Hi, all. I am a student in China and of course English is not my native speaking language. One of my friends recommended me this wonderful website yesterday, and I am totally a new here. I wanna join in your conversations and talk about interesting things around us, which also could help me improve my English reading and writing ability. However, as a foreigner, I may not make responses or discussion to explain my opinion exactly like you guys.I know people on mylot are very nice, but I still wonder whether you like to talk with a not-native speaker. Thank you very much!
