Latvian television and radio host Baiba Sipeniece-Gavare has revealed a lesser-known personal passion in an interview with the magazine "Ieva" — her love of scented candles. She said this fondness follows her both at home and while traveling, and shared an amusing story that happened with her husband during a visit to Amsterdam.
According to the interview's headline, the situation reached a point where her husband began to sense that he would probably have to buy something, most likely connected to Baiba's enthusiasm for scented candles, which she reportedly could not resist even while abroad. The host spoke about the episode with humor, noting that her passion for scented candles has become something of a running joke within the family.
Baiba Sipeniece-Gavare is well known to Latvian audiences as an experienced television and radio presenter. In the "Ieva" interview, she also touched on other personal moments, including her hobbies and habits outside of her professional life. The Amsterdam episode served as an example of how far a passion for a particular item or hobby can go — even during a trip abroad.
