Nice to meet you, my name is Ryan Garrido and I am from Washington DC. I am currently living in South Korea in an effort of full immersion to learn the Korean language fully and fluently. So far I've been here a year with little effort but I've just finished my studies and it's time to dive in head first. I'm looking forward to starting this journey today on Italki, with you. I'm learning the language because I want to be able to help fellow Koreans meditate in their local tongue. I am looking to teach English to anyone around the world and also learn Korean. Maybe a language exchange will take place, if you are interested send me over a private message. I'd be happy to chat!
