Raisa
speaks: Portuguese (Brazilian)
learns: English, Korean

I'm not used to writing in foreign languages, but read and write in Portuguese are a big part of my life — as a hobby and sometimes work. I'm super curious about other cultures and I hope someday make the time to learn Korean, Japanese and Mandarin. I can also read and listen to content in Spanish.
