Once upon a time, in a small small town
in the heart of Catalunya, there was living M, a girl who had a very
big dream: she wanted to travel, go abroad, discover the world and
all it's wonders.
One day she made up her mind and
decided to go for that dream, so she took all her things and flied
far away. She landed in a new place, unknown and very different from
where she came from, a land called Latvia. This place was
fascinating! It was quite small and half of it was forest, the little
towns were full of traditions and a big love for culture, the
inhabitants had beautiful and colorful gardens, the nature was alive.
M arrived in one of those small towns
that won her heart: Kuldīga, a city with a soul, the pearl of
Kurzeme. A charming and quiet place, with peaceful streets, old
houses, wonderful landscapes and an incredibly large waterfall! Yes,
this was the perfect place where to start her story.
Summer ended and autumn started
painting everything with amazingly beautiful colors. And then it
started, all the citizens started to warn the girl about the winter,
they said that it would be very cold and white, full of snow and with
temperatures around -25 degrees. M was frightened, she wasn't even
able to imagine how it could be so cold because she was used to
another kind of weather, that's why at the same time she was very
curious about it and was looking forward winter's arrival.
The days went by and the cold didn't
increase, December had already arrived and there was no sign of the
snow. M received news about her family who said that in her hometown
it was very cold and it was even snowing! Everything started to look
so unreal, the weather was getting crazy and the young girl was so
disappointed, still waiting for the snow.
One rainy day, she met with her friend
to bake a delicious honey cake. They were both in the kitchen,
preparing the cake, cooking something else to eat, talking... And
suddenly, they looked through the window and a big snow storm was
falling! The excitement began: they started to scream, jump and
laugh, finally they had what they where waiting for so much, the
weather had completely changed in the blink of an eye, the snow had
finally arrived in a great surprising way.
The following day, when they got up,
everything was completely white, incredibly beautiful. But despite
the amusement of M, she didn't feel very good, she had just got ill.
Luckily, she had a fairy godmother in Kuldīga who always took care
of her, provided her with warm clothes and shoes and gave her
anything she needed. This time, the fairy godmother took
responsibility of M's health and with a little bit of magic she got
better very fast and could go outside to enjoy Kuldīga full of snow
and Christmas lights, a truly fairy tale town.
