I unfortunately got sick, but not before I discovered some of the amazing things about Riga:
1. The public transit system is 💯! You never need to wait long. It’s clean. You can scan your card in multiple places so all the doors open and close!
2. The National Library is amazing! 5 floors of donated books plus incredible architecture and fascinating exhibits on the history of books, printing etc. Definitely worth a visit!
3. The food! I’ve mostly eaten vegetarian and it’s actually vegetables and not weird processed soy products!
3a. Everyone should adopt their style of cream cheese.
3b. Dark rye bread is the only rye.
3c. The carrot salad which looks like spiralized carrots is 😋!
3d. There is kombucha everywhere and it is very good!
