Hello,
I am a diplomat and am looking at where to go for my next post. In addition to job, language, etc, positions, I'm also considering where is the best place for the girls. If anyone has experience with the following cities, please let me know what you think in terms of a foreigner being able to hook up with locals. I am currently in Latin America and have had mixed results due to my being relatively dark skinned.
All are former Soviet union and are available to me for requesting since I speak Russian:
Moscow
Tashkent
Yekaterinburg
Riga, Latvia
Chisinau, Moldova
Kiev, Ukraina
Astana, Kazakhstan
Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan
Ashgabat, Turkmenistan
Tbilisi, Georgia
Minsk, Belarus
Thanks!

I would narrow it down to:
Moscow
Riga
Chisinau
Kiev
Misnk
Riga has incredible girls, It´s European Union, and yeah they are crazy about tanned guys. As a tourist it´s hell, but as a local, knowing where local normal girls go, it´s probably heaven.
About the others, I haven´t visited any of them but the impressions I have is that Moscow have racism issues, Chisinau is the capital of Moldavia which is the poorest country in Europe, Minsk a friend of mine told me that girls would blow you in the midle of the street (he was obviously exagerating) and Kiev no idea, maybe expensive.
I think that any of this places will be a blast. Try to check some blogs about them.

I don't get it. You're dark skinned and you have trouble picking up girls, but you think you will have an easier time to get girls in Eastern Europe? Eastern Europeans don't like dark skinned men and it's recommended that dark skinned people not travel alone to places like St. Petersburg, Moscow, and other large cities in the former Soviet Union.

Pepini's input is again right on target. Here's my two cents:
Chisinau: while being in a poor country, it's pretty civlized with everything an expat would desire. The town is a bit sleepy, but the girls are beautiful, you will have to do all the work I think.
Tashkent : Locals are very conservative except for few girls who lost their 'reputation' and are now whore'ing at the local discotheque. Of course there's a 20% russian minority, but might as well go to the source. Otherwise, the friendliest folks I've ever met, they don't get many foreigners.
Atana: Never been, but my uzbek wings loved Almaty, easier girls, more mcdonalds, petrolium money.
I would pick Tbilisi, but only because Im a sadist.

I don't know what kind of diplomat you are but the US Embassy in Minsk is in a great neighborhood. There's blocks and blocks of bars all around it. Its classy and things, at least when I was there, are real cheap. There are some really nice hotels that were cheap too.
The girls were really easy to talk to. They also showed a tremendous amount of skin in their normal clothes. It really is hot there in the summer too. Some of them were raunchy as hell and just scary. But in every bar I went to, for some reason had a model looking beautiful bartender girl?
And I've been to a few of the other spots on your list. The good ones are all close to Minsk. You are also closer to a lot of European cities over in Minsk.
Aloha!

I forgot to mention a fact about Kiev:

(skip the intro)
It has the bigest women/male ratio.

The last post isn't as hopeful because the bulk of jobs open to me are in Russia, but oh well. Thanks for the advice. My list is submitted. Will let you know where I end up. I ended up going for Central Asia more than Eastern Europe because I don't want to get killed by skinheads.

From what I've heard of Skinheads in East Europe, I think they're mostly active in Russia.
This is beside the point, but I heard this story that drips with irony, where these Russian Neo-Nazis who had maybe a grandpa or a grandma that was Jewish get into Israel because of the right of birth thing they have for Jews, who ended up joining the other Russian Neo-Nazis in Israel and beating up Jews... in Israel.
But back to the main topic, from what I've heard I don't think the non-Russian Slavs are nearly as hot-headed when it comes to Race as the Russians.

Eastern Europe is not Russia. You will suffer ZERO, I mean ZERO racism if you go to Czech Republic, regardless of your skin color! I´m a guy from South Europe, and I received nothing but love from the people and specially from the girls of Czech Republic, and I´ve been there 5 times last year. I know from friends that Poland is more hard, but anyway chances of geting beat in the midle of the street by skinheads without a reason are very low (if you hit on girls in bars it might be different).
As for Latvia and Slovakia, people are sick of foreigners, because they are sick of drunken brits, but again chances of getting beaten in the street are near zero. Czech Republicans and Estonian hate Russians, I know that because I dated an Estonian girl that didn´t liked russians. People from Czech Republic don´t even like to be called Eastern Europe, but more Central Europe.
That said you won´t catch me in Russia in the near future, but in Eastern Europe, probably next month.

"50% of the world's skinheads live in Russia alone"
I bet theirs some hot skinhead chicks then.
Anybody have any experience with one of them?
