What languages do you speak?
French, Swahili, English, some Spanish!
Where is your favorite place in Paris? Why?
Tour Saint Jacques. It’s a quaint and beautiful park right in the heart of Paris. It’s the perfect place to lounge and read a book in the summertime.
What’s your favorite French festival?
Chandeleur because I love that Brittany has a day dedicated to crêpes.
What’s your favorite French food?
Anything with duck. Probably duck confit or cassoulet de canard specifically in Carcassonne’s old city.
