Hi! I'm John. I live near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. American English is my native language. I am a curious person who loves to travel and learn about the lives of ordinary people everywhere. I shall be happy to hear your story and to help anyone who wants to improve his or her English! I am trying to learn Spanish because I don't want to be like so many native English-speaking people who can only speak English. I have studied Spanish off and on for ten years but I lose a lot of it because I'm lazy and because I live in a place where Spanish is not spoken. I find it very difficult to understand Spanish spoken by native speakers so I really need to work on that. Me va a gustar escuchar su idioma hermoso aunque no entiendo bien. ¿Como? ¿Otra vez, por favor? ¿Mande?
