So, as I'm evaluating moving to Riga for work, I would of course need to learn the language, I know Italian, English and a bit of Russian.

How hard is Latvian? How much could it take to be "decent enough" to be able to navigate day to day life even outside work?

Hi everyone!

I am at the beginning of a hiring process for a position in Riga.

I like the offer, but I was a bit taken aback by the number of yearly paid vacation days, 20 in total.

I worked in other Nordic and EU countries and I was used to 25-30 a year, so my question is, is this normal? There's some local law that I am missing? Do you have more national holidays than other countries? Do you just love working that much?

Jokes aside, thank you for any help you could give me.
