As someone from a pretty small area I really want to branch out and meet different people from different walks of life. It would help diversify my view of the world. I also am trying to hone in on my French before I return to do my phD so I want to be at a good place with it. I really want to engage with someone that holds similar interests, I tend to be very extroverted in nature which can be a huge clash with most of my inner circle that tends to be introverts, so meeting another person that likes to engage more socially would be nice!
