Ideal language community partner

Someone who can help me actually speak in Spanish! I’m afraid to speak and I end up responding in English because I’m embarrassed to pronounce words incorrectly or use the wrong word. Someone can be patient while I improve

My learning goals

I would like to be as fluent as possible in Spanish eventually, but I would at least like to practice some everyday conversational phrases before my next trip to Colombia in May.
