Julia and Kirk (the USA)
I went out to dinner with one of my customers and his wife. He had told me before that she was Ukrainian, that did not mean much to me. To say the least I became enamored with her by the time we received our main course. Her accent, poise, demeanor, and of course her looks had me intrigued. By the time we had finished our last drinks, she had learned that I was single and she had given me the e-mail of her good friend who was interested in an American man. I corresponded with that lady for a little while, but we did not hit it off. I thought that there might be something to this, so I did what any American male does. I hit the Internet. After a lot of reading, I gave some money to one of the big agencies. That started my ups and downs. I had decided on just one city, Kiev. I corresponded with a lot of ladies for a few months and then took the plunge and bought my plane ticket. Just a side note, Ukraine is a safe country. I have felt completely safe on the many trips that I have been there. I have spent many months in countries all over the world when I was a Marine and it is one of the safer places that I have been to. Just be smart and you will have no problems.
My first trip of 3 weeks in Kiev was unreal. Within an hour after being at my apartment I was at the main square having a beer and talking to girls that I just met at the square. One of those girls, a school teacher, is still a good friend of mine today. She taught me a lot about Ukrainian customs and the differences in our culture. Yes, there are differences. Yes, you will make mistakes and offend a girl, but it is a learning process. I went out with a lot of women during those 3 weeks. Some that I had previously talked to on the Internet and some that I met there. I went out with some girls just once, no chemistry, and others 4 or 5 times. All of my trips have been a learning process. Most girls live on modest means and some will try to take advantage of you, most will not. It is your money, do with it what you want. To this day, every time I meet the school teacher, I take her shopping for clothes and other necessities. She is a friend and I have the means. The day after I returned I was already checking on flights to go back. There were a few girls that I wanted to see. On my second trip, I narrowed my search down to just one. I had already decided she was the one, but I wanted to make sure. Over the next year and a half, I visited Kiev many times, and one trip to the Dominican Republic in the winter. I am a southern boy and I decided 85 degrees was better in January than 15 degrees. Besides, who would not want to go to a Caribbean resort with a Slavic goddess. Now, you are asking, why so many trips. Well, we started the paperwork to bring her to the US, but there were some issues with her family. The US is not the only place with trailer park drama. I think it was my sixth trip there, this girls mother told me she "did not like me." She said her daughter loved me and I took great care of her, but I wanted to take her away. Yes, I did. Was I selfish? Yes. Moving to Ukraine was not an option. I have too good of a life here and could not see giving up a dream job and everything that I had built here, plus I have 3 sons that still need guidance of their father so that they can grow up to be good men. Yes, I would have searched for a job there if I did not have all of those things here. I wanted to marry that girl. On my next trip to Ukraine we sat down and had a heart to heart. She said that she could not leave her mother and did not know if she would ever be able to. By the way guys, their mother is the most important thing in their life. You need to win over mother. I started this journey to end up with my soul mate one day. I did not see any light at the end of the tunnel. I would have continued to date this girl and visit her every few months if I was certain that we would one day be together. When I kissed her good-bye at the airport, I knew that it was over.
OK, I am back stateside and still single. Good memories, yes. Regrets, none. I had dated a great girl for a long time and had become good friends with another (the teacher). So back to the Internet I went. Why did I not give up or just settle for a girl here. That answer is easy. Once you have spent some time with a Ukrainian girl you will know. There was no way that I would do what I considered taking a step back. I decided I wanted to see a different city, so I chose Kharkov. I was doing some research and stumbled upon the Mordinson Agency. I was about to start correspondence through the agency that I had used before, but after checking out their website and reading their business philosophy, I decided on them. Yes, it was a little pricey, but not bad. I had always done everything on my first trips solo and it had worked for me so far. Yes, I am tight with my money, but when I figured up all of the trips that I had already made, plus the Dominican, and many gifts. All for what, I was still single. Maybe I was thinking that I would never get married and I thought that using their services would help me. Who knows, but I made the decision to go through their agency. Looking back it was a great decision.
