STEPHANIE & MARTIN DREAM OF ADOPTING
ABOUT US
We live in a safe, lively neighborhood in Brooklyn,NY, and traded our city apartment for big green parks and backyards filled with children's laughter and birds chirping all day long, yet we are close enough to all that NYC has to offer, including the museums, farmers markets, street fairs and plays.
As entrepreneurs we have the luxury to make our own schedules.
Martin has opened and run three restaurants and Stephanie has her own Reiki practice. We both deeply care about our clients and customers and make it our daily goal to enhance their experience with every visit.
Family & Friends
“SPENDING TIME WITH OUR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS MEANS THE WORLD TO US”.
Holidays are very important to both sides of our family, so we make it a tradition to go to Germany for Christmas to enjoy Stephanie’s side of the family and hopefully have snow white celebrations with lots of outdoor fun in the Bavarian mountains,. And for New Years, we always fly all to Argentina, to Buenos Aires to re-unite with Martin’s big family and celebrate together and welcome the New Year at a beautiful remote beach.
No visit is complete with a night of home-made Pizza baking or a friendly round of card games.
The Christmas season we spend in NY city before we venture to our families abroad. It starts with a visit to the tree at Rockefeller Center. We always also have our traditional tree trimming and decorating evening in our apartment while listening to classic Christmas Caroles and we love to sing a long as loud as we can!
Travel
In the spirit of getting the most out of life, we have put an emphasis on family vacations and plan to continue that trend going forward. We truly love bonding as we explore this beautiful world, its nature and wonderful people. There is so much to learn from different cultures.
We visit our families over seas every year in addition to traveling elsewhere.
We hike in the Austrian mountains when we are in Germany, we travel to many different countries in Europe even if it is for a short weekend into another city like Vienna or Zurich or Istanbul, Paris, Rome or Barcelona.
When we travel to South America we visit Argentina, its beautiful capital Buenos Aires and often we will drive north to the amazing beaches along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. While in Argentina, we are always with Martin’s large, tight knit, extended family. We spend many hours together talking, laughing, cooking and playing games. The typical Argentinian BBQ, called Parrillada, is always a highlight of our trip!
