Friends call me "Gochi."​

I'm a shy guy with plenty to say; just not here or now.

Ég heiti Dan Schnettgoeck​e og ég er háskólanemi frá Bandaríkjunu​m. Ég er að læra íslensku! Ég vil pennavini frá Íslandi.  :]

First and foremost, I am looking for penpals to chat with in Icelandic (and preferably who are living in Iceland now), which I study independentl​y. I am studying some Swedish as well, but not nearly as seriously. However, I am very interested in talking to people living in Sweden as well. If needed, I would be more than happy to help with one's English. I am actually interested in Norden as a whole, so people from those areas especially, please message me!

That being said, I must say I enjoy talking with all kinds of people and would love to chat with you as long as your English is comprehensib​le. I'm a fiend for knowledge and I am a firm believer in the power of excellent conversation​. If you're at all like this — and I know plenty of you kids are — feel free to send me a message!
