Looking for English speaking friends in Paris

Dear friends,
I am Arshan. I am a PhD student in University of Illinois, USA. Basically, I am from Rawalpindi, Pakistan. I arrived in Paris last night (Jan 31st, 2014). I will be here for 6 months doing PhD research at the University of Paris-Sud. I am looking for English speaking friends and just new friends in general. I am very open and love to travel and make friends. Please feel free to get in touch with me or direct to any useful resources.
Best!
