Varu derēt kad lielākā daļa kas skatās šo video ir latvieši 😂

Greetings from Latvia 🇱🇻 🇱🇻 🇱🇻

Nice! I'm from Latvia and what I love the most about my country is indeed it''s nature & culture! Some things were already mentioned, like, we've got no natural disasters, which I absolutely love, it''s super safe to live here :D But we do have the 4 seasons which is awesome! We've got lot's of scientists who have discovered/made quite a lot of things. Also, while, sadly, Euro has replaced our money "Lati" which we had before and it was one of the most valuable money in the world, but at least to us Latvians it's super important and we're proud that we have our own language - Latvian! And it's also one of the difficult ones. No ones gonna take that away from us ;D Oh, also - every single person in Latvia speaks at least 2 languages, be it Latvian & Russian (cuz we were part of Soviet Union and lots of Russians are still here) or Latvian & English. Though I'd even say that majority actually speaks 3 languages - Latvian, English & Russian, while quite some even have German or French added to it ;) So, yup, we're quite...multilingual? :D

I was there in February and I have very beautiful memories on that place and when Coronavirus is over we are going to visit Latvia again! Such a beautiful, peaceful country with very friendly and heartwarming people!! I love the facts that there lives only 2 millions people on so big land. In Capital city you feel sometimes like on a village and it feels soo big!! The atmosphere and little russian feeling just amazing place! And most of the people spoke english even old ladies!!

Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia are hidden gems. I would like to visit it one day.

I am an aviation professional , wandered a-lot around Europe, been to and worked several companies but in the end i decided to stay in Riga Latvia. It is my 6th year here now and i just have one word " It inexplicably is a paradise" Amazing culture ( especially the LIGO , Flowers band and vibrant traditional dress) Lovely people , Beautiful smart girls . ( No offence men are cool too :D ) And i would say the air here is clean and pure, you could feel the freshness after a light rain and go for a walk around the city forest skirts. All in all. Heart does not want so much to be happy, Small simple beautiful things can be found here. Cheers from New Zealand.

1:27 - Some Belorussians might get upset for not being mentioned as our neighbours.

I met someone from Latvia 3 years ago. Everything you mentioned is what I've learned and seen from my beautiful Latvian friend. I'm slowly falling more in love with Latvia. I will hopefully have a trip there soon and meet my friend. :)

Wow, I got to know Latvia better now :) greetings from Lithuania🇱🇹, braliukai

I love that he said "gauža river" ps I'm Latvian!! 🇱🇻❤️❤️ Sveicieni!! :D

Fun fact abaut Latvia is its one of the hardest languages to learn. Im latvian YOO latvieši kā iet ?

FUN FACT: Latvian culture -- love criticizing. This guy knows so many great things about Latvia and seems to like it a lot but many Latvians only note that he pronounced Gauja wrong! ;D Anyway, thanks for the video. It is indeed a great place to be!

I love how nearly all of the comments are Latvian on a video meant to educate those not aware of Latvia.

Ja esi no LATVIJAS tad spied like👍

"theres alot of beautiful women in latvia" Me:..... I am from latvia, im a girl, and i look like i have never seen light, short as grass, and dumb af

Wow šis ir labākais ko esmu dzirdējis un tas ka vēl vidio pa Latviju man ir patīkami, ļoti ceru ka drīz palielinasies cilvēku skaits īpaši latvieši 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻

Jeez summer in latvia right now is hooooott

Regards to our little sister from Lithuania! 🇱🇹❤️

I never gave much thought about Latvia... but yesterday I’ve just learned that my favored ice cream here in Taiwan is imported from Latvia... 🇱🇻 Go Latvia 👍

"Latvia has tall and beautiful women"...ahem * looks in the mirror * c':

You forgot about Song and Dance Festival! It happens once in 4 years!

Btw Latvia was the first country who invented christmas tree at christmas.

Hello! I'm from Latvia as well! I have to agree, this is a beautiful place and I love almost everything about it. If you don't believe our words then come and see it yourself. 😏👌🏼😎🤗🇱🇻

I lived in Latvia for one and a half years. And I absolutely loved it😍😍😍😍 Everything is amazing there. And if anyone going there, I recommend to try Rimi chips (no flavor), Kvass and Rigas balsams😍

This is one of the most accurate video about Latvia that I have seen. Great job!

Greetings from Estonia! Latvia is a cool neighbour!

