My "hubby" Gorbachev
I've been learning Russian in order to get in touch with my Uzbek roots. We had to choose a Russian name, and I chose "Raya". That was all well and good, except that it's the name of Gorbachev's wife.

I've had numerous instructors, both in California and in Bavaria. Germans cannot pronounce my name anyway, one would think they would insist on giving me a new name.
