i likeeeee so much yapps ദ്ദി -᷅ ·̫ -᷄ )✧︎, and i need a penpal who's on that same exact wavelength! ^D just a heads up: i’m not actually in nz. where i’m originally from is a secret until i’m comfortable enough to share ( -᷅_-᷄ )✧ purposely set the location because i'm strictly looking for pen-pals from new zealand only. if you're from elsewhere, please skip. thanks.
I live in New Zealand but enjoy travelling and love to speak to people in their native language. I speak Italian and Spanish and am learning European Portuguese for a holiday in June. This is a challenging and I need more conversation practice, although I do have one hour a week with a teacher. As my timezone is the opposite of Portugal I need a partner who can talk in the morning (my evening). I speak English clearly and can help you with your English.

初めまして、カイと申します、数年前に一年間日本に住んでいましたが, 自分の国に戻ったから日本語を話す機会が少なくなりました。個人的には多分定期的には返事できませんが、できれば早く返事するようにします!カジュアルな言語交換を探しています。会話のほうが好ましいが、ここでメッセージ交換をしてもいいです! Hi everyone, I'm Kai. I used to live in Japan a few years ago for about a year. However when I returned to my own country (NZ), my chances of speaking Japanese have decreased. Personally I might not be able to regularly reply, but I will try my hardest to reply as soon as possible. I'm looking for a casual exchange partner and prefer conversation.

( I only prefer VOICE OR VIDEO calls for learning and teaching ) also to avoid Scammers and Non Serious people. Hi my name is Jane. I’m looking to connect with people to practice some different languages. I enjoy learning new things and exchanging ideas whether it's discussing culture, travel or hobbies. If you're a native speaker or have a good grasp of languages like русский, 中文, or español, we might have a lot in common. Let's chat and learn from each other. Thank you

I am starting to learn Spanish and would love to have somebody to be able to talk to from time to time in anyway! After visitng Spain earlier this year I really enjoyed it and would love to go again. I speak native English and semi-native Japanese. I love doing any forms of art, travelling, some gaming, and any kinds of media. :)

Hi, I have not practiced speaking or writing Spanish for a very long time. He olvidado mucho. .... I can talk by Whatsapp.... Pero las horas son muy diferentes. Ahora mismo 6 pm en Nueva Zelanda es 8 am en España, el día anterior. . Por eso prefiero escribir. Espero que hay alguien que pueda hablar así o escribir... . Muchas Gracias. Saludos

I have been raised in New Zealand since the age of 5. I'm now a PhD candidate at the University of Auckland in the field of Psychology studying Alzheimer's Disease. I absolutely adore history, and my love of history led me to my fascination of the Japanese language, which I am now trying to learn. I'm happy to teach English in return. You can contact me to chat via Discord, Steam, Skype or Zoom!

Hi, my name is J, I live in New Zealand and I have graduated from Auckland University back in 2013, Triple Majoring in Language teaching and Learning, Linguistics, and English literature. I have also a postgraduate degree in Linguistics in Phonetics and syntax. I also had ESOL and Trinity qualifications from 2012~2015.
I was hoping to become a teacher when I graduated but in many circumstances, I have moved on to a different career.
Now I'm looking forward to learning Japanese and Spanish.
