CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi! I'm J!

I am 25 years old and I currently live in Paris.

I love to travel and meet new people. I willl try almost anything at least once. I a€™m often described as a vivacious or energetic €”but I’m basically always happy and excited when enjoying the company of others.

For the next year, my goal is to learn French as quickly and as well as possible. Hopefully, I can become proficient enough in order to attend school in Paris.

What I enjoy: traveling, meeting people, trying to new things, attending cultural and social events, visiting museums, and learning about anything and everything. I also enjoying running, hiking, and doing outside activities (when the weather permits of course).

Other interests include: philosophy, politics, music, and hearing about anything that someone is passionate about.

PHILOSOPHY

Love yourself and love others. Try anything new at least once-- but preferably three times.

Always see the goodness in people and never deny an opportunity.

Music, Movies, and Books

I will update this eventually. In the meantime, just ask! I thoroughly media, music, and movies just as I assumed everyone else does :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking around Brazil and London with nothing planned. It's great to just wander around.

While visiting Egypt in June 2012, I had to leave early and ended up roaming around Paris, Brussels, and Brugges for the remaining time until my flight. Proof that as a traveler, you must always remain adaptable and open-minded. It was a great learning experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy philosophy and grammar. I also know a bunch of random trivia. I am TEFL certified to teach English and have been a writing and english tutor for about 5 years.
