February, 2004
Dear Paul and Olesya:
Here is the letter as promised:
Imagine being in Moscow, alone, in a Russian snow storm with a freshly broken arm .That
was my situation in early February in 2004. After an accident in the Urals, I had
made my way to Moscow where I could theoretically change my plane arrangements and get to
the U.S. for surgery. As I had no hotel reservation, do not speak Russian and knew I
had to accomplish some things quickly, I searched the internet and found Uncle Pasha's
website. One phone call to Olesya brought immediate response. They arranged
for a driver to bring me to their home, found me a hotel room and pain medication
and then working to change my airlines tickets. Although the airlines were not
coopcerative, they managed to make the proper arrangements with minimal involvement from
me. During this period of time, they also contacted my friends near Moscow and met
her at the train station and brought her over to see me. Finally, my early morning
departure was expedited by the timely appearance of Pasha who not only took me to the
airport and managed to see me and my bags all the way to the gate.
I relate this story as an appreciative endorsement of the services for the services
offered by Paul and Olesya at unclepasha.com and at russiangirlfriday.com
Their attutude was great, their abilities are varied and theri fees are very reasonable.
I look back at my experience in Moscow and know that they changed what could have
been a scary experience into one which was pleasant as could be under the circumstances.
I heartily recommend this service to any travler in Moscow needing professional and
varied assistance. They can interpret, act as city guides, and mosti
importantly assist with all the other aspects of your Russia experience.
Your satisfied client,
