I was once an International Student at FIU; it was a big dream of mine, which came true. I was so happy to study at such a beautiful University — so big, so clean, so modern! Well, I think you understand what I am talking about.<\/span><\/p>\n

I studied in the\u00a0Graduate Management Program in International Business and Marketing & had such a great experience in all aspects: teachers, friends, the knowledge, the City\u2026 everything was so perfect and enriching for my life.<\/span><\/p>\n

But the most important and lovely of all is the reason why I am writing this text today: at FIU\u00a0I met my best friend, best classmate and the love of my life, who is now my husband. We both had this wonderful experience as international students at FIU (I am from Colombia and he is from Venezuela).\u00a0 We were first the best of friends and classmates, and then, when we graduated,\u00a0got engaged and married in Miami! We were living and working for five years\u00a0in Miami, then we moved to Venezuela and now we live in Colombia. We have been married for\u00a011 years and have two beautiful children, eight and two years old.<\/span><\/p>\n

We love Miami, we love FIU, we\u00a0love our children and we love each other. I went to FIU to achieve\u00a0one of my dreams and in the process, I got to create\u00a0my own love story, and\u00a0today I want to share it with you all!<\/span><\/p>\n

Recently,\u00a0we attended the Worlds Ahead Tour in Colombia, here in Bogot\u00e1, and were very happy and pleased to meet Paulina Mu\u00f1oz and George Corton. George knew about our story and invited us to share it for this Valentine’s Day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Happy Valentine’s Day and thank you, FIU, for so many gifts!<\/span><\/p>\n
