I also like learning about other cultures and languages, and often rent to students, interns or short term professionals from other countries. I am easygoing and have my own life, but enjoy a lively conversational exchange from time to time. Close to subway and buses, Union Square and East Village. Location is the corner of 18th st and 1st Ave. Available January 1st, but there is some flexibility. Tell me the dates you would need, and a little about yourself, if possible. Prefer 3-9 months, but i am flexible.
