Our "Q & A Interview" this month is with Olga, from Zhmerinka, Ukraine.

Olga is 22, she is a 6-year student of the University of Trade and Economy.

Olga, tell us a little bit about your background and your current life (family, education, career, past relationships, etc).

I'm a student and my future profession is economist. I like to study, and especially I like to study foreign languages. I speak English and in the nearest future I would like to start learning German. I am single and I do not have any children. I like sports, hold a very healthy life style and I do not have any vices, meaning I do not smoke and I do not drink. If to speak about my character, I would say that I am kind, calm, sincere, sensual and feminine. I like to be with people and to help them. I like good music and dancing. I also enjoy doing housework and cooking tasty meals. I adore nature, long walks on the beach in a warm summer evening, romantic candle light dinners and long conversations with that special one, whom I hope to meet soon.

Why did you decide to participate in a service such as A Distant Light™? What do you expect from the service?

I am a very romantic person and I believe in destiny. I think that my destiny can be a man who is on the other side of the ocean, the man that dreams about a woman just like me. He also can see our happiness together, happiness full of love. He understands and sees the future the way I understand and see it.

What kind of man you are looking for? What do you like and dislike in men?

I am looking for an intelligent, well-educated, strong man, who is trustworthy and caring, who has a kind and calm character and desire to make me happy. I like sporty men who understand an importance of a healthy life style.

How important for you is a financial status of your future husband?

I value confident, goal-oriented men who are financially independent and who are serious about their job, career and financial situation. However I will not be able to fall in love for money. Money can not bring love, happiness and compatibility.

What do you think are the differences between Ukrainian and foreign women? Why do you think many of the foreign men are looking for a wife in the countries of the former USSR?



Foreign men often talk about extreme independence, egocentrism, feminism and selfishness of Western women. I believe that our women are much more traditional about their views at life and understanding of the relationship within a family. I am proud of the fact that my female compatriots possess such qualities like kindness, hospitality, inner and outside beauty, and I am not the least surprised that men are ready to travel over the ocean looking for happiness and hoping to meet a woman of their dreams.

What do you think make women from the countries of the former Soviet Union apply to the service like A Distant Light™?

I think that girls have a great desire to find a decent man, they dream about romantic relationship, about better life, and about making a happy family. I believe that the agencies like A Distant Light™ give both sides, women and men, an excellent opportunity to meet a lot of people. However we are responsible for what kind of choice we make and for how we are building our relations from that point.

Do you plan on working after the marriage if you move to the US?

Even if I decide to work, I probably will not work for the sake of a career. I would like to have a work to enjoy it, the one that will be for my soul and for building my self-confidence. I have a dream. I would like to have my own business that would be connected with creating an image for a woman. I think that there are no "not beautiful" women... It is very important to help a woman to find her own style, to make her attractive and confident. They say that I have good taste and that I am good with people. I think that I would enjoy this type of work.

How does your family feel about your participating in the service like ours?

My family would like to see me happy.

What is your model of an ideal family?

First of all I consider that a man should be a head of the family. I believe that mutual respect, trust, understanding and faithfulness of both partners are essential for a successful marriage. I would like to be the best friend for my husband, and wish that we would have very close relations. As any woman, I would like to love and to be loved. Romantic relations are very important for me.

In what country (place) would you prefer to live? Does it matter for you what country or region your future husband is from?

It really does not matter. The main thing is not where but with whom. However I would not like to have any conflicts on cultural or religious bases.

How may one contact you?

You can write me, or call me through a Phone Translation Service. I know that A Distant Light™ has tours to Kiev Ukraine, and if you are going to one of their tours and really interested in meeting me, I would be happy to come to Kiev and meet you there.

Across the Orient, elegant traditional costumes like the blue dress worn by the lady at right are de rigueur for any formal affair.  Every woman who can possibly afford it owns at least one such outfit, in the style that is characteristic of her particular culture.


If such a woman were eventually to become your bride, one of her gifts to you would be to dress this way, on special occasions, to please you and make you feel proud of her.  One of your gifts to her would be to create many such opportunities for her to enjoy with you.


