PM: So, you?re an American, living in Moscow?
SG: Yes, I?m American and currently living in the Moscow, Russian Federation, and back to being a full time student. I?m working towards an international MBA, and currently in a language (Russian) emersion program, prior to being allowed to attend Moscow State University.
PM: What?s your typical day there like?
SG: I spend six hours in school, two on the metro, two and a half hours of homework balanced by a set of correspondence with India, Turkey, USA (East and West coast) so I?m living in a ?flattened world (The World is Flat ) and working five or so hours on Challenge2Society?s website.

I had just come back from a trip to the U.S. back in 2004 when I first learned about Any Soldier. I had noticed many servicemen walking around in dessert-color fatigues, headed for Iraq or Afghanistan. When I found myself face to face with soldiers at the airport, I wanted to go up and ask how I could support them, and let them know that Americans everywhere cared about them...but I didn?t know where to begin. Finally, after arriving back in France, I decided to go online. This is what I found: Any Soldier and years later, I still can't stop singing its praises.
