I would like to improve my Spanish and help others with their English. I haven't spoken German in many years, but I would like to work on that as well. I am looking for exchange partners in both languages, but I would like a teacher in Spanish to work on my grammar, especially the subjunctive. I love to travel and enjoy learning about new places and cultures. Daily life, family and national traditions interest me very much. I love learning new idiomatic expressions and slang. Having a very full schedule, I only want to connect with others who are serious about a mutual learning experience. I prefer to talk with women or men who are fun but mature. I'm busy and I want to connect with people who want to practice for real. Language partners now, hopefully friends later.

    I read other responses about the double meaning of the word "drawn" and I agree with them. I think the author is simply stating that the person was upset or stressed out and even though he had "curtains" to try cover his true feelings, those curtains were real. They were either necessary or they were so "real" but, one could still understand the mood of the person about whom he was writing even though this person was trying to hide his feelings. I have read this book and found some of its content difficult to understand even as a native speaker. Congratulations to you for reading a book with so many metaphors and colloquialisms. I don't think I would be able to do the same.

    The Twilight series and Hunger Games series are very popular. Since they are targeted to readers who are between 15-25, they might be easier and more fun to read. I loved them and I'm older than that. If you read the Hunger Games (which is awesome), beware, there are several invented words as it takes place in the future. But you could get online help with those easily.
