Hi! I'm Jenny, Scottish girl from the west coast travelling through France at the moment and trying to improve my French! I love languages and learning about different perspectives/new ways of life, I'm very open and want to meet people who share a similar view of community and learning along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet interesting , open minded people and travel through France!
