Does anyone know ANTYTHIUNG about Yoshkar-Ola?

Hi, I have been e-mailing a woman in Yoshkar Ola and she has told me much about herself but not much about the city. She and I are communicating often. We speak of meeting soon. I have fallen for her and she has told me many times that she wants to be with me. I want to go to Yoshkar Ola but I am not sure of the process.

She sent photos of her swimming in the Kazanaka river. I was wondering if anyone knows the size of the city? I cannot find too much on the internet. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Well, it seems like Yoshkar Ola is the captial of the republic Mari El (strange names for being Russian!)

I am assuming you don't speak Russian, so netsurfer's link will be totally useless to you.

Total population is: 728 000

The republic flag looks like this: http://www.mariland.ru/newsimages/flag.jpg

To travel there you need a visa, the easiest way is to organize your trip through a travel agency that specializes on Russia.

The city looks likes this:

And is located here (this was the best I could find... I looked a long time!):

I cannot speak Russian so this was a big help. Thanks to netsurfer and others with links. I need any help. I cannot thank you enough
