Trip to Riga, Latvia

It's my last day staying in our dorm, and I started to pack my luggage in the mid night, right after our farewell with Armanda, Felipe, and Claudio.


Joyce, Zana, and I tried our new method of rolling our shirts, and now I'm a master of t-shirt rolling hahaha.



I fell asleep when I packed my stuffs. When I got up, the atmosphere was really different. Our room seemed so empty.


I was really sad to leave our dorm. I even took a picture of me and our last trashes. I know it seems ridiculous. But I felt so sad when I saw my huge bag of trash.


Joyce, Fasya, and I had to leave at around 9.30 because we wanted to go to Evelina's place to put our huge luggage. Isabella helped us to carry our luggage. I was so sad (again), because today might be my last meeting with Isabella.



We arrived at Evelina's house, and spend some hours there. I wrote my blog, Joyce did her stuffs, and Fasya slept on the couch. We had to go to the bus station before 4.30 because our bus was at 4.30.


We were ready to go, when Evelina's dog escaped from the house. It was a disaster! We missed a bus that we supposed to take, just because we chased the dog. Well, good job, dog!


We were lucky that we went so much earlier. So we could go to Iki to buy some stuffs, then went to the bus stop.


Isabella came to the bus station to meet us and say good bye. I was really sad that it might be our last meeting in Lithuania. Isabella, I love you so much!




Well, I wanna tell you guys that my bus was so awesome! We could get some free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. And more than that, they have wifi there! What a dream bus <3




It took around 4 hours to go to Riga from Vilnius. And once we arrived, I realized that it's totally summer here. It's hot! Hahahaha.








Well, Riga is basically a European country (of course). It looks a little bit more modern than Lithuania, and also more noisy than Lithuania. For me, Riga is a very nice place to visit. I love this place already.






We walked from the bus station to find our hostel. Luckily, Zana was so smart today that we could find the hostel. It was on Mc Donald. Yes, right. We stay in a hostel on Mc Donald.


The hostel was really cool! I highly recommend this place! You have to come here if you wanna stay in Riga!





Btw, the wifi password is backpackers hihihi


We all went to see the city center at around 10 PM, and I saw some great views on our way to the city center.














We went to the sky club too. It was like a tall building (with a club on its 26th floor) with a very nice view.





Then finally we looked around the city center, and that was totally amazing!

























Riga, I LOVE YOU!
