“A sanatorium in the Baltic states - air, pine forest, a lake with wild swans, red russula hats on green moss. Clean and comfortable rooms, buffet, unobtrusive, well-trained and very professional staff. The Baltics are the West. This has always been the case, even in the stagnant Soviet times. Quiet and friendly town. There are few cars, there are almost no people in the shops. A lot of interesting things - knitted author's things, stylish ceramics, beautiful dishes. Delicious cumin bread and wonderful dairy products…”
