I can wrinkle the side of my nose using a muscle no one else appears to own. I live in hope that someday, somehow, this secret ability will allow me to save the world. I am currently spending a year abroad in Louisiana, away from my native France, to teach a 3rd grade French immersion class.

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
To meet talented brilliant incredible amazing show-stopping spectacular people. It's been working pretty well so far!
Musik, Filme und Bücher
I read a lot, all sorts of novels, comics, poems, essays... Currently reading Maya Angelou's I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. I love cinema as well. My favorite movie is Thelma and Louise, but there's a ton more films I could mention. I am really into animation. Many of my favorite shows are cartoons, like Fullmetal Alchemist (ok technically that's anime), The Last Airbender, and Steven Universe. So I am a book nerd, an animation nerd - but not a music nerd. The FBI agent who monitors my computer is probably tired of listening to the Steven Universe theme song on loop, but I sure am not!
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
So far I've survived the American school system. Oh, and on the first day of school here in the US, a New York Times reporter came to my classroom and wrote an article on my work as a French immersion teacher: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/21/us/louisiana-french-dual-language.html?auth=login-email&login=email

I can teach you swear words in French. Or how to cook a mean ratatouille. As for learning, I am both vastly curious and vastly ignorant, thus interested in everything you are willing to share. If I have to give one specific example: I love to dance, but I am really... not good at it. If you got some sick moves, please, please, teach me your ways!
Was ich mit Hosts teilen kann
Wait, wasn't that the point of the previous entry ?
Meine Interessen
Politics, geopolitics, feminism - always up for a debate. I love to study and I get periodically passionate about various topics. My work is a huge commitment of mine and probably what I think about the most. I am into "alternative" teaching methods and love to talk about it.