So here I am again, going back to Ukraine, but without a girlfriend. I was determined in my search. I arrived in Kharkov after spending a night in Kiev to see the the teacher and my now ex-girlfriend. Upon arrival, I settled into my apartment, which blows away all Ukrainian apartments that I had stayed in previously and a lot of American apartments. A few hours later, I was off with Mishael going on my first dates. Over my trips, I have been out with a lot of girls, but the quality of the Mordinson girls was by far the best on average. After a few days of multiple dates, I was down to two girls that I was very interested in. So after a few more days, I wanted to spend all of my time with just one girl. That was a hard decision, because they were both great girls. Well, I made my decision to see just Julia and also to come back to Kharkov in a few months over Christmas and New Years. Mishael and Darya were great about arranging anything and everything. Mishael would call me every morning and give me the schedule for the day. He would call the girls and get locations and times set. He would have been a good ringmaster in a three ring circus. At times I felt guilty because of all of their work. Julia did not speak a word of English. This was not a problem. Mishael and Darya are great interpreters. They are unassuming and low key. I felt extremely comfortable having them there and so do the girls. There were plenty of times that I was alone with Julia. If there was a situation that communication was breaking down between me and Julia, we could call Mishael at any time and he would straighten out our communication gap. Trust me, he received a few calls and he handled everything expertly. I left Kharkov way to soon, but with the confidence that I had met the perfect girl. Before I left we decided Julia would start her English lessons with Mishael. She really liked them and told me that she likes Mishael as her instructor.
Christmas Day, and I am back at the airport after spending time with my sons. Did I mention that I do not like cold weather, well nothing was stopping me from seeing Julia. Another hint, take under armor, it made my trip bearable. Kharkov was rather chilly for me for the next 11 days, but it did not matter. I was back with Julia. Upon arrival at Boryspil I learned my luggage was still in Paris. Oh well. Immigration took forever, then the lost luggage paperwork, and finally customs. The whole time I am thinking the driver would give up waiting on me and leave. I went through the doors and there he was with the Mordinson sign. What a relief. It is not a bad drive. I had tried to book internal flights to Kharkov, but they were sold out. When I arrived in Kharkov, there was Mishael waiting on me. I was to see Julia in an hour and I had no clean clothes or toiletries. I gave Mishael money and he ran to the store and bought everything I needed while I took a shower. I considered this above and beyond the call of duty. I only had a little bit of time to get ready and he could have said tough luck. Instead he was genuinely concerned in doing everything he could to help me. After getting cleaned up, it was time to see the love of my life. The time went way too fast, but as always I had a great time. Even with the cold weather my apartment stayed warm and I was prepared for it when I was out in the elements. Quite a few times I used Mishael and Darya to translate. Then there were the phone calls to Mishael to smooth out some of our communications. As always, he was available and prevented some confusion. Mishael even answered his phone on New Years eve. Now that is dedication. By the way, New Years was a very good time. I think that I might be back for another one. It was a cross of Halloween, Mardi Gras, and New Years all in one.
Well, my next trip back to Kharkov is in April. This time to get married. Me and Julia decided to get married and have the ceremony there. Now again, Mishael is going above and beyond the call of duty. He has gone to the local civil registrar for me, talked to them, and verified all of the documents and everything that we need to be married in Ukraine. He will be translating and getting everything notarized for me. Everything about their business is top notch and dependable. All of our letters have been translated perfectly, the personal meetings handled very professionally, and any task handled punctually. Right before my latest trip, I had not heard from Julia in a few days, and there were some questions that I was waiting on an answer for. Mishael shot me an e-mail telling me she had to go to her hometown for a family emergency. Now this is how good the agency is. They would take my letters and mail them to Julia and then translate the ones she mailed back. The level of concern and effort by them is unmatched. They are genuinely concerned about their customers and their girls. Some of the girls that I met on my first trip to Kharkov even told me how much they liked the Mordinsons. Trust me, you will never hear that from a girl about any other agency. I am lucky and happy to have used their services, and will continue to use them. Julia is continuing her English lessons and there are documents to get sent to them and translated before I return. I look forward to my next trip, of course, but they have made my trips to Kharkov even better than what I could have imagined. I wish that I had used their services earlier. I have already recommended them to someone who made a trip to Kiev and did not have the best experience. One can not go wrong with the Mordinson agency.

