I joined italki to improve my french by finding a language exchange partner with whom I can practice my french outside school, both through writing and speaking. My name is Susanne Ekstrom. Im 26 years old and I come from Sweden. For the moment I live in Paris, France where I study french. I want to learn french in order to work within the field of international politics and development within Europe or in Africa, where french is necessary. I want to help people learn either English or Swedish. Swedish is my native language, but since I have studied and worked in English for the past 6 years I am also fluent in English.
