My language exchange partner is

I'm looking to chat with warm and curious people who love to make jokes, ponder some occasional existential questions, and teach me things about their culture.

My learning goals

I really want to improve my Spanish fluency. I feel I understand a lot, but when it comes to speaking, I have to think so much before I speak. I also want to perfect some grammar issues I have, and learn lots of slang and expressions

My favorite topics

My main interests are music, movies/television, politics/current events, history, and sports. Any conversations related to those topics would be great, but I have no problem finding interest in other topics I'm not knowledgeable about as well.
