How does he do it?

I'm staying at the place I stayed the last time I was in Riga: Fun Friendly Frank's Hostel and Guesthouse and I have one question: How does he do it??

1. It's the cleanest hostel I've stayed at.

2. You get a free beer when you arrive.

3. There are people hanging out at all hours at the 24 hr bar - and it's quiet in my room.

4. Everyone speaks English very, very well.

At the hostel I stayed at in Prague all anyone wanted to do was sit around and smoke pot and speak French, and since I don't do either I ended up hanging out in my dimly lit room most of the time.

I stopped at Stockmann's when I got here for some snacks/meals for the next few days. I picked up some peanut butter called "Nicks: The Easy Rider". It even has a stamp on it that says "The American Way of Life". I'm glad I got to see Prague, but come on you can't beat the livin' in Riga.



I think I'm going to go see an American movie today. And one of the girls in my room (her name is Ula) told me about a music festival that's going on right across the bridge. They have electronic and ambient music for 24 hours - starting yesterday at noon. I'm going to go check it out. Should be a hoot. Too bad I didn't bring any glow sticks.
