Riga in tweets

How did my travel plans for Riga‘s book fair and travel turn out? It was fun, of course! Below you can see a selection of Riga in tweets, for more see my Twitter account. And don’t forget to read the trip’s summary post: Riga in 10 Photos.

Riga in tweets

Arrived on time. Went to Central Market and felt like I wouldn't leave Warsaw. But it's #Riga. pic.twitter.com/V9JRD3wFcU

The food was great! Here are some things I ate:

My first meal in #Riga was in Peek-a-boo right by my hostel. Sausage, sauerkraut (rather sweet) and kasha. Nice. pic.twitter.com/6kxEoo6VW4

It’s worth going to Folk club Ala. Great music, great beer and great food!

So delicious food in Riga! Tasted today sausage, peppermint&choco cake, beer & pork medallions. "Ala" rocks so far! pic.twitter.com/UJ7elPDxBs

There are some drawbacks to Riga.

Stairs, stairs, stair eveywhere I go in #Riga.

Those stairs were in the tourist places too. Clubs, restaurants, museums. So that means Riga is rather wheel-chair unfriendly.

 

But what I loved was the possibility to sightsee on foot! Yes, I have not used public communication at all.

I made in #Riga over 21km (13km today) just on foot. Now less than 1h away from #Vilnius. Will there be another record?

Overall?

Day 2 in #Riga was unlucky. The book fair was disappointing. But… Behold Riga! I'll come back one weekend.

And I’ll make sure to go there on the weekend so that I can enjoy the party in Golden club. 🙂
