My dream is to visit Latvia. Latvia is a foreign country, but not quite: everyone from schoolchildren to retirees speaks Russian here. So you can easily get directions to the street where "Seventeen Moments of Spring" and "Sherlock Holmes" were filmed. Despite the Russian language, the atmosphere in Riga and other Latvian cities is European: the narrow streets, organ music, castles, colorful houses, tower spires and pleasant crowd on the leisurely promenade. In order not to miss anything interesting, keep your internal fire going with Latvian cuisine. In addition to cumin cheese and peas and bacon, you'll find unexpected bread soup with raisins and cinnamon, as well as bread ice cream. Even if you come only to Riga for a weekend, consider your first experience of traveling in Europe a success. Besides, it's not far from the capital to Jurmala, so you can relax on the sea at the same time. The next level - to sit down at a map and plan a trip to Latvian cities, beaches and national parks. You can take buses and trains - try it, it's not difficult.
