So,
we again in Riga. One of Russian areas of city. Russian of Latvia
the spirit of business is not alien. It would seem, ground floors of
apartment houses completely unsuitable for these purposes are
transformed into workshops, hairdresser's, shops. Between them there
is a severe competition. At times, in one house - two hairdressing
saloons or two identical workshops

And
we shall now be transferred on quay of Riga which so like to
photograph for tourist booklets. Last time quay began to build up
with shops of most primitive "architecture". For example,
this "aquarium" has covered a kind on the most beautiful
church of Riga - Гребенщиковскую Russian old believe
church

EU, that their fields will remain empty, the rich European countries

bogs and enjoy "wildness("absurdity") of a local
nature. " The Forgotten farm ", however, will be equipped,
thus, satellite TV, and all kinds of communication(connection),
including mobile and internet. In
