My name is Stephanie, I'm from Colombia and I'm almost ready with my Bachelor of International Business. I'm living in Germany since more than two years and I love to know more about different cultures, languages, and history. I believe that if you are positive, you attract good things to your life and everything depends on the perspective.
I'm trying to do the things that I love and take the decisions in my life following my dreams and my feelings because I think that it is the only way to have no regrets.
I'm really loyal and I can laugh in every moment of my life, even if all is going really bad, I'm really curious and passionate about the art.
These quotes summarize how I think:
" some of the secret happiness and beauty of the life are not in hurry to go from point A to B, but create other imaginary points along the way" - Alin Austin
"Invest in travel is the same that invest in living"
"Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.” – Mark Twain

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to practice taekwondo, I did for most than 4 years, and I loved it, due to an accident in my knee I can not practice for a while, but I'm waiting to do it again!

I really like mystery, crime literature and history of art, I think this are my favorite literary genres, but I also like history and travel stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Germany with 5 German girls and it was amazing for me to have a real and really interesting cultural exchange with them, and also where here in Germany where I discovered my passion for knowing more about other cultures, places, and points of view

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn about history and traditions of other places, what they do, think, and how they do it.
I think that the better thing to travel is not only seen beautiful and amazing places, also know interesting people and get in touch with them.
I can help people who want to improve their Spanish, German or English.
I can share my knowledge about the history of the art, history and the way of Colombians and Latinamerican people live. I really want to show to the world the other face to Colombia, because I love my country and I think that most of the people just have a lot of prejudging about it, thanks to the movies and series, but is an amazing country
