Girlfriend did all the agent work. We're scheduled to go from Piter to Parizh to Houston and to Lubbock (parents').
However, girlfriend seems to have a few things worked out (with my mother) and plans for me to stay a little longer. We'll see what happens--I may have extra free time and decide to drive up. (I've never been to Michigan.)
Well, I know there have been a lot of changes in where I've come from since I left. There have been a lot of new land developments and hotels, etc
( ... )
Also, there is almost no feminism in Russia. (What there is wouldn't be seen as feminism by Western women.) This will cause some problems just because of the respect that I am used to showing here. **What kind of respect are you showing there? Hopefully more than typical American men show us here! I am not a feminist at all, at least the definition that I know of feminist. I mean, I would like to have equal pay as a man. But as far as the home goes, I like my man out in the yard and me in the kitchen. I like my doors opened for me, and I like to take care of my man. So typically I am not seen as a feminist at all.
I learned in university not to open doors or take women's coats. Here, I do that same thing...but I won't mind not having to carry everything for women and doing all the 'men's work'.
And my girlfriend and I met through the internet...in 2001. We were friend for a few years before we decided to try dating. (She even got to hear about some of the girls I was dating while I was dating them--and what an idiot I was with them). Then I came here in 2004. It's actually been a wonderful relationship since. (Maybe except her mother living here. :-) )
Oh, yeah, and she corrected my journal too; her father was the general/managing director of that only cellular communications company in Turkmenistan. Apparently, he was in America for communications exhibitions and conferences. [I know a little about these so I'm sure he had a great time at those conferences--the technological toys are just fantastic at them.]

Besides, I like visiting new places...especially when there are friends to see there.

Are you now more Russian than American?
that is exciting that your gf gets to come with you. Has she been to the US before?
