Hi, I'm Dan. I'm keen to practice with native Spanish, Chinese, Indonesian and Russian speakers am happy to help you with English as a native speaker, or with French, which I can speak fluently. I've been privileged to visit countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. I've worked in government for most of my career but have had experience in non-profit and consulting work as well. Like many of you out there, my main reasons for learning languages revolve around learning about the interesting histories, cultures and stories of people from all around the world, as well as being able to experience that amazingly satisfying feeling of making people feel at home in my country by being able to speak to them in their own language. I'm also passionate about sustainability, urban planning, international relations and development and have fun by playing guitar, singing, cycling, running, hiking and cooking and trying new foods. Hope to chat to some of you soon.
