Michael and Elena Pipkin

Hi, my name is Michael and I found my true love here on the VolgaGirl website. She is everything I was looking for, and everything I was looking to avoid in an American woman. I got the idea to look for my perfect mate overseas because I was tired of the problems from “local” girls. Russia offers women who embody the old world values missing in our society.

We have been married now for almost one year. In February she gave birth to our beautiful son. Like all relationships, there are highs and lows. I can promise you that the highs far outnumber the lows. I never knew that I could be so happy. Even my family adores Elena.

Her taste in decorating has made our house a real home. I really look forward to coming home every night. And very soon Elena’s own daughter will join us here, and my family will be complete and together under one roof. It sure doesn’t get any better than this.

Dear Dave, Helen and Lana;

I wanted to take a moment on my last morning in Tolyatti to write you a short letter.  When I saw the pictures of the apartment,  I was impressed.  But, having  now spent the last 2 weeks here,  I can say I am quite pleased that I chose to spend these 2 weeks in your apartment! When I arrived, the place was very clean, well maintained and looked fabulous!  You have everything here a person would need whether they are staying for a few days, or 2 weeks like I have.  The comfort of the apartment has made me feel at home even though I am a great many miles from home.

 

Having now met both Helen and Lana, I can see why Volga Girl is such a great agency!  Dave, these two girls are a wonderful asset!  I sincerely wish Volga Girl much success in 2009 and beyond!  Helen, thank you so much for extending such warm hospitality to me.
 

Sincerely,

 Robert

Hi Helen, I've been back for a few hours now from my first trip to Russia... yes, exhausted... to say the least.  I am very calm and determined.  2 traits I didn't have coupled together before my trip.

You've been instrumental in guiding me to attain my goals of love.

Lana has also been a divine tool along with everything you represent at A Volga Girl... I'm a poster child, an excellent spokesperson, and a living example that when your heart's in the right place God does make the way clear.

Anna is the woman of my dreams... and I know it will take a daily, sometimes momentarily, choice we both choose in creating our reality we aim to choose to create.  I don't even need to say I have no regrets in running with my heart in the manner I did.  But I have to say how grateful I am to have you, Lana, Dave and everyone else instrumental in Anna & I realizing our dreams.

This is just the beginning and I know we will have to work hard to continue our growing love.

I plan to return in 3 to 4 months.  I will begin to save immediately.  This time my trip will be minus all the pitfalls I made on this first trip.  I would like to coincide my trip if and when the fiancee visa project is fully realized.  Please keep me updated on this!

I had a great time in Russia!!  I owe you, Helen, Elena, Ludmilla, and Andre a very big thank you!!  I cannot imagine how frustrating it would have been without them.

Please give them my best regards and tell them that I was glad I got to meet such nice people on this trip.

There a few thing I would like to request.  After talking to Nastya, she has little idea about what can happen next.  I would like her to contract Helen or someone at your office to give her an "introduction" to the visa process, life in the US, expectations, etc.  I've communicated a lot to her and will continue to do so, but what I can't really do is to tell her what the big cultural differences are.  I know your staff has more knowledge in this area.  I was also hoping that there are some Russian ladies with American husbands in the US that she could communicate with.

I believe that we are at the point where was are moving forward and I wish to have another visit to see her.  I want to book a vacation for both of us...I was thinking the Greek islands.

I would like Nastya to be able to talk to someone at your office anytime she has questions.  I am willing to keep a balance on hand to pay for this service if you will just let me know what I would need to deposit.  Also, do I owe any additional money beyond the $325.00 to your organization for the services they've provided?

 

You guys are great!! :)

Hello Tommy,                             April 21, 2007

I am very happy for you two.  This kind of good news is what makes this business a worthwhile endeavor.  Thanks for the vote of confidence in my company and staff, we really appreciate that.  Nastya, is welcome to talk with my staff at anytime and this is a free service.  As far as talking with a lady from our site you has moved to the US, my wife (Elena), moved here in September 2006 and has adjusted nicely.  Maybe I could arrange a telephone call between them. 

I haven't really heard of any big problems with ladies adjusting to the US.  The biggest hurdle is for them to learn English.  The single most area where you could help her to be more comfortable when moving to the US is English lessons.  You can look at the different package deals on the website and order one, if interested.  We give private lessons from professional English teachers.

Also, when you become engaged, we can assist in the preparation of documents to support your "Fiancée Visa Petition".  The cost for this service is $300 and it starts when you have notified us to proceed.  Helen will make an appointment with Nastya to getting the process going.  Once a petition has been sent to the USCIS, it takes 90 for approval, and another 60 days for the lady to get her VISA.  She will have to go to the US Embassy in Moscow for an interview.

Your deposit on your account covered all costs and you still have a balance remaining.  We are at your service and are prepared to proceed as you request with additional services.

Regards,

Dave Knabel

"A Volga Girl"

President