Imagine the heads your lady would turn, and the tremendous pride you would take in having her walk by your side.


Such considerations, by themselves, do not constitute grounds for marriage, but they can be among the potential rewards of a well-founded multicultural partnership.

International Introduction Service Q & A

Foreign Courtship Advice and Recommendations From the Editors of A Distant Light™



Q: I'd prefer to meet a woman immediately than to first correspond with her at length.  Wouldn't that be the more effective approach? 


A: The answer depends upon what you hope to accomplish. 


For men whose objective is simply to get away for a well-deserved vacation, one of our Romance Tours could be the travel adventure of a lifetime, with abundant opportunities for dating attractive (often stunningly attractive) single women who genuinely desire to meet them.  AFA takes care of all the details, and clients can enjoy meeting new friends almost immediately. 


For those whose purpose is to identify and meet potential life partners, however, there is no substitute for adequate preparation.  Clients who lack the necessary patience to establish and develop meaningful relationships before rushing to meet the prospective foreign brides might succeed in finding suitable partners within the context of a Romance Tour, but it shouldn't require a rocket scientist to calculate that their chances of connecting with the right one among hundreds of available women will be substantially limited. 


The interests of men who are disinclined to correspond might be better served by local dating agencies than by an international introductions agency such as A Distant Light™



Q: Why write to several prospective foreign brides at one time?  Wouldn't that just diffuse my efforts, and risk offending all of them? 


A: You can more objectively evaluate the suitability of potential partners, and be less reluctant to downplay any relationships that fail to show promise, if you have a variety of available alternatives. 


Besides, experience has shown that even very well written letters of introduction to single foreign women seeking marriage can be expected to elicit favorable responses in only about 50 percent of instances.  Typical letters to women looking for husbands might draw favorable responses in only 30 to 40 percent of instances.  Although the prospective foreign brides are eager to find life partners, generally they are not desperate.  (If they were desperate, you shouldn't want them!)  Rather, they will be as careful about selecting their partners as you should be.  Some rejections are therefore to be expected, and shouldn't be taken personally because the women don't know you personally. 


Also, about half of the women who initially are receptive may decide, after further evaluation, to continue their searches. 


So, if you were to approach, say, a dozen prospective foreign brides, you might realistically expect to be able to choose, eventually, among two or perhaps three of them.  (Remember, though, that this is based on statistical data, from which your individual experience may differ.) 


Generally speaking, you'll do better to maintain a balanced perspective and improve your chances of success by beginning, on a casual basis, with as many prospective foreign brides as you can comfortably manage, and progressively narrowing the field as relationships develop.  The women shouldn't object to this reasonable approach if you are honest with them, you respect their feelings and they understand that your intention is to find the most suitable partner, which, after all, is in the best interests of everyone.

"Love is eternal.  The aspect may change, but not the essence.  There is the same difference in a person, before and after he is in love, as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning.  The lamp was there and was a good lamp, but now it is shedding light, too – and that is its real function."

Compact Jazz: Astrud Gilberto  (Verve)
Hear Astrud Gilberto's music now, at Amazon.com!

    This popular American singer and songwriter of German and Brazilian descent is admired by generations of music lovers everywhere.  Her name is practically synonymous with the bossa nova style of her native Brazil, and her endearing voice can be one of the most seductive on the planet. 
    Yet, there is more to be said of this remarkable woman, of which you may have been unaware.  She is also a talented graphic artist.  Through sales of the reproductions and prints of her original artworks (which can make unforgettable gifts, especially when signed by the artist herself), she supports efforts to protect animals from mistreatment. 
    Please see the charming (if, at times, necessarily intense) Web pages that have been created, with love, by this profoundly beautiful human being, 

–––––––—Ms. Astrud Gilberto—–––––––


[The Editors of A Distant Light™ are privileged to express our appreciation of Ms. Gilberto and her work.  Ms. Gilberto is not a participant in our service.]
