I want to learn Finnish & Norwegian and teach Spanish & Hebrew
I'm a 41 y.o. male. I’m interested on learning Norwegian (Bokmål/Nynorsk) and Finnish, and on teaching Spanish or Hebrew. I've learned some linguistics at university, and I'm still learning by myself, so I think I could be a good partner for a language exchange. I also have some books on Spanish for foreigners, and Hebrew for beginners to intermediate that could be useful as well. My mother tongue is Spanish, and I'm also fluent in Hebrew and English, and I have a good knowledge of French. I love Scandinavian languages and I've learned some basic Danish (that I’ve forgotten) some years ago, but I don't know any Finnish (I know it's an agglutinative language and that there are around 15 cases). I have plenty of spare time after work, so I'll now try with Norwegian and Finnish, this time with the hope of learning enough to be also fluent in those languages. I'm also planning to visit Scandinavia (one of my oldest dreams) in the near future, so I’d like it to be useful. I like Barroque music (Bach, Händel, Telemann, Vivaldi, Albinoni, also Grieg, Debussy, Satie and Arvo Pärt, etc.), 80's & 90's pop and some rock. Linguistics. Philosophy (Socrates, Plato, Epicurus, etc.). History. Anthropology. Geography. Arts and History of Arts. Old and classic movies (Black/White). Books, especially of art and museums. Photography, Architecture, and I’ve learned graphic design as well. I love cats (I live with 2 of them), nature, trekking through forests, mountains. Cold weather. A good conversation on a mug of coffee, and silence. Mange takk!/ Kiitos!

Language pair: Finnish; Spanish
