There are a million websites managed by Latvians, but here are the few I check out on a regular basis:
Latvians Online is a global Internet meeting place for persons of all ages with an interest in Latvians and Latvia.
American Latvian Youth Association is an organization that unites Latvian youth (under 35) across the US.
Gaŗezers is a Latvian-owned property in Michigan that has summer programs, sports competitions, a resort and serves as a focal meeting point for Latvians from across the world.
The full set of 12 volumes of Latviešu tautas dziesmas, Latvian dainas, are available on the web thanks to the University of Virginia Library.
Latviešu apvienība Francijā is a group of Latvians living in Paris.
Then of course, there are a few blogs I follow, all these happen to be in English:
A Barefoot Rose By Any Other Name is not just a running blog, it's a weight loss, travel, live smiley blog written by a very strong, barefoot woman.
Chunk and KJ have a great thing going at Chunk and KJs Adventure documenting their travels across the US. They also have the added distinction of being the first blog by Latvians I ever read!
Diana smaida.... Not only a mommy blog, it is a moving-back-to-Latvija blog, a blog about teaching and a blog about life.
Hello Latvia, Marianna's blog about motherhood, but the gorgeous photos have me hooked.
A photography blog, Inga Vītols Photography has it all; stunning photographs, interesting subjects and an informative and well-researched commentary!
The travel blog about the world adventures of Linda and Ēriks: Lindriks. Although they didn't make it to Clermont-Ferrand, there are tons of great pictures and anecdotes about the corners of the globe they did visit!
I wish I had found San's Life of a West Coast Latvian before my wedding, it was a wonderful DIY wedding planning guide and source of ideas; however, it has morphed into a very cool blog about west coast life, and she finds the coolest Etsy stuff!
Life out of Latvia (an Interim) is Kaija's blog documenting her life in grad school.
Mamma M over at Mamma 'Round the World is an Latvian-American now living in Laos, who blogs about being a mom, expat and Latvian, and her travels and adventures living abroad.
La-La-Liene is another American-Latvian who blogs about life as an adoptive mother and military wife with CHD at her site Never a Dull Moment in La-La-Land.
A fellow expat, Our Adventures... is documenting life in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, Malaysia.
Līga has two blogs documenting two of her great loves, running, and tortes. For the cooks among you, I recommend visiting Quest for the Perfect Torte for some delicious-looking recipes, and for those that want to run off the torte calories, 1000 km a Year might be more your style!
A Suitcase Teacher is documenting this teacher's adventure as she moves to Kuwait.
Ima just started a new chapter in her blog, travelivenjoy, about a semester in Turku, Finland. (Previous chapters were about her Master's degree studies at the University of Latvia and teaching in the Lorraine region of France.)
Winter's Edge, an art blog by Sleep late... dream more... and enjoy the details. The Latvian definitely coming across in pieces like "Latvian Graffiti."
Author Zinta Aistars blogs at Zinta Aistars: On a Writer's Journey. I enjoy her prose just as much as her photography, I always save her posts for moments I can curl up with a cup of coffee or tea...
