Latvian girls wear heels walking through the snow.

Latvian girls wear heels walking on ice.

Latvian women will tell the price when it's too expensive. Irish women will tell the price if it's too cheap. I'm talking about marginal goods here.

The family in Latvia may not own the place they live in but they might own a Lexus and a full closet of D&G attire (bought on hols in Turkey).

Latvian women like to note the fact that even the pack of tomatoes was bought in the most expensive grocery shop. This is quite a cool fact. While some people in Ireland would consider M&S or Superquinn expensive, some might know of Fallon & Byrne which is not technically a supermarket, and a few other expensive D4 places to buy food in. In Latvia there are fancy supermarkets. The products are EXACTLY the same as in Tesco equivalent, but the price tags are three times bigger.

Latvia is fun. People are not vain. People are too ostentatious. I'm having so much fun here.

P.S. Oh yah. Girls wear ski suits to supermarkets in winter just because they're Spider ;)
