Skype to call your ladies. It is a free service for skype to skype calls. I use it a lot to talk to family now. I am just dipping into eastern europe and I am not sure what their infrastructure is like. What I think I am seeing is that most people use internet cafe's and do not have pc's at home. If they do there is mostly dial up connections and not broad band like we know it here in the US.
So, in keeping with my new mantra to save all my pennies so I can visit my lady I am looking for alternative ways to talk real time that are cheap:-). I know about some of the calling cards out there and they are fairly inexpensive but free is better if it works.
Not to change my own topic but I have been talking to one lady in Ukraine and recently have seen my inbox explode. I am really not sure what is going on now. This would never happen to me here on a US site. I am not bad looking but nothing that would generate this kind of response. I have been wondering about how to handle getting there to Donetsk and finding that we just aren't a match. Now I am stuck there for 10 days or so. So much to think about. I just didn't realize what kind of a ride I would be in for:-) It is exciting though.
