An Unexpected Twist in the Beautiful Streets of Latvia
My adventures in Latvia, a gem in the Baltics, offered a blend of beauty and unexpected excitement. Latvia, especially in the early 2000s, was a less-traveled destination, partly due to its expensive cost of living, even shocking the Brits with its high prices.

Her joy in those moments became a cherished memory that outshone even the most extraordinary wonders of Peru. – The Opulent Explorer
