It's always hard to describe myself, so I'll just throw some random things out. My name is Mandi and I live in the United States. I am 18 years old.  I'm 5'8 (about 173 cm). I'm a sarcastic individual, and it usually gets me in trouble. I love French culture and British humor- they're both fantastic!  Music is very important to me too. I listen to underground/​rock music and a lot of other kinds of music also. I love to travel. I'm a night owl. I'm random. Have you noticed? I drink tea all the time. I like driving around with the stereo balsting. Going to concerts to see my favorite bands (when they finally realize I live near Springfield)​ is the best! It's an adrenaline rush really. I've even been thrown on stage. =)
  So far I have been to France (twice), Italy, Vatican City, Switzerland,​ Leichtenstei​n, Austria, and Germany. I absolutly loved all of those countries. Europe is amazing. I'd love to go to the Czech Republic one day because my great-grandm​a and her family was born there.
   Let's see... I can look at someone's profile and want to say something but if the only thing I can say is "hi"​ or whatever I won't say anything. Too many people get those wall messages, and I try to say something different. Plus, they are probably just going to say "hi"​ back. It's a vicious circle, no?

I would like someone that is living in Europe, Russia, the United States, South America or Australia, but anywhere is fine. Someone from English, Scotland, Ireland, Spain, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, etc. would be awesome.
   I would like to learn about different cultures. I can speak and read a little French. Any French are more than welcome or people from the U.K. Anyone from a European country, really.  I'm open to snail-mailin​g with someone from a European country too.
  
   As for age I suppose 15-25? but I'd much rather prefer someone around my age.
   Don't be shy. And a message with something more than "How are you?" would be thrilling.
   I don't really care if you're straight, gay, whatever. I only care that you're interesting and a generally cool person. Kapish?
   And I'm agnostic so no religious convos.
I thank you in advance then. =)

Don't add me as a friend if I have never talked to you before. I won't accept the request if you haven't.

Hanging out with friends, reading, listening to music, swimming, history, mythology, photography,​ forensic science, traveling. I love watching European football and rugby. I love taking pictures.

I rock at bowling and badminton. haha.
I like wasting time watching videos on Youtube.
