Alright here we go: I am an American girl straight out of the deserts of Arizona studying French and teaching English in Paris. I am currently beginning a Masters degree in what will eventually be Francophone Studies because I love how many different countries, cultures and cultures you can be connected to with the French language. I currently have a degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, as well as French in hopes that I can eventually help save/protect endangered species throughout ecologically rich, French speaking countries. Personally, I am a product of a mixture of ethinicities and cultures. I think that is part of what makes me want to branch out and meet and connect with others from different backgrounds. I love change, so visiting new places, hearing different languages, and meeting new people are a must to keep me sane! I speak English fluently, and have been studying French for going on 9 years, so I am always looking for ways to practice and improve my French and likewise, passing on my knowledge of English :) I like to think I'm super fun, funny, and always out for a good time whether that is surrounded by yummy alcoholic drinks or chilling out with a coffee discussing life. Words typed on a screen can only go so far, you have to meet me to know what I'm really about :) PHILOSOPHY 1) Don't judge what you don't understand 2)I believe you can tell a lot about a person by the way they treat animals. 3) Everything happens for a reason.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I am sad to say I have yet to couchsurf, because my work and school schedule doesn't allow much traveling :/ but now that it is near the end of the semeste, I am really excited to start stepping out of my comfort zone, travel the world, and make new friends!
Musique, films et livres
Very open to anything but I love music you can dance to. My favorite movie is The Princess Bride. I love comedies in general and absolutely hate scary/horror movies!
Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
