Perfect language exchange partner

I don’t really have a preference as long as people reply at least once a week!

My learning goals

I’ve gone a course in Japanese ages ago so I only know a few phrases, I am familiar with the “kana’s”. I would enjoy learning more kanji and phrases. As for German, the grammar is my most difficult area. I have barely looked into the other languages.
