Skype would be easier. However, it depends on who she has phone wise (verizon, at&t, sprint exc.) You will have to check with which ever compnay she uses to see if this applys or not. Some do and a few wont. However, you should also check on the price also! Sending a text through your email isnt hard, and online depending who your sending it to (which company) will tell you how to send a text through email to a cell phone text. So look into that as well! But your girlfriend since she is using the texting she should look into the price, as it may add up because of how far away you both are from one another and because in some phone companys email isnt considered a normal text and as well it will depend on her texting plan. I do know personally though: If she has a verizon phone and has unlimited texting > the price to receive your message and respond would go up because of how far away you are from one another. However, it is possible (again if she has verizon) On verizons website it tells you how to type in an email to a persons cell phone number > you would then be able to email text your gf and she will be able to text you back and it would end up in your email. However, through email watch how long your messages are as they dont fully show up through a text! 160words is not always the case when sending it through email! Through her phone she will be able to send the whole 160 words to your email. Good luck. And again check with the phone company to get all of your answers its your best bet!

Should be able to,you just need to google "send email to (insert her carrier here) phone.It should give you something like number@uscc.net,if she were on us cellular that is.The exact adress will vary from carrier to carrier.Its just like an email except your not sending to joe@gmail.com,you use the adress it gives you,of course replacing the example with her number It could take a while for her to get it though.
