Dear Elena,
I would like to take a moment to compliment you... You come to a new country and embrace its new culture and its technology; yes, hard to believe, but Elena Petrova, that insecure blond from Central Europe, has created one of the most useful sites on the whole God damn internet. How is it possible? After all, she's only a woman; not only that, she's only a RUSSIAN woman! So, my dear, not only do I thank you for creating your useful and interesting website, but also for showing us HOW IT'S DONE!

Regards,
**Joe

I am currently engaged to a wonderful woman from Kyrgyzstan and have to applaud you on your explanation on what they have to offer along with what they are looking for in a relationship.

I too have studied Philosophy, and it has given me allot of depth when dealing with our relationship, along with the ability to understand their way of culture and the way they think.

I can only give you a brief description on it and attest to their ability to look at life like no other Westernized Women, At first she was very defensive with her feelings and did not want to discuss "LOVE" I did not understand this at first, since we talk about it all the time. (Americans) I will never forget her first email, and the words she used to describe her feelings, "You are a wonderful man, very polite, romantic and thoughtful. I love your soul". This took me by surprise, ( I love your soul) part. We never think like this, and this confused me at first. I found it flattering and interesting as well, as only one should. I later ask her to explain the meaning of it, and with the explanation came a whole new way of looking at love, feelings and their inner self when it comes to the thinking process of true love and commitment. I had to understand so much more than just our simple way of courting if you will. It took her 2 months to really trust me and open up with her feelings. I am a very patient man and have come to realize the benefit if this as well over time. The most rewarding aspect of this all is when she finally did open up and "let me in". I have never felt so much, nor been treated so well before in a relationship when it comes to ours. (and I was married for 12 years to a "Southern Girl"). The ability to share everything and want to is incredible. The loyalty, honesty and faithfulness is beyond approach. I just wanted you to know that reading your information on your site explained so much more to me. Good work and keep it up.

She has such wonderful characteristics and a incredible look on life. I look forward to a wonderful life with her for many years to come.

Sincerely
Hugh (USA)

Info about Moscow

The Lenin Mausoleum

The first tribes of people appeared in the territory of the future Moscow in the Neolithic epoch. The oldest settlements, dated three thousand years before our era, were discovered within the area of the present-day city. In the second half of the first millenia of our era, Slavic tribes occupied areas near Moscow, these were the "vjatichi", who are regarded as a kernel of the future Moscow population.

A reference to Moscow, as a town, is recorded in an old manuscript of 1147. In 1156, Prince Yury Dolgoruky erected timber walls around Moscow along with a moat. He is frequently regarded as a founder of Moscow, and his monument is among the most honored in Moscow. The Tatar-Mongolian invasion in 1237-38 produced great destruction of Moscow. However, Moscow recovered rather rapidly (in the second half of the 13th century), and became the capital of the independent Moscow principality.

The Arbat

During the 14th and first half of the 15th centuries Moscow was a relatively large city with a big industrial/trade population. At the end of 15th century, under Ivan III, Moscow became the capital of Russia. In Moscow, the Kremlin was built in the beginning of the 15th century, and is a benchmark of that epoch. For the purpose of improving the defense of Moscow and of its inhabitants, a number of defense buildings and big clusters, like Novodevichy - from the south-west, Donskoy and Danilovsky - from the south, Simonov and Novospassky - from the south-east and Andronnikov - from the east, were constructed. The development of commerce and trade served as an impetus for new advances in the sciences and arts. So, a number of fundamental manuscripts, great architectural buildings and the first Russian printed book - "Apostol" by Ivan Feodorov were created.

