I can not believe you don't even have a clue where she lives. You might just want to learn a little more about this lady, Russia and the language. It just doesn't sound too promising.

Find Kazan and go up 150 km north and you will see next to a river. Try this forum forum.yoshkar.com also there are three yoshkar-ola forum in Yahoo. You can only book a B&B on the net. Just rent a flat through these "marriage" agencies. Try www.marriage-4u.com and speak Elmira or www.yoshkar-ola.com and speak with a Nikolai You can rent a flat cheaper and better than a hotel. You can tell them I sent you. So Joe, you fly to Moscow, from here you can either fly to Kazan or take a train to Yoshkar-Ola. a flight will cost you 70 USD one way and about 1.5 hours. You can request a person to pick you at the airport which is 1500 roubles (one way I think) then will take you to your flat(3 hour drive). Train to YO is about 20 hours and it is Kazanshyay Train Terminal. Taxi to this station and the train leaves (I think ) 11am. You will arrive in YO next morning at 6am. Train Compartments are very comfortable, but make sure you do not take the Plackharts, but private quarters.

It doesn't matter if Joe sends money to the lady or he spends his money to go there. Something seems fishy here.

Why won't you just assume that people will use their common sense. He'll be better served if we just help him with answering the tougher questions, instead of returning to the usual flame-bait warnings. Mediashark, Joe and I actually used the chat board in here for a while and believe me: he's probably seen more of the world than most of us..
