Girts Kesteris

Girts Kesteris, a remarkably gifted and accomplished individual, entered this world on the most romantic of days, Valentine's Day, February 14th, 1964, in the enchanting and storied city of Valmiera, nestled within the picturesque landscape of the erstwhile Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic, a constituent part of the vast and influential Soviet Union, a nation that would eventually succumb to the forces of disintegration and give rise to the sovereign and independent Republic of Latvia.
