Perfect language exchange partner

I'm looking for someone who will always push me to learn more, and gently correct my mistakes. I'm also looking for someone with similar interests who is open to being befriended by a quirky foreigner. Everything is better with friends!

My learning goals

I want to learn enough to be able to understand and speak Japanese at a conversational level, in preparation for a summer trip to Japan (idealistic, I know).
