Hello! Some time ago I shared with you things that I love in Latvia. Now I want to tell about the ones that i don’t like. Don’t be angry at me! I still love this place but I believe that in every country you can find things that makes you angry or sad. For sure I can find several ones in Poland.
Hugs and kisses,

Agree with everything except for the public transport one. 😅 Idk why you think that only poor people use public transport and the system is really not that bad.
I much more prefer taking the bus to the centre because of the parking situation in the centre.
It really depends where you live of course, but I have not seen an old bus in many months and I don’t even live in the centre.
P.S. I’m confused what you meant by saying that it’s faster to go by car than bus on the same route? Is that not the case in basically every place in the world? 😅
Six months isn't enough, especially in winter. A wise person once said that the best time to move to Latvia is in the winter—you see all the drawbacks first, and then summer arrives… People who come in summer often don't stay as long compared to those who arrive in winter. So, everything is still ahead for you 😉
It will be interesting to see if your perspective changes after the next 6 months of living in Latvia during nicer weather period. A lot of these negative things seem to relate to the long winter here. Also I hope you get out of Riga during this time; there's so much to do outside Riga you just have to get out of the tourist comfort zone.
Thanks for sharing. As a person who is from Latvia I agree. Is good to hear this from someone who can compare with other country. Your so true, about saying thay latvians say when you get to know us we are very loving and kind, but how to get to know them if latvians look like, dont come closer to me. Just rare person will continue pursue this kind of person 😀 Even as latvian I have problems to get latvian friends, unless they are not from my school or work.
