The past few years of the Brits using Latvia as their personal bachelor party playground, including some incidents of peeing on their monuments have left the locals a bit wary of English speakers. Also the Lat is 2-1 versus the dollar, so our boys wont be throwing money around all that much... Those Latvian girls are a tough sell.spekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06422270738279544224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-27730122978873981212010-03-06T17:50:19.000-05:002010-03-06T17:50:19.000-05:00Meh.

I mean, yes, they are beautiful (if a bit too Paris-Hiltonish for me), but so are women from the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia; even Russia. Met some stunning college students from Russia a few years back; one lovely young lady from Siberia comes to mind.<br /><br />My theory is that the local gene pool was strugging so hard against a half-century of oppression that -when better conditions appeared- two generations of beauty just <i>exploded</i>. June was, indeed, busting out all over.<br /><br />Consider that a woman born in 1989 (fall of the Wall) would be 21 today. A huge number of young east European women are stunning.

Two words: arm hair (for women who have any noticeable amounts). If she was born blonde, it's still fair. If it's reddish and she's freckled... there's red hair genes there. If she's a real brunette... well, arm hair is more noticeable... and darker.
