Profile
Cooking is one of my passions. I'm keen on talking about food and related subjects, I can say gastronomy in general. I love when people share about their cultural food habits and dishes. It's always a pleasure to try new recipes! I almost forgot to introduce myself. I'm a professional cook, biologist and geek! I'm pushing myself hard to take the IELTS exam and get more than 7. We can share some vocabulary, idioms and phrasal verbs and we'll both improve our knowledge.

Activities
- Hey, there! I'm not native but I study English on a daily basis. I'm also looking for someone to practice. I think if you practice you will gain some confidence in speaking.
If you want to improve your Listening, I truly recommend listening to some podcasts, such as "All Ears English" and "BBC Learning English". And also, take notes about chunks, idioms and phrasal verbs and get used to them. You can incorporate on your speaking and writing.
I still struggle with the pronunciation of some words. I usually go to forvo.com and listen to native's pronunciation then I try to speak and mimic them.0 votedMay 11, 20180 - One of the <strike>major</strike> main problems of modern Era is related to health issues due to <strike>caused by</strike> a sedentary lifestyle.
