Perfect language exchange partner

Someone very keen to learn and to teach. Someone patient - I will be too. I’d love to be of similar age and to be able to talk about many things & connect deeply. Someone unafraid to say how they feel and share themselves, and to listen to me do the same.

My learning goals

I’d like to generally increase my level of a language or two to start working towards fluency. Hopefully this might help me in the coming years in which I wish to travel.
