Well, the snow melts and Spring is here.

And although I would like to tell you that Russia is a great spring ..

To start this season is just the opposite.

Because now it's really dirty, muddy and messy affair.

Walking around town is like to go maze filled with traps dirt, oil spots and slushy pools of black water.

Our lovely Maria will be back soon.

I thought it might be a good opportunity for you to present her with any questions you might have about her or her background as a Russian girl on the comments below.

I'm sure she is looking forward to this ..

So let's see what kind of interactive adventures we can have here.

Look at the following article from CNN.

    (CNN) - Looking for Love This Valentine's Day? Make sure the arrow of Cupid does not hit your wallet.

    That's exactly what happened to Kim Kossie, a woman in Houston, Texas. Kossie joined an online Christian dating site after a friend recommended it. She thought she met the man of her dreams ... an artist from London.

    "He sent these wonderful pictures. This guy was quoting scripture. We prayed every day," she says. "It was almost like a dream guy."

    They talked on the phone several times a day, every day. It was interesting. He gave great advice. He was even should visit his parents in Houston. But then he started asking for money, with promises to pay for it. After two months, Kossie wired him a total of $ 2.000. Not to mention the phone bill she was stuck with for $ 1500. Until now she had not seen him - or her money.

    And, unfortunately, Kossie is not alone. Complaints about the mediation services and Internet dating sites at an all time high on the report of February from Better Business Bureau. In fact, complaints have risen 73 percent in 2006 from the previous year. This year's complaints towards record levels.

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.

It was the first time I've ever been in a normal Russian at home and my first task was mental to get used to a small living space throughout the apartment.

If you read my previous stories about the meeting Inessa and her lovely family ..

You might recall that I was very impressed by the level of warmth and hospitality that I received from them when I arrived in Siberia.

In short, I was incredibly moved ..

I had a feeling that something special, as it had to happen, so I decided to be prepared.

Previously, before my arrival, I took it upon myself to take a collection of photos I Inessa was combined them into a collage for her and her mother.

I created a nice 8 x 10 glossy .. framed it nicely .. And then embellished it with some decent wrapping paper.

I came across an old article that confirmed a lingering suspicion I've always had a Feminist, Cultural Marxism and Communism.

I've often said that Feminism and Communism were just two heads on the same monster since they both aggressively pushed "forced equality".

But paradoxically, I could never understand how Russian women with their background so deeply rooted in Soviet tradition and history have managed to maintain their feminine identities and traditional nature so completely intact.

Well, it turns out that the USSR was a disastrous experiment with Feminism in the early stages of Soviet history, and they knew better.

During the Christmas and New Year in Russia, you can always see pictures of Santa Claus (or "Santa Claus" as it is called here), accompanied by a beautiful "Snow Maiden", which is supposed to be his granddaughter.

Maiden is depicted as a beautiful girl with long blond hair who enjoys the snow flakes that fall around her.

Well, it's always interesting to see how closely a fact can follow fiction.

And in the case of our beautiful Helena below, I think you can understand why ..
