Latvia: Texan Style

This post is dedicated to Bill and Donna, our wonderful hosts in Latvia!

Intense is the best world to describe GlobeTREK’s five days in Latvia. We arrived into its capital city Riga not knowing what to expect. Our Texan hosts prepared a five day itinerary to give insightful exposure to the many facets of Latvia. Most days were spent exploring the many historical monuments, discussing missiological practices and theology, and hearing from local ministries and their work in the country. This short week left us exhausted but enthralled.
