I find it is always hard to talk about yourself, so I will just briefly describe myself and hopefully I will sound interesting enough =)
I am looking for a penpal who hopefully lives in Germany. I have an interest in the German language and culture. I continue to try and improve my German every day. I feel I can read it fairly well but I still am not very good at speaking and writing it. Which is why a penpal would be perfect.
I don't mind penpals from other countries too but we really need to have a bit in common and you would need to have a good understanding of English. Otherwise we would just get too bored with each other.
Other interests of mine include music, art, literature, dancing, films, seeing live theater/plays and playing guitar
