Ideal language community partner

Someone who is willing to talk and listen, someone who can help me with learning his/her language, someone who has patience when I have trouble at learning their language. If he/she can, I want them to teach things about their history and culture.

My learning goals

I want to shorten my reaction time, maybe learn some words unintentionally and try to correct my minor mistakes. I'm not expecting anyone to teach me whole grammar structures but I want to correct what I already know. I want to learn naturally.
