Ideal conversation exchange partner

I think my perfect tandem partner would be someone who is flexible but still can talk fairly regularly. My ideal partner would also give involved responses to open-ended questions.

My learning goals

I would like to become as close to fluent as possible. In terms of motivation, I love to travel and most of the places that I want to travel to speak French or Spanish. Therefore, I want to learn those languages well so I can communicate while I travel.

My perfect tandem partner would be someone who enjoys music, maybe is a musician or artist themself. They would enjoy talking about their goals and ambitions and opinions on life and world as a whole. They would be kind and open and inquisitive.

My learning goals

I would love to be able to carry on a conversation in a different language and develop good comprehension of the language. (Instagram: @macyruggiero )

I want a conversation partner who is

I would appreciate it if they are somewhat close to my age (20-30 years old). More specifically, I just want a partner who can help me get a better grasp on the language without judging my accent and mispronunciation too harshly.

My learning goals

I would love to one day be fluent, but right now I’ll settle for being able to hold a simple conversation and navigate the country on my own.
