Stalingrad: digging near Gorodisсhe & Gumrak

[Sebastien]

Yay! Got my Russian visa and will be in Stalingrad May 7-10th. Funny thing when I was dropping off my application package to the Visa processing company ILS, the Russian lady there kept insinuating that I must be going to Volgograd to meet a Russian bride! She said, why would anybody want to go there? Hello??? Its Stalingrad!

Good advice ... you have a chance to do better for another person...

My friend from Pennsylvania has wife from Volgograd and she is happy that get out of Russia
