Guten Abend! My name is Liam, and I'm looking for a penpal! I've been trying to learn German, and while Duolingo has been a fabulous resource, I find I do better with osmosis.
So, the long and short of it- I'm looking for a native German speaker to chat back and forth with regularly! I'll be attempting, likely horribly at first, to include as much German as possible, and I'd highly appreciate it if any messages sent my way could be put in German- With an English translation beneath, for the things I don't understand. ^.^; I know it's probably a lot of work, which I apologize for!
As to why I'm doing this, well... It started as a hobby. Then I started to realize I quite like the language.
Now, I'm realizing just how much I don't like being where I am. I want to travel- and possibly, move somewhere for good, once borders open up again. The programs needed for that can come later. For now, I'm just trying to become at least passably conversational, so I can at the very least function if I do get the chance to visit, or even stay. Please, if you're a native speaker, send me a P.M here on guild! I'd like to move to Discord if we hit it off, as I'm easier to reach there.
Looking forward to hearing from... Well, anybody! And, please, don't be offended when I initially butcher your language. I don't mean to- I'm just trying to learn.
