About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people in Montpellier and become fluent in French

ABOUT ME

I love meeting people from different cultures other than my own! I love traveling because it is one of the best ways to learn about human beings. I absolutely love talking to people because they can teach you something new, show you a different perspective about life, and most likely inspire you! I am absolutely obsessed with languages - another reason why I love traveling; so I am pretty much trying to take advantage of the time I have in Europe and see as much as I can.

I am planning on continuing my studies to work of the government or NGOs and live in different countries around the world!

I'd also love to do some language exchanges with people in Montpellier if anyone is interested :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do more than exist!
