[What Sandra said ^^, plus:]

The begining beginning

I have found italki by chance when I was doing some researches on internet. It seems a good place to make friends, share experiences, improve my English and, who knows, learn others languages like Italian, for example. Beside become fluent in a foreign language and make friends along the way, I can help some of these new friends interested in learn Portuguese.

I like to travel so much. It is funny (funny = que se hace reír) and, in my opinion, it´s the most interesting way of knowing a little bit about new cultures.

"Knowing" doesn't quite sound like the right word choice for what you're trying to say. I think you're going for "finding out/learning" about new cultures.

In English, "to know" isn't used as an action verb:

  -Yesterday I *knew how to swim. (Better: Yesterday I learned how to swim.)

In the context of acquiring information, "to know" is better used to express a continuing state of being, in this case, that you've known something for a while:

  -I know a lot of Spanish because I learned it in school.

  -I know about other cultures because I found out a lot about them when I was traveling.

I am so glad for joining the italki community.

Another construction that doesn't sound quite right. It would go better as "I'm so glad I joined..." ("I'm so glad that I joined" but the "that" linking the two clauses can be omitted in English).

Good luck with your English! :-)

The begining

I have found italki by chance when I was doing some research/searches on the internet. It seems like a good place to make friends, share experiences, improve my English and, who knows, learn other languages like Italian, for example. Besides becoming fluent in a foreign language and making friends along the way, I can help some of these new friends that are/if they are interested in learning Portuguese.

I like travel so much. It is funny fun and, in my opinion, it´s the most interesting way of knowing a little bit about new cultures.

Funny = engraçado. Fun= divertido.

I am so glad for joining the italki community.
