I, the interpreter, introduced myself to Henry a few minutes before the first Russian ladies matchmaking social started. Before coming to Moscow he had corresponded for about a year with Larisa, a 30 year old Russian lady from the Moscow region.

The fact that he was so looking forward to meeting Larisa influenced his behavior and focus during the first day of the socials. Henry was a tall, slim man, intelligent and well-dressed. Russian ladies approached me to speak to him and he was pleased but didn't converse with anyone.
