Russian culture has a long history and tradition and Russians are very proud of it.

Russians consider themselves as a well educated nation. They read a lot, books are cheap, and one can afford to buy 5-10 books a month without serious damage to a family budget.

Russians are also big fond of live performances at theatres and since tickets are affordable (prices in cinemas and theatres are comparable), they enjoy attending theatres: opera, musical, ballet, drama etc.

Usually every city has a few theatres. The theatre culture was developed during the Soviet times when tickets were sold through schools and enterprises: cities were divided into areas and there was a theatre agent responsible for each particular area. The agent would bring tickets for distribution to every enterprise and school in his area and the person responsible for "culture sector" would organize collective visit to the theatre. I think it was an excellent system since people had the opportunity to attend theatres from the early age, starting from attending performances in a Muppet theatre, then moving to the Youth Drama Theatre, then to Drama, Musical and Opera, according to their age. Also attending performances in a company is always much more fun, which contributed to the popularity of theatres. This is how most Russian people have developed their taste for live performances.

Movie theatres are also becoming popular in Russia and they are equipped with the latest sound systems. When Russian people talk about movie theatres, they will usually say "cinema"; if they talk about "theatres", they mean live performances.

There are several ways that wedding poetry can be used. Wedding poetry can enhance more than one area of your special day.

24 year old Anna Sharevich is another eye opening example of intellectual talent from the FSU.

Normally I always enjoy showcasing ladies like her in order to dis spell the various stereotypes that exists about Russian women.

But I must admit the image of a chess playing Russian beauty saying “checkmate” is one stereotype I don’t mind promoting at all. ;)

More photos posted!

Now you probably don’t need me to tell you this but it’s still worth mentioning..

As you look at the photos I’ve been posting I want you to be especially aware of the “story” that each one tell you.

I’ve noticed that many Russian people are very good at deeply reading into a person’s facial expressions. They have this uncanny ability to tell you a person’s emotional state and their background character far better then most Americans or Westerner’s I’ve known. This is a valuable skill to develop.

It’s hard for faces to lie.. Especially the eyes.. And if you start keeping this in mind as you look at all of these photos I’m sure you will be able to develop your intuition and to learn a whole heck of alot..

So scroll below and enjoy!

It was probably about 30F degrees today with a strong wind blowing in from the arctic.

In the time that I have been here this has to have been the shortest summer I’ve ever experienced in my life. I am truly amazed at how quickly this autumn cold and rain has literally dropped in on us. No use trying to use an umbrella today unless you wanted to turn it completely inside out and then throw it away.

One of my lady friends from the Northern Regions just informed me that it has already started to snow where she is from. Amazing.. and we are only in the last half of September.

Here’s the funny thing though..

I recently had the opportunity to speak with a charming and statuesque young woman named Natasha, who spent last summer in the USA under 4 months of work and tourist visa.

She went to Maryland and waitresses-Ed in the family restaurant, who gave her a unique perspective on the "norms" of American food and dining.

So, to say the least ..

She was completely shocked at the large amount of food that can be consumed by one person in one sitting.

She was even more shocked when she realized that this time National Geographic bi-pedal hunters devour their "Grand Slam" production does not limit itself only to males.

Although I did not have accurate data, like what you see below, I always knew that something was very wrong with the situation Woman in California and especially in Silicon Valley.

Well now I have solid proof.

In any case, I would just interested in getting feedback on where some of you, gentlemen, to live in accordance with this card.

You would have to consider moving to the East Coast, Chicago or Detroit, as a decent option, given the large number of women out there?

Anyway, let me know what you think.

Someday ..

I hope all you are lucky enough to be invited to the humble but loving home of a Russian woman and her family.

It will be really time, "You'll never forget."

So let me go back in time a little and share with you that "I will never forget."

On the first evening of my arrival in Siberia, I was invited to attend his mother's house in our beautiful Inessa's for dinner.

Personally, I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving Day.

First and foremost, I am deeply grateful to all of you amazing to visitors and participants who are there helping to make Russian Women the real truth is what it is.

Hopefully, this site is a modest, but significant as a beacon for those of you who wish to pursue their dreams, to find love, happiness and a little truth in this often upside down world of ours.

Not only do I wish you all the luck, but I would also like to add one very important caveat to this request.

It's always nice to have friends like Jenya.

It works on major architectural projects right now, but I still managed to catch it on the Internet.

We were on Skype and just catching up, when I noticed that it was a different picture to the profile, which was just melt my screen.

Since then, our conversation went something like this ..