Moscow was attacked by the Polish-Lithuanian army in the 17th century and was conquered by them. Then the salesman Minin and the Prince Pozharsky organized the People's Militia, and Moscow was liberated in 1612. During the reign of Peter the First, arts and science in Moscow, as well as the whole of Russia, progressed strongly. In 1703 the first printed newspaper ("Vedomasti") appeared, and in 1755 Moscow University was opened. Moscow architecture reached its peak level of perfection in the second half of the 18th century due to advanced Russian architects V.I. Bazhenov (Pashkov's house), and M.F. Kazakov (Senate building).
In the 19th century Moscow remained an important political, governmental and economic center. During the French invasion Napoleon said: "If I capture Kiev, I take Russia by its feet, if I capture Petersburg, I take it by its head and if I capture Moscow, I destroy its heart". A folk army had been organized in 1812 to withstand the French invasion. The famous Borodino battle took place in August not far from Moscow. This battle is thought to be a prerequisite for the victory in the war, although the battle itself was more a failure than a victory. Moscow was left to Napoleon's troops, but before that happened, Muscovites burnt Moscow almost entirely. Fires and hunger compelled the French army to leave Moscow, which the Russian army entered soon - in October. After the liberation of the city a commission was authorized for the reconstruction of Moscow after the fire, and talented architects were its members (Beauve, Grigoriev). The present-day appearance of the center of Moscow was founded in those times. Thus, Alexandrov Garden, and Theatre Square appeared with the Bolshoi and Maly theatres, as well as the buildings of Manezh and the first gradskaya hospital.

The rivers and bridges of Moscow

A new manner of living became the norm in Moscow after its reconstruction. Earlier, at the turn of the century, Moscow was a feudal town, whereas after 1812 it lost features of the aristocratic town and acquired those of a bourgeois one. Towards the end of the 19th century it became the second industrial center in Russia (after Saint-Petersburg), partially due to the rapid growth of railway communication. The first telegraph line was constructed in 1852, it connected the two Russian capitals, and the town railway with horses ("konka") started operating in 1872. In 1867 gas illumination of many streets had been initiated, and the first electric lanterns appeared in the Prechistenka gates in 1883. The first telephone lines were organized between Moscow and Petersburg in the late 1890-ies.

The 19th century was known to be a "golden age" for arts and science, and Moscow was the birthplace for many famous artists, writers, painters and scientists; a number of outstanding politicians were also Muscovites. You are, of course, familiar with the following names, whose talent and ideas were the glory of Russia: Pushkin, Gogol, Tolstoi, Chekhov, Herzen, Pirogov, Sklifosofsky, Vasnetsov, Serov, Levitan and many others.

The Don monastery

Communistic ideas of Karl Marx became popular in Moscow, they were studied in secret meetings by workers and intelligentsia, who became very enthusiastic about them and organized revolutionary groups. Their activities resulted in a series of rebellions, one of them was mentioned frequently as the most successful - The Krasnaya Presnya rebellion of 1905. The July strikes of 1914 were the next conspicuous stage in the revolutionary process, which was finalized by the February and the "Great October" Revolution of 1917. The new government was headed by V. Lenin and the capital was again transferred from Petersburg-Petrograd to Moscow. The Soviet Union was announced December 30, 1922 by the All-Russia Communist Party of Bol'sheviks (VKPB) and Moscow became its capital. The social structure of Moscow's inhabitants started to change in the 1920-ies on the account of peasants leaving their villages in search of jobs and a "new life"; later on the most poor part of population came to Moscow as non-qualified workers in factories and in house building. Thus, the percentage of workers living within the Garden Ring (central region) increased from 5% to 45% during this first decade. Hence, Moscow architecture changed: the proportion of blocks inhabited by workers increased drastically, the city sprawled outside, many churches were destroyed or transformed into "Palaces of Culture", clubs, stores for vegetables or for building materials. The most active construction of living blocks was initiated by Nikita Khruschev in the 1960-ies, and many families moved from extremely overcrowded multi-family apartments, where more than 5 people were living in one small room to individual, although small apartments. They were constructed quickly to meet the urgent demands, and, therefore, they are far from being beautiful and diverse.