That’s true! Good job on the facts. I love Latvia it’s so beautiful and innovated!

Nobody: Random Latvians in the comment section: Press like if you're Latvian, i'm from Latvia!

Let's not forget the fact that a Latvian person invented Jeans, which is insanely popular now. We were the first country to light a Christmas tree at Christmas. a Latvian person inspired Crocodile Dundee. Our country is also great and famous at Ice Hockey. We almost have a famous Latvian Basketball (Kristaps Porzingis) player that has recently joined Dallas Mavericks after leaving Knicks, and is around 2.20 meters tall. There's most likely more but I'm not smart enough to know this about my own country LMAO. Also you should definitely make a 2nd part of this. Was very interesting to listen to these facts about my own country. Thank you

Of course make a part 2! You made me feel prouder for Latvia, and by the way, Greetings from Latvia! 🇱🇻 edit:wow 71 likes?!? This is my newest record of likes!! thank youu!

I was in Latvia in May.I was pleasantly surprised how beautiful it is.Green,green,green...I had a wonderful stay there.Greetings from Split,Croatia.

i live in latvia. Latvija ir brīnum pilna are there any latvians? like

Great job, thank you, Your content is amazing.

There’s a story behind the flag: There was a soldier who was shot in a war so they put him on a white sheet and the red colour is where he bled.🇱🇻

I lived in Latvia last year and I loved it So much. It was so environmentally friendly and peaceful

We don't have any natural disasters No earthquakes, tornadoes and tsunamis

Nicely done! I came here to find out more about Latvia while watching their amazing and unexpected performance at this year's World Hockey Championships in Latvia/Finland ! Got Latvia on the bucket list now for a visit...I'm hoping there's a Maple Leaf below Toronto on your jersey?!

Man ļoti patīk Latvija jo viņa ir nevainīga

I love how he pronounced “Gauja” like “Gauža” it’s wrong 😂

Thank you for talking about my country, there was some facts that i didn't know so thank you!

Thank you for creating Latvian content in English. A high percentage of my heritage is Latvian, My grandfather fled to the state's due to the post WWII Soviet occupation. I would love to see more videos regarding Latvian history specifically the year's Pre WWI and Post WWII. Thanks again! :)

Very interesting video! :)

We have 7th fastest internet in the world!

You did not mention Ice hockey, some famous latvians: Dj Lethal from Limp Bizkit, Jacob W. Davis the inventor of jeans, Arvids Blumentālsaka( Crocodile Harry) aka The original Crocodile Dundee...

Man patîk ka visi dzīvo ļoti ļoti tuvu labdien Latvija

My girl friend is Latvian ... I'm really gald to know more about Latvia. Thank you so much dude! \,,/

I like that Latvia has kept many of it's forests and swamps. Those are great places for walks and nature exploration!

I've now lived 3 years in Latvia, having moved from Ireland. Some comments: 1. Turning left on Riga's main streets while driving is typically very difficult, due to their unusual junction systems; often you will have to turn right down some side street and perform various moves to loop round to eventually traverse the road you were on. 2. They have the "genius" idea of having pedestrian crossings round corners at traffic lights, so when you get the green light to turn into a street traversing the one you were waiting on, often you'll have to stop again while still in first gear, just to let the pedestrians walk across... this dangerous madness is also seen in other parts of eastern Europe, for example, Warsaw. 3. As with other parts of eastern Europe, drivers on the main carriageways like to drive right up behind you, almost touching you, before overtaking you... I call this "the Latvian Swoop". 4. Many streets in Riga have threadbare or non-existent road markings, which can make for heart attack inducing experiences. 5. The Latvians seem to regard trees / forests as sacred; sight lines at road junctions are often blocked by a tree that anywhere else would have been chopped down in the interests of safety. 6. The people are family centric (which is good!), but there is none of the civic pride or sense of community you would be familiar with in the West, or at least, that's my impression of it. This emphasis on family-before-community is reported by other western expats as a common theme in eastern Europe. 7. The Lats are very touchy about their language, which they protect ferociously with laws and rules, to the extent that the large Russian minority in the country feel persecuted on this issue; many older Russians can't read or speak Latvian, yet have to deal with medicines, for example, with documentation written exclusively in Latvian (or with Lithuanian and Estonian thrown in, but no Russian). That said, since I hate globalism, I fully support Latvia's decision to protect their language, even if I think they've gone too far by trying to eliminate Russian entirely. 8. Winters are bleak beyond belief. It's not the cold that's the issue, but the darkness and the overcast skies (common to all of eastern Europe in winter), compounded by those suffocating trees blocking out light if you have the misfortune of living close to a forest. Many people here suffer from sleep disorders, which is common in northern lands in winter; my advice is buy a light box and take large quantities of Vit D3 and fish oil if you value your sanity while wintering in Latvia. 9. Summers are mostly sunny and pleasant, but if you live near water or forests, the risk of assault from disease-laden mosquitoes is high. Ticks are also a problem and carry Lyme disease, despite some formal denials from the medical professionals here. And the country is infested with moles hellbent on destroying your garden. 10. Healthcare is better and more accessible than in western Europe, although some Lats will tell you it is getting worse all the time and suffers from regulation from the EU. Overall, it's not the worst place in the world to live, but it takes some time to get used to and it's not where I would want to spend the rest of my life. The distance from my homeland (4 day drive one way), the lack of mountains (hiking in mountains is one of my hobbies), the mosquitoes, the darkness of winter... these are the things that make me want to leave. But I know I would always miss it and have a warm heart towards Latvia for the time spent here.

