Hi Naomi! I am a native English speaker (Born/raised in America. Also fluent in conversational Mandarin), and I love learning new things like you! I saw on your profile that you're a school librarian and think that's awesome. I loved school and still love reading :) I'm a beginner with Japanese, but can read a little better (because of the Chinese-kanji connection). What are you looking for in an ideal language partner? If you'd like to chat, feel free to message me!
