About This Blog
The Freedom Monument (Riga, Latvia)
There are lots of reasons why people learn a foreign language. For some it’s love and relationships, for others it’s a necessity for business and travel, and for many more – a struggle to keep connected with their family roots from generation to generation.
In my case, I speak fluent Latvian, however, I live abroad and my husband’s first language is English. So as you can see, his reason for learning Latvian, is his love for me and wanting to relate to me and my culture in all ways possible.
And of course, being a bi-lingual family, we know that one day we will have bi-lingual children and we will want them to have the best of both worlds, including Latvian language.
I decided to create a blog where I will teach you step by step, the beautiful sound of Latvian tongue. As you can see, the site is just starting up, please be patient and come visit as often as you can. I have lots of ideas, and I will try my best to make the learning experience fun and interactive.
My goal is to gather the abroad living Latvians and their friends to learn the language, share the culture and experiences.