Marina and Dirk (Germany)
My name is Dirk and I am from Germany, after trying several sites from Internet and also some visits to former Soviet Union, always with no success and nearly gave up hope, I tried finally service of Mordinson Agency.
I was surprised upon the prompt answer and the quickness I got in contact with some beautiful and lovely ladies.
Soon I started to arrange a trip to Kharkov to meet the ladies in person.
There I felt like at home, Darya and Michael of Mordinson family took care of me the whole week. Both are very nice young guys (perfect in English, and Darya is also very good in German). Later I met also third member of family Maxim, who is very good photographer, and made some incredible photos of me and Marina.
I lived in nice apartment and as they had very well planned I could meet all the lovely ladies I was in contact with. I found my perfect lady, Marina, with whom I now plan her visit to Germany in near future.
In my opinion the big difference between Mordinson and other agencies is, Mordinson is a family business and they invest their good family name for the business and are interested in your success and you feel not be treated like a number.
All the ladies on their website and I met were very beautiful, marriage minded and lovely both on inside and outside. They don?t take anybody on their website, they select only the serious ladies.
I want to say many thanks to Mordinson Agency and I can only suggest any potential customer to try service of Mordinson agency.

Nachdem ich Erfahrungen mit einigen Agenturen im Internet gesammelt hatte, auch schon in die frühere Sowjetunion gereist war, habe ich jetzt nachdem ich die Hoffnung schon fast aufgegeben hatte auch noch den Service der Mordinson Agentur in Anspruch genommen.
Ich war überrascht, wie schnell ich auf meine Anfrage Antwort bekam, und wie zügig ich dann in Briefkontakt mit einer Reihe von schönen und liebenswerten Damen kam.
Kurz darauf habe ich dann den Beschluss gefasst nach Kharkov zu reisen um diese Damen auch persönlich zu treffen.
Dort fühlte ich mich gleich sehr gut aufgehoben, am Flughafen erwartete mich Darya, und Sie und Ihr Bruder Michael betreuten mich während meines Aufenthaltes.
Die beiden können sehr gut Englisch sprechen, und Darya kann auch sehr gut Deutsch. Später habe ich noch ein drittes Mitglied der Familie kennengelernt Maxim, der ein sehr guter Fotograf ist, und auch einige tolle Fotos von mir und Marina gemacht hat.
Ich wohnte in einem schönen Appartment, und mein Besuch war hervorragend geplant, und ich konnte alle Damen treffen, mit denen ich in Briefkontakt war. Hier habe ich auch Marina getroffen, meine Traumfrau, mit der ich jetzt Ihre Reise nach Deutschland plane.
Der große Unterschied von Mordinson zu anderen Agenturen ist meiner Meinung nach, das Sie ein Familienunternehmen sind. Während man sich bei anderen Agenturen nur als Nummer fühlt, hat man bei den Mordinsons das Gefühl, das sie sich um einen kümmern und Interesse am Erfolg heben. Sie stehen mit Ihrem guten Namen hinter der Agentur.
Alle Damen auf der Webseite sind sehr schön, interessiert an einer festen Beziehung und liebenswert, sowohl innerlich wie äußerlich.
Nicht jede Dame wird von der Agentur angenommen, sie legen Wert darauf nur gutaussehende, seriöse Frauen mit ernsthaften Absichten aufzunehmen.
