- Riga Central Market, Europe's Largest Indoor Market | The full experience
Join me on the second part of this amazing experience around Europe's largest indoor market, Riga Central Market, as we talk to the locals, shop for soviet foods and and chat with Soviet babushkas.
Find out from the locals what living in Riga is like and how old age pensioners need to work all week in their retirement!
On this journey around Riga Central Market, we break down the cold Eastern European fronts people have and get talking to the locals about their lives, their work, and anything they like.
Anyone wanting an authentic taste of the Soviet Union, then Riga Central Market is the place.
If you enjoy adventure videos in the former Soviet Union, then grab your Vodka, some Zakuskas and join me on this trip to Riga Central Market in the former Soviet Republic of Latvia!!!

Justin you're so kind hearted and humble. It's so touching to see the way you full attention to that wonderful lady who offered you some spring onions. You're really a nice guy, sky is your limit...enjoy the rest of your holiday...
Keep posting all the goodies...
Hello my friend and thank you for the kind words.
Your comment was really inspired me and I look forward to posting more and hearing from you in other videos.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting 👌👍
Absolutely lovely conversations, especially with that 90 year old babushka, waiting for a foreigner to marry her at 100. Great job translating this all! Thanks.
Hi Anjen, she was adorable actually and still smiling and joking even though her life seems quite tough
One thing is for sure, these are the most resilient people I have ever met.
Appreciate the watch time as always👍
What a great lady. I can only imagine what she must have experienced during her life. Wish her the best.
@@J.E.E Thank you Justin for sharing these unique perspectives.
Imagine meeting a Cuban who speaks Russian and lives in Latvia. Amazing content my friend and your Spanish sounds good. I am from Venezuela but living in 🇺🇸 for over 30 years now. Saludos.
Very charismatic. The camera loves you. The channel is great. Great job. Loved the old lady she was sweet.
Thank you, she was a sweet old lady.
Stay tuned for more great adventures👌👍
The old lady at the onions Place is soo sweet and touching.. i love her
Me too, I still visit her when I go to the market👌👍
You speak Spanish too?! Impressive! Another great video.
Thank you so much Tom.
Yes I do, languages is like a hobby of mine, always learning new ones or bettering the ones I know.
I never miss an opportunity to practice, so probably more languages in future Videos.
Cheers
@@J.E.E Can't wait to hear it! :)
She is wonderful and thank you for what you did for her. You got a new subscriber for that btw
i love the elderly glad you shared her story with us justin
Hi Mickey,
I agree the elderly have so much knowlege and have been through so much, that their age alon deserves respect.
Thank you for watching and commenting. Highly appreciated.
You are a good guy! How much did you gave her? I hope she is still around! I want to visit Latvia one day and meet her
Hello my friend and thank you for your kind comment.
She is a lovely lady and I still see her often.
As a matter of fact, I had some other subscribers that wanted to meet her too, and they did... you can see it in this video!
czcams.com/video/mCwGkv9JUDw/video.html
So if you ever come to Riga, I would be happy to introduce you to this amazing lady.
Justin!
You're amazing fellow. I love all your conversations. And I noticed you speak a quite few different languages? Which one was the most difficult to learn for you? Where are you from England? What city....? I see you can easily make the contact with strangers...I wish you happy & safe travelling ........Best regards from the USA
Hi Jerry,
Thank you so much for the kind comment.
I am from London but have been travelling for years now.
I could say the most challenging language was Russian, but not difficult
All the best mate and thank you for watching and commenting 👍👌
We all just watched this and loved it !!!
Thanks... I really like that one too👍👌
Thanks Justin , some interesting characters there !
Hi Paul.
Oh yes indeed!!!
Every time you go to a place like that it is like a new experience, you never know what to expect.
Thanks so much for watching!
Great journey :) sorry I commented so much but I literally had to watch your videos from the begining to get in the picture.
James, I actually really appreciate it... It helps support the channel, so keep them coming mate👍👌
Karina is gorgeous! Good video!
She is and she was a lot of fun. Amazing eyes too. Light blue with dark hair is a fantastic combination
@@J.E.E Did you actually go back after she got off of work? I'm in USA California and watching your video.
@@stevethomas5209 Do I look like I would miss out on a shot of vodka???🤣🤣🤣
As a new youtuber I am sometimes hesitant what to share with the viewers...
Actually thinking of starting a video / podcast, where I can elaborate on my journeys more, give advice when travelling in the region, respond to cool questions... Like this one!!!
Do you think it might get some interest???
@@J.E.E Yes I believe so. She was a very cute lady. Glad you had vodka.... and whatever. 🤣🤣🤣
He knows the words, the words can't learn in school
This reminds me of a story when i was in riga last time, i was waiting for .y friend next to a railway bridge , and an old lafy was comping up the stairs and i offered to take the bags across to other side, and no joke the bags were so heavy i couldnt understand how she came from city woth id say 15kg bag in each hand, she mush have been atleast 70 as well
The guy speaks very good in Russian, to be someone from England!
Nice video...
I was impressed with this guy's Spanish. Nice.
Gracias amigo!!!
And thank you for watching👌👍
The lady with tha hats was the sweetest
She is a darling 👍👌
Very interesting video.
Those two blokes looking for a euro looked well dodgy. You kept your nerve well there Justin.
Hi John... They sure did.
The market is located right behind the train station and the bus station, and take a wrong turn and you could end up meeting some interesting characters🤪🤣
But it is all part of the adventure.
Thanks for watching👍
Good luk bro for all your trips 👍🥇🏆
Shukran brother for watching and commenting.
More to come very soon!!!
All the best👍👌
Какая замечательная русская бабушка.
Да очень приятная бабушка... Я до сих пор у неё покупаю каждый недели❤️❤️❤️

