Description
Esperanto has allowed Stela to connect with people across countries and cultures, opening doors to new languages and perspectives. It’s both a way of speaking and a bridge to a broader world.
*Esperanto is a constructed language designed by L.L. Zamenhoff in 1887. Zamenhoff created Esperanto by merging elements of Romance, Germanic, and Slavic languages, with the goal of promoting peace and cross-cultural understanding in Europe, and one day, the world. It has as many as 2 million speakers today, including 1,000 native speakers — people like Stela, who were raised in the language from birth.
