CURRENT MISSION

To make friends in Paris!

ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Ashley and I am working in Paris for nine months. I am hoping to make a few friends or be introduced to the city in a new way. I also like to take weekend trips to exotic new places. I like to write, ski and travel and speak fluent English and Spanish (I'm currently trying to learn French!)

PHILOSOPHY

During the first period of a man's life the greatest danger is not to take the risk. - Soren Kierkegard