Ich möchte der Mordinson Familie noch einmal herzlich danken für Ihre Hilfe und kann nur jedem potentiellen Kunden raten, den Service der Mordinsons in Anspruch zu nehmen. Dort sind sie in guten Händen. |

Couple of things I found out while my trip by Mordinson. The ladies I met were all very attractive and are genuinely interested in establishing a long term relationship (initially it sounded too good to be true). The service is excellent, the city is safe and the restaurants and food are of high standard. I look back on the time when I was making the decision on whether to make this trip or not. Now it looks like it was a life changing experience that I was hoping for. The only regret that I have in respect of my visit, is that I did no do it years ago. Best wishes to everyone at Mordinson Stuart |

I want to generously thank you and your family for providing comprehensive services in my efforts to find that someone special. You have been extremely responsive to all my questions, concerns and listened well to all my frustrations. I never had the expectation that the search would be easy, because finding a lifelong friend is extremely difficult. In this process, I have learned much about the Ukraine and its people. I have enjoyed immensely studying the history of Kharkov and visiting many wonderful and special places. The restaurants, the variety of stores and historical sites made each trip a memorable experience. I have never been hassled in the streets of Kharkov and more often was given kind advice by friendly strangers. You and your family have introduced me to someone who is very special and in the course of one year we have become very good friends and partners. She is industrious, funny, smart, kind and is very committed to creating a strong family. I still remember the first time that we met and she was very shy because her English was limited. This last trip was most pleasing because she has learned much English and we continued to understand each other even better. Yes, I am extremely fortunate and lucky to find someone who inspires me and is very willing to create a future together. I am indebted to your family agency because my journey is over and I look forward to moving on to the next phase of my life. I consider Michael and you as friends and I have appreciated very much your advice in concluding this very successful search. I believe that your agency provides superior quality of services, because you care about your clients and the women who are striving to create their own destinies. I highly recommend your agency to anyone who is interested in finding a lifelong partner and friend, because I am sure that they will not be disappointed With kindest regards, Raul |

Hi Everyone! I joined in May of 2002 and corresponded with about 10 ladies for 2 months before my trip to Kharkov. It's a lot of work translating the letters to and from the ladies but they always seemed to do it in an accurate and timely fashion. After 2 months of correspondence I traveled to Kharkov via Kiev. They had a driver waiting for me at the Kiev airport and also a member of Mordinson's staff was there for the journey which I thought was a very nice gesture as it is a long drive back to Kharkov, about 5 hours. Once we arrived in Kharkov Mordinson's staff made sure everything I needed was taken care of and took me to the apartment. I was pleasantly surprised by the apartment. It had air conditioning and hot water which many apartments don't have. I gave the agency a list of the ladies and the order that I would like to meet them before I left. They arranged the meetings as per my request. The ladies were for the most part all on time and there were no cancellations. An interpreter was provided for all meetings at first and even for the ladies who spoke good English. The interpreter/staff did an excellent job showing us all of the sights of Kharkov and showing us different things to do. The weather was hot and we did a lot of walking around the city but the interpreter/staff never complained. I felt the service was very personalized and if there was anything I needed they were there to help. I got the impression they were trying to do their best and I feel they did a very good job. The young lady that I met and spent most of my time with and feel in love with exceeded my expectations. We had written a lot of letters to each other so we knew quite a bit about each other and had a lot of things to talk about. She was everything she appeared to be from her letters and more. We are in the process of obtaining her fiancà e visa so we can be together again here in the US and start our new life together. The hardest part is the wait until we can be together again. I am very pleased with the results and experiences that I had with Mordinson's and would recommend their services. Sincerely, Howard and Vita |

Dear Mordinson: It has been a year since my Antonina has entered the United states and soon it will be our 1st wedding aniversary. I have to tell you it has certianly been the best year of my life. The adjustment for Antonina has been a little rough at times, but we manage it well together. She is driving well now and goes to work without a second thought. We are very happy and thankful for you helping to get us together. I am sincere when I say that Ukraine has the best women in the world and as far as I am concerned, I got the best one. Soon we will be starting a family. Thanks Misha and Darya and Max. You guys are great. Sincerely, John and Antonina