All the best mate👌👍

@@J.E.E oh cheers for reply. U giving me those bold and bankrupt vibes. If u know that channel on CZcams. Plus I am latvian. So keep doing you and repect for standing up against those gangsters what wanted to get 1 euro from u in the Riga market 😄
Wow un Cubano en latvia, muy interesante.
Si Donny, un poco raro en Letonia. Me imagino que es el único en todo el país 😉
Interesting, what a lovely lady
She was very interesting and so full of life.
Thank you so much for watching👌👍
👍👏👏👏

Epic Estonia
👍
First!
Yes you are!!! My most dedicated supporter👌👍🙂
And so Justin did you meet Karina after work? And have a nice conversation🥰
😉
The man is from there or someone who live not to far from there
Old lady sells because she's bored not because poor
People seem nice, except for the two goons asking for a euro...
Hello mate.
Generally they are... And even if they don't appear to be at first, like the woman selling the glasses, behind the cold facade they are really kind.
As always thank you for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it👌
If you are now living in Latvia, why aren't you learning to speak Latvian? It seems like you are quite eager to speak Russian to everybody. It's commendable that you are so proficient in Russian, but the native Latvians would appreciate an attempt to speak in their own language, not the language of the former occupiers! Sorry, if this offends you, but it would be nice to give the impression that this is Latvia, not Russia!
Labu laimi!
Hello and thank you for your comment.
I hope you realise that this is not all of my life I put on camera but only a tiny portion!!!
Having made that clear, let me try and explain.
1. I don't think at any point of the Video or any video have I ever said I was not learning Latvian. As a matter of fact I am even though I realize that one day when I no longer live in Latvia it will probably serve me more as a novelty language than one I would use regularly.
2. I am confident that the people that watch my videos want to get some local interaction and unfortunately at the present time I am only able to do that in about six languages and Latvian is not yet one of them, but we are working on changing that!!!
3. Practicing my limited knowledge of Latvian on camera would not make for much educational or entertaining content.
4. I certainly did not take any offense by your comment and I hope you understand that I mean no offense when I speak Russian because to me it is an amazing, rich language that I love to practice with no historical or political motive.
I hope this may shed some light on your concerns.
All the best!
Latvia is Northern County. Not Eastern County! Don't make this mistake again
I am the only one that sees D Trump in the clouds at the r beginning
Don't make this mistake again
