Certainly one of the less glamorous aspects of traveling in weird parts of the world is the toilets you will encounter. One of the things to love about the Internet is that sites like this not only exist, but win awards.

I think it is worth noting his omission of Egyptian public toilets (see under ``Toilets I Won't Show.'') I know Josh would agree after our trip across Sinai. Fortunately I was able to hold out until the hotel in Cairo. (-:

I thought that Western Europe was all ``culturally enlightened,'' but these ideas were shattered upon discovering toilets of the squatter variety not only in central Geneve but also at a restaurant in Paris.

The bus station in Riga has dirty, smelly squatter toilets, beware. But I'm sure you'll have fun in the Baltics, I'm looking forward to hearing about your trip.

I didn't care to take a peek, but I could certainly smell those bus station toilets from the ticket counter. nasty! but everywhere else (hostels, universities, restaurants, mainly) has been super squeeky clean.

The baltics are great!
