This all sounds great, but what are the women like, and what are their motives?

Russian women are not looking for a way to leave Russia. It is where their family and friends are. It is their culture and it is them. However, these women realize their options for a stable family life are much more limited in their native country. Therefore, they are seeking men who can provide the love and care they want for themselves and their children.

They are feminine, tender, and willing to share the times of difficulty with her husband, as well as the times of happiness.

After the Social

When a lady invites you to her home, you may expect to meet her parents and family, since very women live away from home until they are married. Also, you will probably meet her extended relatives and other friends who have come to meet you. Since you are the guest of honor, expect to receive much attention and many toasts, and be prepared to offer a few of your own as well. As far as parental concerns about their daughter marrying a foreigner, they accepting of it, so long as she is well treated and cared for. st petersburg woman in light blue

Why don't Russian women just marry Russian men?

Typically Russian men are irresponsible with their work, alcohol consumption, and marital fidelity. Since there are so many lovely Russian women everywhere, beauty is not the sought after asset it is in America.

Therefore, Russian men are not falling over themselves to impress a beautiful woman. In addition, most Russian men are not goal driven like American men. They do not seem to have a driving force to become more than they are.


St Petersburg and its Cultural Attractions


St. Petersburg was founded in 1703 by Peter the Great and a mere 7 years later became the capital of Russia and held that title for 15 years. Over the course of its 300 year history, St. Petersburg has traded capital city status with Moscow numerous times primarily due to whoever was in power. Since the Bolshevik revolution the capital has remained in Moscow and St. Petersburg claims the title of Russia's Venice of the North.

Over the last hundred years, St. Petersburg has experienced several name changes. The city was known as Petrograd during the first World War due to anti-German attitudes, and later Leningrad, after the Soviet Union's first leader. In 1991 the city reverted back to its original name.

St Petersburg is the site of the Winter Palace, where in 1917 the Bolsheviks stormed the structure, desposed of the Tsar rule, and eventually founded the U.S.S.R.
