Here is info about Latvia

Fishing
LINK

Mexican Food
LINK

Golf Courses - Many - This one is owned by some former NHL hockey players from Latvia. Not sure how it works, if you can just walk in or need a membership. There are others.
LINK

Can't beat the beaches but the water can be shallow at times and as you can guess, it can be a bit on the cold side.

Take it for what it is worth. You can google the same things about Estonia I am sure. Come visit.

I've been to both. I almost want to go back to Latvia solely for that dark garlic bread shaped like French toast sticks.

Yeah, that's great and all, but do these Estonian nazis know there are 98 genders and that men can give birth? I bet not.

Estonia is also apparently 97% white

The other 2% are mainly Latvian and Jewish.

I live in Latvia


I would have guessed based on your incessant libtard trolling of an American SEC forum that you lived in a western Europe globohomo country.

How does a soy boy choose a Baltic country and do they all think you are a bitch or are they accepting of your persuasion.

Are you Latvian? My wife is from Riga. I'm
guessing you live there? We visit every year sometimes twice.

Mexican Food

Eaten a couple of those. Not bad, but definitely not US Mex haha

Golf Courses

If I remember correctly you have to pay minimum $1k a year just to be able to play?

Her friend lives in Jurmula and while nice there's a lot better beaches in many other Euro countries. Matter of fact, we're moving to Spain later this year.

And my wife and her family are conservative. Smart Europeans!

From what I can tell they aren't embarrassed by their past association with Nazis and the heterosexual men present as flaming homos. That's the extent of my knowledge of Estonians.

Title of the article sort of implies the answer there

Well, living in a small, homogeneous society is the biggest factor

Ukraine is also better than you think, at least it was before the war
The per capita GDP of Ukraine in 2019 was like $3000. It's hard to see how that could be "better than we think".

Going back a few decades, “going to Riga” was Russian slang for vomiting.
