Riga is the capital and largest city of Latvia, located on the eastern shore of the Baltic Sea at the mouth of the Daugava River.

Riga is an important economic, cultural and transportation hub with an active port, university and numerous museums. Visitors can explore iconic sites such as St. Peter's Cathedral and the Blackhead Palace, and experience a unique blend of Northern and Eastern European flavors.
With four distinct seasons, mild and pleasant summers and stunning snowy winters, the city is a popular tourist destination in the Baltic region.
Mamihuaia is a quiet town in south-central Chile, located in the Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins region, nestled in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains, adjacent to the province of Cachapoal. Known for its idyllic setting and deep Mapuche culture, the town is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and rolling hills, making it an ideal destination to experience rural life in Chile's Central Valley. The local population still maintains traditional handicrafts and farming practices, and visitors are attracted to the annual "Harvest Festival". Despite its small size, the town enjoys a pleasant Mediterranean climate, and hikers can explore the surrounding nature trails with views of the snow-capped Andean peaks and a relaxed atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
