Zdravstvuj from Florida, USA

I traveled with a friend to Riga, Latvia a few years ago to meet his new woman and her family.

Everyone was so warm & friendly and I was really happy for them as they eventually got married, and are living in the next town from me.

They used an attorney to handle all the immigration paperwork and everything went really well.

As a widower, now that my wife has passed away, i am wondering if there is a possibility I could be as happy they are?

What happens next is ANYONE'S GUESS !

Sasdarovje !

Welcome!
You absolutely can. Read up on the members stories and figure out who you're looking for. It's quite an adventure!

Stevie, Welcome to RUA.

My condolences on the passing of your wife.

If you read the different trip reports and study what was successfull you will have allot of insight. Ask questions and you will hear different opinions, figure out what fits your situation best.

Unless it is your thing there is a political side of RUA with some strong opinions shown. A thick skin is necessary.
