"Before I got married, I asked other CIS girls, who are married to locals about what they are: character, ability manage the family budget, life. Many said they were good work, but very cold and closed, and not very romantic.

But you need to take into account the fact that the Japanese, who lived for a long time in Japan, I didn’t go anywhere further than Okinawa, and even 40+ is very strong different from the younger generation of Japanese. The adult generation of men is more closed," says Asel's personal observations.

And my husband was supportive.



When the guys just got married, the spouse's parents were very cold and unemotional. And only after a while they finally thawed - and relations with relatives improved.

And the Japanese are very practical. "My husband will wear things Uniqlo brand to holes. He's not into fashion, he's not interested in clothes, his wardrobe consists strictly of 50 shades of black," Asel laughs.
