ຂ້ອຍກັບມາ - ອີກຮອບ, ຂີ່ບ້າອີກ - RIGA

ຈັດພີມມາ: 28.10.2018

Actually, I didn't want to continue the blog at all during this Eurotrip. But just now I browsed through old posts and somehow I find it nice for myself to enjoy all the cheese with a sparkling wine in my bathtub and let my soul dangle.... lol....

Without a destination and guided by the cheapest flight prices, the first travel destination was RIGA in beautiful Latvia. Just a few weeks ago, someone could have told me that Riga is a region in northern Zimbabwe...and I would have believed it! Latvia was so little present and interesting to me. But with 9.90€ for the flight, I didn't really care where I landed....

The beautiful Old Town of Riga was even more overwhelming. Various architecture, many beautiful churches, cozy cafes and bars.


My cultural interest always initially focuses on the most important thing. Beer. It was even more beautiful that the local, unpronounceable beer 'Valmiermuiža' is absolutely delicious and hopefully can be found somewhere with us. The high-proof national drink is called 'Rigas Melnais balzams'. While I don't like the 'fruity' version, I find the original, which is somewhere between Fernet Branca, Kümmerling and Jägermeister, very successful.


A dinner with traditional Latvian cuisine shows some parallels to German food. Knuckle of pork, sauerkraut (even better than ours), mashed potatoes... but you should wait for the knuckle of pork for about an hour. But since I feel incredible anger when I'm hungry, I had to take something else.... boy boy boy....and an appetizer too! But delicious as well! (while I am writing this, I get hungry and get really angry again!)


The Radisson Blu hotel treats you with its Skybar at a height of 90m with a wonderful view over the city and confirms one thing above all: Whiskey tastes good everywhere!


Almost used to the city and knowledgeable as in my pocket (<3), I had to look where the next plane would take me. With the cheap flight prices within Europe, it almost becomes a luxury problem to make a decision. But the cheapest flight commanded me to continue my journey to Stockholm .... To be continued.
