I do enjoy an environment where people could talk about music freely, without being judged. Even if it is the worst song in the world, I would gladly listen to it. No matter what language, share your music with me. I also love talking about Movies/shows.
Perfect language exchange partner
I think the perfect Tandem Buddy for me would be someone who has a great sense of humor. Someone who doesn’t care what others think. Someone who doesn’t get discouraged even when the task is difficult. Ultimately, they have to respect everyone’s opinion.
