Bonjour! Je m'appelle Sascha Salazar. This means, "Hello, my name is Sascha Salazar" in French. I am 22 years old and attend the University of California, Santa Barbara. I am currently studying abroad in Paris, France. My major is Sociology and I have minors in Applied Psychology and Theater. I am participating in the Social Justice and Activism Program in Paris at the Accent Center. I go on various field trips and explore art museums to learn about French art history. I also learn about different neighborhoods in France and how people come together and create community. I am learning French and it has helped connect with people from different backgrounds. I'm thrilled to share my journey with you!
