My learning goals

Well of course, learn a new language. I would want to possibly speak fluently in a language of my choice. Beyond that, improve my mental capacity because of learning a language. To be more specific, I want to get to know cultures from different countries.

My favorite topics

I do enjoy an environment where people could talk about music freely, without being judged. Even if it is the worst song in the world, I would gladly listen to it. No matter what language, share your music with me. I also love talking about Movies/shows.
