The Foreigners We Know
Vol. 25: Stef
Meet Stef, one of the lovely humans in our community and proof that sometimes moving countries becomes much more than just moving countries 💙
She also ran recent Prague marathon, congrats Stef, we are proud of you 🙌🏼🎉
“Hi everyone — I’m Stef, originally from the U.S., and I’ve been living in Prague for about 8 months now.
I moved here during a pretty big transition in my life. After spending 12 years working in corporate sales, I realized I was ready for a fresh start — not just professionally, but personally too. Prague became part of that rediscovery process: a chance to reshape my life, slow down a little, and build something more aligned with who I am now.
Around the same time, I also started my own business as a travel advisor through Fora Travel, turning a longtime passion into actual work. I’ve traveled to 38 countries so far, and one of the biggest things travel has taught me is how much discovering new places can expand us — it opens our minds, pushes us outside our routines, and helps us see both the world and ourselves differently. I love helping other people experience that too.
These days, I spend a lot of time exploring Prague, working remotely, planning trips, and trying to build a meaningful life here instead of just passing through as a tourist.
As for Czech Expats Club, I’m mostly here looking for genuine connections in my new city — the kind of friendships where you can go for long walks, chat over coffee for hours, explore somewhere new on a random weekend, or just curl up on the couch and watch Netflix together.
Looking forward to meeting more of you :)”
