Hi! My name is Elysee Sadia, but you can call me Ely. I’m a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant in France, and I’m also a graduate student at Dartmouth College studying globalization, which means I learn about how people, cultures, countries, and ideas around the world are connected. I love traveling and learning about new places. So far, I’ve visited more than a dozen countries, including Egypt, Brazil, Spain, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. I’m very grateful that this year I get to combine two things I love: learning and teaching. When I’m not studying or traveling, I love trying new food, shopping, exploring new places, and reading a good book. I also have a dog named Jordan, who I love very much. In the future, I hope to become a lawyer. One thing I almost never travel without is a journal, because I love writing down what I see, learn, and experience. And just in case there’s a beach nearby, I always bring a bathing suit too! I’m excited to share my adventures in France and Europe with you and to learn about your lives and communities along the way. Want to learn how you could be a Fulbright Scholar like me?
