Once you have decided to travel overseas to meet your Russian bride, don’t let the euphoria of the upcoming event overshadow common sense. While you might not be traveling to dangerous places, you might want to follow a few points to make sure you are not taken advantage of as a foreigner.
When traveling abroad, especially to the FSU countries, the best thing to do is to keep a low profile. Showing a lot of money and making it obvious that you are from a foreign country is likely to bring you more trouble than gain. Some crooks “specialize” in pursuing foreigners, and have select schemes worked out to play on your lack of language knowledge and the surroundings, so the best thing is to blend with the crowd.
Another thing to keep in mind is the cultural differences. Things that might be common to you, might not be the norm (or even offensive) in some other countries. We suggest you do your homework before traveling abroad to find out what is typical for a particular culture. For example, in former Soviet countries, when you come to visit a home, it is considered good manners to bring something for the hostess (candy, wine, flowers, etc). We are not suggesting that you change yourself, simply show some courtesy, understanding and flexibility.
Finding a reliable translator could be your solution to many issues while overseas. Having such a person with you for the duration of a trip has multiple advantages. In addition to solving any language problems, a true professional will also be able to consult and guide you on the cultural matters and serve as a pretty good guarantee that questionable acquaintances will stay away (it is much more difficult to cheat someone once a local person is accompanying you). Having a native by your side can also help you save a few extra bucks on souvenirs and tickets to various events – some people will want to charge more knowing you are from abroad.
Being selective is also a good trait to adopt for the time of travel. If you are daring enough to venture out on your own, remember to be observant and pay attention to a lady’s company and body language to avoid getting stuck with a scammer or someone interested in your money. We would suggest to attend clubs with a group of people to avoid any misunderstandings. The best way to arrange meetings, however, is through a trusted dating site, as such organizations can give you more background about a particular lady and take responsibility for organizing your meetings, making them safe and convenient.
Money is an important issue to consider when you take a trip overseas. Plan and budget, so you are not left stranded without cash in a foreign land. You might not be able to evaluate exactly your possible expenses, but at least make sure that you have a ’safety cushion’ of funds available should you unexpectedly run out of money or in case of emergency. We also suggest getting information about the country’s currency and financial services in advance – for example, some places have difficulty accepting traveler’s cheques, while others don’t like credit cards. Cash is the most acceptable option, however, it might also require some planning. For example, some places might not have banks or exchanges open on the weekend – think about your cash needs before the weekend rolls around. We also suggest that you use banks to exchange currency instead of kiosks at the airports or on the street. The banks might offer a bit lower rate, but at least they guarantee accuracy and reliability. You might also consider keeping your money in several places in case it is lost or stolen.
A choice between an apartment and a hotel can also result in increased safety. Renting an apartment is generally a safer and more reliable option. Most rental apartment owners take pride in keeping good reputation and put their best efforts to accommodate visitors from abroad. Staying in an apartment reduces your chances of being robbed or taken advantage of. If you choose to stay in the hotel, your belongings might be less safe, and it is best to keep valuables out of sight.
Finally, you should also take a few precautions regarding your documents. Keep them with you at all times; do not give them to anyone without a reason for it. We would also suggest making a notarized copy of the essentials (passport, tickets, driver’s license, etc) to keep on hand should anything happen to the originals.
Of course, each trip and situation will be different, but when all else fails – use your common sense. Be attentive to the surroundings and follow your gut instinct; if you are uncomfortable in a place or situation, it is best to leave than regret your choices later.

Russian brides are often seen as an option for those men who have failed to find a relationship in a more traditional way. However, the majority of people do not understand why an American man, for example, would be willing to find a Russian woman that is thousands of miles away as opposed to the women in our culture. This is somewhat understandable, but when simply understanding what a Russian bride has to offer us men; who can help but to look overseas? Let’s discuss this further.
Russian brides are known not only to be beautiful, they are also staunchly loyal to their husbands. Russian brides want to be desired and attempt to become the kind of women whom men constantly attempt to win. There are a number of reasons, but the main desire for a Russian woman is simply to be loved by a man that treats her with respect. Yes, this seems to be a little simplistic, but imagine being raised in an environment where there are so many men that are extremely chauvinistic, and are constantly aware that there is a little “friend” named “Vodka” that is nipping at their heels. This is usually the environment that a Russian woman is raised in, and to be respected, as stated above will pay great dividends. In turn for giving a Russian woman this respect, and of course love, she will create for a man a life filled with the riches that all of us men
desire.
