Oh, so you're the wise one on Gin'y blog that said 'say yes to everything!' Wise woman!! I love this posting...it's kinda like India too...except no blondes here except expats..but the fact of being taller than most men is the same for me too. I always say I never worry about my personal security a) because it's not scary here but b) because I am taller and stronger than most men here! You shoulda seen the look on the faces of two men when they were leering at me on a run and I decided to chase after them screaming 'assholes!' Heh. I am so funny...and India gets to me sometimes!! Love ya.

Czech Republic can trump Mexico: they still play Milli Vanilli on the radio here! Can you believe that!?
