I am just beginning to learn Spanish and am keen to practise my speaking. I'm hoping to be able to speak comfortably during casual conversation within a year. I enjoy the fresh perspective that speaking with individuals from different cultures brings. As for me, I love literature, the more original and creative the writing style the more I enjoy the book. I have a passion for learning new things and as a scientist I really enjoy problem solving. I also like to travel and try new experiences.
