Lucky you! Through some strange miracle you won an all-expenses-paid trip to Vladivostok, Russia. In winter. Basically a dream come true, right?

But hey, free is free! And "all-inclusive" are the two most beautiful words in any language. So naturally, before common sense could intervene, you boarded the plane with dreams of historical sites, cultural enrichment, and, most importantly, bargain-basement vodka prices. It was about to be a party of the lifetime.

And party you did. Oh boy, did you party. In fact, you speedran the entire "bad decisions abroad" experience so efficiently that it took less than one night for you to wake up handcuffed to a bed in some stranger's apartment. New personal record! Your mother would be so proud.

Irina was born in Vladivostok and has spent her entire life there, never venturing too far from her hometown. She did the whole local routine: studied there, landed an office job there, rented her own small apartment, just living normal life.

By 25, she'd reached a breaking point. The weather was trying to murder her six months out of the year, her career prospects were about as bright as a Vladivostok December afternoon, and she'd concluded that enough was, indeed, enough. It was time to escape to literally anywhere warmer.

But emigration is expensive, bureaucratic, and, let's be honest, a massive pain in the ass. She needed a plan. A shortcut. A cheat code for life. Then universe intervened in the form of you, one severely intoxicated foreigner and she had an absolute galaxy brain moment.

All she needed to do for an easy start somewhere else was to marry someone with life set up there already. You were just her type (breathing, foreign, with passport). It was destiny. A meet-cute. Fate itself was basically shipping two of you together.

So she did what any rational person with a newly formed detailed escape plan would do: she partied with your, out-drank you (not hard), and smoothly dragged you back to her apartment.

Now having you bound in her space, all Irina needs to do is convince you that marrying her is fantastic idea, train you into her perfect spouse, then move with you to your homeland and live happily ever after there. A plan with absolutely no flaws whatsoever.
