I want to learn Finnish & Norwegian and teach Spanish & Hebrew
I'm a 41 y.o. male. I’m interested on learning Norwegian (Bokmål/Nynorsk) and Finnish, and on teaching Spanish or Hebrew. I've learned some linguistics at university, and I'm still learning by myself, so I think I could be a good partner for a language exchange. I also have some books on Spanish for foreigners, and Hebrew for beginners to intermediate that could be useful as well. My mother tongue is Spanish, and I'm also fluent in Hebrew and English, and I have a good knowledge of French. I love Scandinavian languages and I've learned some basic Danish (that I’ve forgotten) some years ago, but I don't know any Finnish (I know it's an agglutinative language and that there are around 15 cases). I have plenty of spare time after work, so I'll now try with Norwegian and Finnish, this time with the hope of learning enough to be also fluent in those languages. I'm also planning to visit Scandinavia (one of my oldest dreams) in the near future, so I’d like it to be useful. I like Barroque music (Bach, Händel, Telemann, Vivaldi, Albinoni, also Grieg, Debussy, Satie and Arvo Pärt, etc.), 80's & 90's pop and some rock. Linguistics. Philosophy (Socrates, Plato, Epicurus, etc.). History. Anthropology. Geography. Arts and History of Arts. Old and classic movies (Black/White). Books, especially of art and museums. Photography, Architecture, and I’ve learned graphic design as well. I love cats (I live with 2 of them), nature, trekking through forests, mountains. Cold weather. A good conversation on a mug of coffee, and silence. Mange takk!/ Kiitos!

Hello!
Greetings oh Earthlings! ^-^
My name is Tanja. I’m 19 years old and I'm living in a litte town in Austria.
My seven main interests are photography, film, music, different languages/cultures, books, writing and creative things like painting or working with photoshop.
Why am i on this site? Well I'd like to get to know some new people, new languages and new friends.
Sometimes I’ll be in café, sitting there alone for more than 2 hours with 1 drink and do some writing or read a book.
At school I’m learning English but mostly I speak German.
I’m very interested in other languages for example Finnish, Japanese, Russian and other…
Im open minded and creative, so if you would like to know someone like that then please get to know me. I don't bite. ^-^
If not then thank you for reading this.

Hallo!! Moi!! Hola!!
Hello! My name is Elisa, I'm a 20 years old girl, I'm studying Food Engineering.I'm mexican,so my native language is Spanish (which I think I'm very good at).I'm funny, intelligent and sarcastic...I'm also patient, responsible and trustworthy. I'm interested in learning Finnish,'cause is a beautiful and harmonic language.I also want to learn German because it has a powerful sound.I've been studying these languages by myself for a few weeks,but I think it would be much more easier if someone could help me,I can teach all I know of Spanish and English.I like movies,cooking, listening to good music (rock,metal,classic...),I love reading good books and making new friends.
