: Hello, I'm a French beginner and want to study in Paris two years from now. It seems like a difficult goal to achieve, and it really is, but that's why I wanted to immerse myself more in a French speaking environment to the furthermost extent as possible. I'm originally from Taiwan, have lived in Maryland, United States for the past two years, and now am studying Physics and International Relations at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, United States.
