Ideal conversation exchange partner

someone well-read & linguistically inclined. would be nice if you’re a student or write often. i made this account for a literary translation class i’m taking, so someone also semi-proficient in english would be nice.

My learning goals

to learn about the details of language in my target language. i want to be able to understand the intricacies between words like “tasty” and “delicious”, so that my translations can properly convey the feeling of the work i’m translating.
