Ideal conversation exchange partner
I’d like to meet someone friendly and easygoing who’d be willing to chat with me to maintain my French and possibly develop my skills in other languages (i.e. Spanish and Mandarin). I’m an upbeat and outgoing person and I’d love to meet you!
My learning goals
I’m hoping to maintain my French - I’m already a fluent speaker but because I’m always in English-speaking environments, I find myself forgetting some things. I’d also like to practice my Spanish before I go to Peru and Bolivia in February.