Is this to say that we should give up on romancing our American women? Of course not. But we must admit that the women in our country today are, for the most part, not like the generation that existed when our mothers were raised. A woman in our mothers’ generation did not hesitate in taking care of their men as this was both an honor and an accepted form of living. They did not have to apologize for such behavior. It was an accepted norm. And what do psychologists observe today? There observe men growing and wanting a woman like their mothers. Like it or not; agree with it or not does not erase this fact.
A Russian bride? Why not. We men want to feel a little bit like the “kings’ of old, and if we cannot find it where we live, then why not look for it beyond our own borders.

Wedding rings are one of the most recognized symbols of love and commitment from all over the world. Few things transcend the cultural barriers, such as “mama” for mother and a smile for a greeting.
It’s amazing to see how one small circular band of precious metal can instantly say so much. Funny isn’t it, that the wedding can cost thousands and the slim gold or platinum band is a few hundred, yet lasts far longer than the day itself, and is worn day after day, 24/7. A small hunk of metal divides the available and the unavailable at the glimpse of an eye.
Which Hand for Wedding Rings?
The hand that wedding rings are worn on varies from country to country and culture to culture.
By default, most people wear their wedding rings on the left hand.
Countries such as Colombia, Germany, Greece, Norway, Peru, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Spain, Ukraine and Venezuela traditionally wear their wedding rings on the right hand.
There are also certain cultures and religious beliefs such as Orthodox Christians and Eastern Europeans who typically wear the wedding rings on the right hand. And in Greece, since many are Orthodox Christians, they also wear their wedding ring on the right hand.
Jewish women will often wear their wedding bands on the right hand during ceremony, and change their wedding rings to the left hand after the ceremony.
In the Netherlands, catholic people wear their wedding rings on the left, all others on the right but in Austria, Catholic people wear the wedding bands on the right. What are Vietnamese wedding traditions? With the majority of Vietnamese weddings now being Catholic, Catholic Vietnamese families are known to exchange wedding bands at a separate church ceremony. Modern Vietnamese weddings, due to Western influence, exchange wedding bands between the bride and groom, but still include giving jewelry to the bride.
For other countries, it depends on region of the country, such as Belgium.
In parts of India – a toe-rings (bichiya) are worn instead of wedding rings on a finger – and increasingly worn along with finger wedding bands. An Iron Bangle or “loha” is worn by women in eastern parts of India, such as West Bengal.
Other customs, perhaps more modern, include either partner wearing the other’s wedding rings on a chain around the neck instead of the ring finger as more of a social statement of being married.
Materials of the Wedding Ring?
Metal, because if it’s durability is the most common material of wedding rings, and the metal of choice, in order of popularity is: gold, platinum, titanium, tungsten, nickel silver, stainless steel.
History mentions rings of long ago were also made of hemp, wood, bone … and if you remember the old TV show Happy Days – a lifesaver candy.
The metal ring often set with diamonds or other precious stones or gems.
Style of the Wedding Ring?
In French speaking countries, especially France wedding rings often consisted of 3 interwoven rings – representing the virtues of faith, hope and love.
Russian wedding bands typically consisted of 3 interlocking bands – gold, white gold and rose.
Greek & Anatolian (Turkey) wore puzzle rings, which are sets of interlocking metal bands that arrange in a specific order to form a single ring. If the spouse came home and found the ring in a different arrangement, then it may have questioned the fidelity of the other.
Celtic wedding rings are often engraved or embossed with a Celtic knot design to symbolize oneness and continuity. The Claddagh design symbolizes fidelity.
For North America, typically two rings are worn on the same finger – an engagement ring, and a plain wedding band. After first anniversary or child, a gift of an eternity ring is given, typically a three ring combination. This tradition is especially observed in the UK. In whatever culture, we exchange rings as a vow of everlasting love and commitment to our partner, to stay true to one another, and to walk down life’s journey together to experience the new and exciting facets of companionship and physical union.
