My language exchange partner is

Just low maintenance casual convo. I might answer you immediately or I might answer you a week late, but I’ll try! I would prefer audio snippets or voice chats ar this point but messages are OK. Please don’t ask me for whatsapp or wechat. 我没有微信!!!

My learning goals

Learn them enough to be able to hold a conversation. Preciso de aprender português para o meu trabalho. HSK4 this year for Chinese! I can help you with TOEFL/IELTS spoken tests if you help with HSK.
