CURRENT MISSION

improve my French so I survive in Paris

ABOUT ME

I can't tell you all about me, cause I'm still figuring it out.
I'm a university student, majoring in linguistics. Teach me your language!

Traveling has shown me how much I don't know yet, and how much there is to find out there. I love to meet people because you never know what will come from relationships, or how it'll make you grow.

I love to learn, so reading, films, and school are all good by me! Also biking, the starry sky and the sea. I'd usually rather have a quiet time with friends than party all night, but from time to time I hit the town.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm still forming my personal philosophy; I guess we all are constantly revising and reshaping it.

"I'm talking about not covering every square inch with houses and strip malls until you can't remember what happens when you stand in a meadow at dusk."
- I Huckabees

"If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas."
-George Bernard Shaw
