A Polyglot in Paris: María Laura Ribadeneira on Multilingualism in Academic, Professional and Social Life
Description
María Laura Ribadeneira grew up in Quito, Ecuador where she spoke Spanish at home, English at school, and studied French outside of school. She went to college in the US (with me!) where she also studied Italian and Ancient Greek, and studied abroad in Italy and France. After college graduation, she moved to Paris for a masters degree, where she has lived ever since, and just became a French citizen a year ago.
In this conversation, we chat about language and identity, as well as navigating an academic life, a professional life and a social life in multiple languages.
