Riga

finally a real glimpse of eastern europe! ive been hunting for the quiet eastern european city with nice bakeries,small cafes and not a hoard of tourists. it seems ive found it in riga(surprisingly). lots of old cobbled streets, very pretty, and yet around the outskirts is the older houses that are slowly turning to rubble. well worth a visit for a laid back romantic weekend!! there were a few stag do’s on sat nite wandering around, but nothing compared to prague or any uk town on the weekend, the locals keep to themselves but most speak english,german and russian(as well as lat!) 5 stars!
