The memories of G. Bergmann shows that he enjoyed peacefull, easy going, idillic life-style. He built a small hut on the island of Āraiši lake, where he spent a lot of time reading his favorite book "Robinson Crusoe" by D. Defo. G. Bergmann tried to imitate the lonely and primitive life style described in the book. On the basis of this work he made his conclusions on cultural level of the Baltic tribes in the 12th century. Illustration of the island by G. Bergmann is included in his later work "Geschicthe von Livland".

Serving at Āraiši [in German: Arrasch] G. Bergmann learned Latvian language. His sources were the works of Christoph Fürecker, Georg Mancel, as well translation of the Bible by Ernst Glück.

Already in this period he opposed the mysticism and pietism of the hernhunt.
