Take a deep breath. Exhale. Smile. Feel the magnificence of the Ventas rumba waterfall. Relax. No need to rush here. With the town’s ancient architecture as a background rushing seems out of place here.
Let yourself get lazy for a moment.
Take an example from many town’s cats, they know how to enjoy a moment of laziness. Sit down with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine in one of the many cafes in Kuldiga and relax.
So ….
