Hello everybody. Sorry for writing in English - do not have russ keyboard.. I hope everybody reads in English here. Feel free to answer in russian anyway.
Here is a problem. My dad is 65, my mom has died. He is still pretty healthy, but lonely and depressed, and stress is not the way to stay healthy. He lives in bid city in Russia, owns couple pieces of real estate, so money-wise he is OK. I talk to him every weekend, but I cannot fly there often. If I bring him into USA alone - he will be bored and depressed too because he is taken out of their social framework.
So here is the plan - Russian Village for parents.
There are lots of cheap raw land currently being developed and sold in locations where working non-retired people would never be able to live just because there are no jobs there - say Arkansas, with it's virgin lakes and forests. And many other places closer to east or west coast, such as WV, NM, AZ etc. I want to find people in US in their 40s having the same problem with parents living in Russia (or anywhere in former USSR) and being lonely there.
I want to create a community for retired russian people in US. They will live in YOUR vacation home on the lake or in the mountains (dacha), but the people around will be russian, just because we arrange it so by buying and building in the same place. You can send your kids there during summer, there will be a garden and a vegetable grove, you can visit during spring break etc. Just a vacation home - ie "dacha". And our old folks will not be lonely there either - with russian satellite TV, community library, Internet, russian store, russian restaurants - little Brighton Beach but in the beautiful surroundings instead of the cramped NYC.
Kto "ZA" - write to Lyuba at LBarrington@cox.net. Let's discuss it.
