Ideal conversation exchange partner

My perfect Tandem buddy would be someone who is patient with my million questions and who wants to learn with me! A sense of humor is preferred but not required, and I would prefer someone who is 18 years old. I don't want any more drama in my life! :)

My learning goals

I'd like to be able to converse with relative comfort, and to be able to inderstand what I am reading with accuracy as well. I'd also like to help someone else learn English!

My favorite topics

Games (video/board), books, deep philosophical topics, adrenaline sports, poetry, reading, animals, school/teaching, hands on crafts (leather working, wood working, etc), sci-si/ fantasy, technology, apps, music, instruments, horseback riding, LGBTQ issue

Speaking is the fastest way to fluency

Practice listening, improve your pronunciation, and learn to speak a foreign language with native speakers – no matter where you are.
