Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Trying to move beyond my monolingual world! Would be super grateful for anyone patient enough to put up with my intermediate Spanish/French to help me practice. Hopefully language barriers don't prevent us from having great discussions about traveling, art, music, and of course food!
