제 소개: 미국 캘리포니아주 샌디에고에 살아요. 우리 부모님은 필리핀 사람이고 저는 미국에서 태어났습니다. 한국말 공부를 관심 어떻게 시작했어요? 솔직히 특별한 이유 없어요 ㅎㅎㅎ 그냥 한국 문화에 관심이 많아서 독학으로 한국어를 열심히 공부하고 있습니다. 한국말을 한 10년동안 배웠는데 아직 잘 못해요. 원어민이랑 문법 더 배우고 싶어요. 영어를 많이 가르쳐줄 수 있습니다. 한국 하고 미국 시차 커서 일주일 안에 30분 동안 통화할까요?

My favorite topics

한국 드라마와 케이팝 아이돌 관심 없어서 대화안해요. 대신 인생 일상 주제 대화할래요
