Hello,
I am 27 years old and live in Baltimore, Maryland. My Grandparents and father were both native of Odessa, Russia. The 3 of them passed away one after another all before I reached 3 years old and I never had the opportunity to learn Russian langauge and customs of it's people.
The older I get, the more I want to learn about my heritage.
Please understand that I cannot speak or read Russian at this time, and am pretty well overwhelmed by all of this new material. It is my wish to learn and someday visit Russia.
I am looking for a patient Russian penpal, whom does not regard my interest as a joke, and not treat it as such.
My screen name is indeed my last name.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
