Anyone interested in long-term conversations (especially if you like music, are pretty left-wing and want to learn about the British love of sarcasm)- I'd like friends all over the globe!

My learning goals

To learn useful everyday phrases in French and Japanese- basically enough to get by and live in that country as a basis to improve upon; I want to leave the UK as soon as I finish my degree so I'm trying to get a headstart on learning :)
