Someone patient and loves to teach and learn organically. Someone friendly, kind, quirky, and naturally curious about the world and life. Someone who doesn’t get bored easily and finds fun in everything. Someone open-minded and loves to laugh :)

My learning goals

For now, I want to be intermediately good in Italian (as well as Spanish and German). I studied Italian for 4 years, and I would like to retrieve that knowledge! I have family in Germany and I would like to bond with them in their native language as well.
