We went for a ride π It was a bit too exciting for me as I'm not comfortable on water and we driving around Riga where the river looks almost like sea, and it was windy, we had waves and I almost peed in my pants π
I didn't hear about this statue before!! Now, we have to go back π
Thank you for stopping by!
Yes, fear of water can sometimes be a disadvantage, often to see certain places or get there you have to be in a boat, but never say never.
From my own experience I can tell you that until a few years ago I was afraid of flying, I didn't even want to hear about it, but I took heart and for the first flight of my life I chose a destination in Africa, as far away as possible, I said that if I get away from here everything will be fine.
And since flying for the first time, air travel has become my passion, I was able to get rid of this fear.
No, no, no, it doesn't really work like this for me with water π I would much rather die in a plane crash than drown in water. That's my worst nightmare. I'm a bad swimmer, so if something would happen I WOULD DIE, so I try to avoid being on water as much as I can. Taking a sightseeing boat was a real challenge for me π Once I took a ferry in Italy and not only I was scared to death but I also became soooo sea sick! Not one of my finest moments π
Indeed, in your case it's good to stay away from the water, but still rather than feeling bad you'd rather avoid visiting sights that involve a boat.
From my experience as a traveller I can say that I had the opportunity to visit some spectacular sights, reaching them of course by boat or ship.
There's no point in bringing up what a unique feeling you can get when you do a dive, this I tell you from experience on a dive I did in Greece, hehe.
After all, you know your limits and you know where your comfort zone lies.
