About Me:
Hello, my name is José and I´m 28 years old. I´m looking to meet people from all over the world to have a better perspective about it, and about life... Drop me a line and I´ll be more than happy to reply...
Requests:
My main goal is to establish contacts with native-speakers of French, Italian, Romanian, Portuguese and Catalan to do a language exchange... I would also like to establish a language exchange with those who speak the languages I mentioned well even if they're not native-speakers...I would also like to have pen-pals from all over the world because I find it very enriching to know the culture and mentality of other countries...
Language Exchange Requests:
I know how to speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Galician, Italian and French.. and at this moment I would love to correspond with Romanian speakers to keep on improving my Romanian...

Favorite Quotes:
A Persian, a Turk, an Arab, and a Greek were travelling to a distant land when they began to argue over how to spend the single coin they possessed among themselves. All craved food, but the Persian wanted to spend the coin
on angur; the Turk, on uzum; the Arab, on inab; and the Greek, on stafil. The argument became heated as each man insisted on having what he desired...
A linguist passing by overheard their quarrel and said: "Give me the coin, I undertake to satisfy the desires of all of you."
Taking the coin, the linguist went to a nearby shop and bought four small bunches of grapes. He then returned to the men and gave them each a bunch..
"That's my angur!" Cried the Persian.
"But this is what I call uzum," replied the Turk.
"You have brought me my inab," the Arab said.
"No! This in my language is stafil."
All of the sudden, the men realized that what each of them had desired was in fact the same thing, only they didn't know how to express themselves to each other.
Proverb by Jalal ad-Din Rumi, Sufi poet.
"Before one changes people, one has to understand the world the person's living in and its philosophy.."
José Eduardo Agualusa in "Creole."
