Join me to get a sneak peak into what it's like to spend Midsummer / the summer solstice with a local Latvian family. The longest day of the year is a magical time so sit back and join me on this exclusive look into how Latvians celebrate Midsummer ☺️ .
We dance, sing, eat cheese and drink beer as we watch the sun set on the longest day of the year. The summer solstice is a traditional pagan celebration celebrated on the shortest night in the year, in June and damnnnn it is AMAZING.
Big thanks to Elina and her family for welcoming me in and letting me share this incredible experience with you.
