After leaving Tartu, I try and make my way over to Cesis. Problem, is the last bus of the day only goes to Valmiera (both in Latvia).
After a failed hitching attempt, I don’t make it out of Valmiera, but a lovely couple takes it upon themselves to get me to a cheap hotel. Speaking with a few locals, we end up going to a local sports facility that happens to also serve as a hostel.
In the morning, I walk around to find the running track, kids practicing hurdles and one of the best weights gyms I’ve seen in my life. Unfortunately I have to leave that same day.