I love the country's landscape.absolutely beautiful. thank you so uch.

I appriciate you taking the time to research about Latvia. I am from Latvia but I live in Florida now. Latvia is a very beautiful place to visit, I would recommend it to people. The population is slowing down and it is sad to hear that but we can only hope that it will get better in future. Again thank you for taking the time and have a wonderful day.

U got a bad habit of putting women on thumbnail. 🤣

I was born in Latvia but ive lived in Britain since i was four. In a few hours I'll be going to the airport to visit my family and im so excited. Last time i visited was 7 years ago. I cant wait to go back

I really enjoyed this video

When you get all hyper when your country gets talked about in a video and you just had to comment that you're latvian.

The legendary chess grandmaster Mikhail Tal is from riga ,Latvia.

Thank You

This is really brilliant

Hi I'm from Latvia and I hope you will go there

I'm Latvian and I'm proud :)

I am a Filipino and I have a friend from Latvia. She's too kind and very friendly. She always shares her daily lives and I love about it. I think Latvians love to share there daily lives. Let me know if I'm correct.

Latvia is where Ed Leadscalin was from. He came to America and built "Coral Castle" (in Florida) single handedly. He moved 20k lb stone and coral blocks without assistance and took his secrets to his grave. He was stood up at the alter by his 16 year old bride and built Coral Castle in her remembrance.

Es esmu no Latvijas!🇱🇻

Beautiful. My husband was Latvian born. We would love to travel there some day.

manā valstī man matīk Latvijas svētki🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻

Nice video!

Haven't been in Latvia for a long time, I would like to visit it someday! Greetings from your neighbor Lithuania!

Nice stuff, but you didn't mentioned Sing and Dance festival where you can see and hear the biggest choir in the world with more than 10k singers

I have lived in Latvia since birth. But only after watching this video I was very surprised when I found out that the Latvian flag was already there at the end of 1200. Now I have been living in Sweden for 23 years, but I have always been proud of the fact that I am Latvian and still have a Latvian passport. I wish you all peaceful skies, wonderful travels, and good luck.

Thank you for this video about my home!

Part 2 Please!!!! Latvia is a beaituful country with unique places (castles, museums, cafes , pubs etc) to visit and unique cuisine to try! Also, thank you for making video about Latvia ^ .^

Love Latvia from Serbia!

Thank you for making a video about this small country not many know about.

I'm latvian an I like everything about Latvia!❤❤❤❤❤

Love Latvia From Pakistan

i randomly searched latvia and watched this yes its 3 am

Amazing video 🥰 you are lovely 🙂

Another fun fact about Latvias flag:the Latvian flag was in use as early as the 13th century. The red colour is sometimes described as symbolizing the readiness of the Latvians to give the blood from their hearts for freedom and their willingness to defend their liberty. An alternative interpretation, according to one legend, is that a Latvian leader was wounded in battle, and the edges of the white sheet in which he was wrapped were stained by his blood. The white stripe may stand for the sheet that wrapped him.

It's fun to look at famous people from Latvian, we had The crocodile hunter, basketball players ( now and even before (tallest basketball player- female)), hockey players, doctors (medical researcher)

My Dad was Latvian I'm sure he would have enjoyed this video. Glad I watched.

*Latvia Has Tall And Beatiful Women* Men: Am i a joke to you?
