good way obviously).
NB! Please note that this video is based on information from my personal experience and from people I used to be around back home. Not everyone is like I describe in the video.

A Brit Living in Latvia
Join me as we stroll through the streets of Riga in Latvia and I share with you my experiences as a Brit Living in Latvia.
As Brits, it is our nature to roam around the globe, but certain things from home must accompany us on our travels...
See how the first year of Brexit has been a real challenge and how complicated it has become for some Brits abroad.
We meet some other foreigners from France, Spain and India and get chatting about their stay in Riga.
If you love to travel or are thinking of moving to Latvia, then discover some advantages in being foreign in Latvia and get useful tips to help you when here.
If you enjoy adventure videos in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, then grab your Vodka, some Zakuskas and join me as we stroll around Riga, Capital of Latvia!!!
