Perfect language exchange partner

We don’t necessarily have to share the same interests. I’m always interested in learning new things - I have an open mind and am curious and that’s all I’m looking for in a tandem partner.

My learning goals

I love Spanish - listening to it & how it feels when I speak. I’ve had a long standing interest in South America & have visited twice, learning in Argentina before taking more courses in Spain. Now I want to try to relearn as I have forgotten so much!
