Ideal language community partner

I would love to have someone to teach me their language, and I can teach mine in exchange! I'd like someone I can consider a close friend and offer support for each other. Some long-term friends would be great! I love sharing culture and chatting often!

My learning goals

I would like to become fluent in Tagalog, so I can communicate comfortably with my friends and family. I'm also planning to travel (and maybe live ) to the Philippines, so having some friends to meet over there would be great!
