What They're Saying About
 Russian Brides Cyber Guide

Mark, MSN

Wow! I happened across your web site quite by accident. And like a good book, I have hardly been able to put it down!

Chris, South Africa

I just returned from Russia, and I wish I had  read your articles prior to my trip. They have answered a lot of my questions and explained my Fiancee's actions in certain circumstances. I will recommend your site to anyone thinking of seeking a Russian bride.

Richard, USA

Your site is refreshing and entertaining and most of all valuable in that it's one of the few written from the Russian woman's experience and point of view. I appreciate your honesty. I am bookmarking your site for possible future use. Thank you for your candor and thoughtfulness.

Great website. And one that is desperately needed to aid both parties. I have worked in Russia/Kazakstan for many years and can relate to many of the false myths you have clarified. I have been with my beautiful Kazak girlfriend for 3 years now and she is like a "breath of fresh air". We share our time between London and Almaty and I have never been happier. We have so many beautiful Russian/Kazak girl friends that are anything but the gold diggers some people portray. They just want the same as all of us. A chance of Happiness.

Thank you for the time you've taken to put together a good 'Reality Check' for all the nonsense currently surrounding the notion of a Russian wife. While I think that many American men may be attracted to the fantasy of the Perfect Russian Bride (beautiful, young, easy and eager to please), your essays made clear the simple and wonderful truth:  Russian women are human beings, with all the glory and tragedy that comes with that condition.

I just stumbled across your excellent article "Russian Women: Myths and Reality" and I wanted to say Thank You for such an honest and insightful piece of writing! It's so helpful to read an honest and objective opinion. Clearly you have thought about these relationships a lot -- after all you live in one yourself -- and I'm impressed with the clarity of your insight and by the way you very honestly explain all the myths, and do not try to reduce your opinions to simple or easy explanations. Thank you!

Thank you for an informative and honest site. It's a great relief  to finally get some straight information and answers on the topic of Russian-American courtship.  Keep up the good work!

Mark, USA

I would first like to comment on your site. This is probably the only  site out there that really covers every aspect of Russia and Russian women. I have been to this site many times over the course of the last year and have read everything many times. Until recently have I noticed a picture of your family, you have such a beautiful family and your kids are so cute. I know how proud you must be.

I found your site, while surfing. It is too bad I did not find your site a year ago... I certainly would have used it. Now having spent 45 days in Russia traveling on a home stay this Summer, I would like to tell you, you are without a doubt the most straight forward in your information, and the most accurate. For the most part every thing you have said on your site is true, and I know, because of personal experience. Anyone I know who is looking to Russia I will point to your web site. The truth will get far more business than the normal B. S. I was exceptionally lucky in finding my other half. We both were looking for each other, we simply didn't realize it... What I found in Russia is much the way I was raised. I found that the Russian women are much more practical and optimistic than most American women. They also know how to be women. I appreciate their love of family, and their ability not to let little problems drive them crazy. Never saw a broken nail upset them much :-) :-) I think your clients will be more than happy with the service you provide. Keep up the good work.

Dear Elena Petrova,
I wanted to compliment you on your very fine web site site! I happened to come across your site, because I received an unexpected response to my personals advertisement on the web from a Russian lady, and decided to try to find out more about Russian women and meeting them through the Internet. I must say, that in all of the sites I visited for information about this subject, yours is by far the most well written, informative and helpful. You have covered every important topic that I wanted to know about, and provided very interesting information about other topics I had not even thought of! As the owner of a small company myself, I think it is wonderful that you are able to provide such value to your customers, and (hopefully :-) still make a decent business for yourself in such a fine, ethical manner. The service and information you offer is truly valuable, and I hope that your business, like your marriage, will be richly blessed.

I thought I would take a minute to just thank you for the information you have posted on your Web-site. I used a lot of the information before I traveled to Uzbekistan. My wife has the same name as you. She is the best thing to ever happen to me. She still hasn't made it to the United States yet, but I hope soon. We got married in Tashkent, her home town, on March 7th of this Year. I have no doubt that it is for Life. So again, Thanks for the Honest and Truthful information that is Free on your site.
