Today my country celebrating 100 years! I’m proud to be Latvian! If you want to know our history, visit the blog post “18th November – Latvia’s Independence Day“.

On a day like this, I couldn’t resist sharing few videos below 🙂
In the video, we see a lot of wonderful personalities – both more or less well-known and completely unknown in the wider community. There is opera singer Inga Šļubovska-Kancēviča, ceramic artist Laima Grigone, new chess talent Miķelis Vingris, bath-man Valdis Ķīķeris and many others. They all participate in the formation of the State of Latvia with their energy.
Thank you,
Ilze

Thank you! 100 years and 35 years me being Latvian 🙂 Part of the time under the Soviet Union and bigest part in Independet Latvia :). Happy to have Independent Latvia 🙂
I can understand your happiness!
I bearly remember “awakening” but I know that ever since we are free to BE 🙂
One Hundred Years! Wonderful! and many, many more years of health, prosperity and freedom for you and your country.
Thank you for sharing the videos. I especially loved the first one with the description of how the sculptor designed the monument to freedom, how she stands on the base of everyone that went before….quite inspiring.
Thank you! I love that video too! Inspiring indeed!
Happy Celebration to Latvia!! The second video reminds me of your qualities, very well done!!
We in America know what it’s like to be free, it happened for us 242 years ago!! Enjoy!!!
I think USA have nothing to worry about. But Latvia.. near Russia… without “budget” for “war”… I hope we will stay FREE many more years!
I hope you do too🙏
Great post 👍
Wonderful that Latvia has reached such a milestone! I think you, too, have great energy as you have achieved so much!
