Dear Natasha,

My journey with Encounters International has taken a longer road than I originally imagined - but I've enjoyed the whole trip and I've learned things that have changed my life forever.  And it's clear that the 3 years since joining E.I. have been a lot more interesting than the years of searching I went through before joining E.I.! 

The turning point for me was my trip to Moscow in April.  With the help and outstanding attentiveness I got from your office manager Tatiana, I met quite a few interesting and charming ladies.  But it was only near the end of my trip that I met Alla, who had come into the office for the first time to join the agency. Because I just happened to be staying in the E.I. apartment, I was there (lucky me) when she arrived. With only a few words and looks exchanged between us, I immediately felt I may have found the lady with a "heart of gold" I was looking for.

Since that brief meeting, a lot has happened – and I'm happy to report that we're now waiting out the fiancé visa application process. When there is more news, you'll be among the first to know!

I thank you and your staff for all the advice and encouragement you provided during this journey, and for the unique memories of travel and romance that I now carry with me.

Best Regards,

Charles McNeill
