About Me

Hi there, welcome to my blog! My name is Helen, and I’m an exchange student from the United States studying in the Netherlands for the semester. I’m double majoring in International Relations and East Asian Studies. 

I’ve always had a love for learning languages, and learning about languages. So, you might be surprised to learn that this course (After Babel: Language Policies in Europe) is actually the first socio-linguistics course that I’ve taken. But it definitely won’t be the last! I’m hoping to take more courses in this field when I get back to my home university in the US.
