Kaylana04: Here's an warm invite to those who are looking for a simple winter get-away! Riga, Latvia!!!
Evenings can be spent at my house sipping hot, spiced wine by the fireplace swapping stories and tall tales.
Days spent exploring Riga or Jurmala or just lounging by the fire reading a book. Healthy food. Relaxing atmosphere. Invigorating conversation.
Bring your winter coat and snow boots. Wool socks are available... (Heck, I could make you a pair while you are here!)
Ryanair flights post-Christmas are around 150 euros. Return to Stansted after New Year's are around 50 euros. (Disclaimer: Cats roam the house. A dog lives outside. You must provide evidence of your sanity and not be a lunatic!)
It was on the list. i didn't book a ticket yet. But still you are the sweetest. greetings
Tuesday2018: Errr... excuse me!! what do you mean by "of all places"??? Cheeky mare! lol....
It just seems so "northish"... I'm used to taking off for the jump over the Pond from France or Germany. I flew through London once too.
But seriously, the cost of airline flights just seem to be going down - if you catch them at the right time! It's cheaper for me to fly to Berlin than to take a bus that arrives in about 24 hours time....
I've flown numerous places for under 100 euros. It's not that big of an expense as it once was when we were younger....
I've just spent the past 3 weeks here in New Jersey. Only another 4 weeks to go. It was a shock to the system, going from 70F in Spain to between 25 and 45F here in NJ but I came well equipped this time. We had 5.5 inches of snow the other day and it was lovely to see. Took loads of photos down here in the woods.
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year . Feliz Navidad y Prospero Ano Nuevo. I can't find my Spanish keyboard on this tablet lol....

Wow!! Sounds amazing! I would sure love some real snow like that! It's on its way, I hope soon.. New Jersey is a fantastic place. I have a few friends that live there. It's great that you are getting to enjoy it.
Wishing you a joyous holiday and a prosperous New Year!!

Sorry, I don't currently have a passport. Thank you for the wonderful invitation. Maybe in the Summertime. When I visited my family in NYS for Thanksgiving, it snowed and was the coldest Thanksgiving on record.
Sorry no up to date passport here but, it would be interesting to see the area with a local person. Also as a dog owner and a cat lover they wouldn't be a problem to me.
mollybaby: I think Riga is more "northish" than Dublin
We are more Westish though
Girl, I sure know what you’re talking about! I know you are a “Westerner”... the whole “Eastern” European title gets a little old... as if it’s a second rate place.
Geez! My family even thinks I live in a Third World country.
