Hello Everyone, My name is Maria. I grew up in Brooklyn but have moved around the northeast a lot and have been in Manhattan for the last 10 years. I have a very anti-social job (cancer researcher) and work-place, so meeting people is difficult and I would love to make some cool new friends. I'm teaching myself to play the guitar, badly lol, and am trying to learn to speak French since I understand it very well but need to practice talking. I'd love to meet someone with whom to practice my french or have drinks, ride a bike and explore the city with or any number of fun things
