About the site
Allaboutlatvia.com is the home of the first Latvia-related weblog in English.
The Author
I‘m Aleks, a 30-year-old product of a mixed marriage between a Russian and a Latvian. I had lived in the US for 10 years and in the summer of 2007, I decided to return to Riga, Latvia, where I was born.
Latvia
A small country, one of the three Baltic States, located on the eastern shores of the Baltic Sea. A NATO and EU member, Latvia is a country of 2.3 million people with its capital, Riga.
The Weblog
Created in 2003, allaboutlatvia.com has undergone several designs, re-designs and publishing platforms. Most of the pre-2005 writing is collecting dust in a personal computer. Since then, the Weblog received won the Satin Pajama Blog Award at Fistful of Euros. And then, it was no longer updated for personal reasons. In January 2007, the blog rose from the dead, following a move to a different server and another redesign.
During the move to the new server, all images posted on the site have been lost. Those responsible for the loss have been sacked.
The weblog is based on Textpattern platform, created by Dean Allen.
