(1) Hi! I’m looking to learn a few languages, focusing on Japanese and Italian just now! Still very much a beginner in Japanese and maybe upper beginner (if that’s a thing) in Italian. Regardless, I’d be happy to help with English in exchange for learning a little bit about wherever you’re from! I’m 17 from the uk, and my main interest are languages, art, music, horror movies, and reading.

(2) I’ve tried language exchanges in the past, but they always seem to trail off -though maybe it’s just me being awkward. Does anyone have any tips or advice on how to structure a language exchange? Again, could just be me being bad at conversations, but unless someone has a particular question, it can be difficult to know what to say to start it off. Of course, meeting in person is more difficult, and I personally prefer text rather than calls, so specifically advice with that in mind would be great -though any would still be appreciated!

Thanks so much for reading! If you want to chat, comment or pm me!
