意味
Time outside of work obligations.
文化的背景
Latvians often spend their free time in nature, specifically mushroom picking (sēņošana) or berry picking (ogošana). It is considered a national sport. The Song and Dance Festival culture means many people spend their free time in choirs or folk dance groups, often practicing for years. The 'Pirts' (sauna) ritual is a common weekend activity for free time, involving physical and spiritual cleansing. Having a 'vasarnīca' (summer cottage) is a common way to spend free time, focusing on gardening and escaping the city.
