Latvian Debauchery

(Riga, Latvia) Arguably, the face of European nightlife has changed dramatically and Riga is the real deal.

From The Baltic Times:
With accession to the European Union and the arrival of discount airlines, Riga has become accessible to every last lad in London. The economics are straightforward: A pint costs three quid in dear Albion, but in Riga it can be had for a third of that price. Ditto that on bed and breakfast. And then there's the bonus: in distant lands one can behave like a lunatic and not worry about the consequences. For many that alone is reason enough to hop on board a plane - inexpensive or otherwise - and head east.

In essence, this sex tourism phenomenon should not come as a surprise. Riga is inexpensive, attractive and, to put it bluntly, fun (all relative, to be sure, but true nonetheless). These are its advantages, so the city's leadership should use them. It may be politically incorrect to say it, but Latvian women are beautiful; those who think otherwise should ask a representative of any international modeling agency.
Beautiful women, inexpensive nightlife, what's not to like? So, gather up your kavorka and revise your travel plans accordingly.
