My favorite topics

I enjoy talking about music, movies, technology, pop culture, current affairs literature, life✨ and any stimulating conversation in general. However I also don't mind just having small talk to build basic speaking skills either :)

My language exchange partner is

I think everyone has something to bring to the table and choosing to speak with only one type of person limits your view of the world. So I wouldn't mind someone who is opinionated but open minded, smart but chilled, fun but mature, and has a lot to say.
