A hearty bonjour to start things off!

Bonjour mes amis! Just want to say this. I am deeply and passionately in love with life! Although one could say as an american I'm not very patriotic, as my heart belongs to the continent! I love all things European and foreign things in general really. Someday I want to live in Europe and to that end I have recently begun a career in linguistics. I have had a love of eastern cultures for most of my life as well, although in personal tastes I am more western I do greatly admire the Japanese in terms of food, arts and language. I want to make as many friends around the world as possible. So no matter where you're from, understand that I want to meet you! to all the people of the world, hello! Konnichiwa! Bonjour!!
