Has anyone ever been there? Will she bring over all her relatives? Will I have problems naturalizing her? Are there any customs I must be on the look out for? Is the food in Leng too spicy? Maybe if she turns out to be a good housekeeper/wife/cook everything will be worth it...I realize that some of you feminist types are probably offended by my characterization of her role in the above terms but the agency emphatically assured me that the females from Leng thrived in those roles...i think that for 19.95 (shipping and handling included) she could turn out to be a real bargain...
