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.

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.
