Looking for native Russian speakers

I'm Ryan, I'm seventeen, in my senior year of high school taking my first year of Russian, and I'm really enjoying the class, and doing really well. Unfortunately, I feel the class moves really slowly. I'd like to have a few Russian friends, maybe learn some slang, and some more vocabulary. It would be also nice if someone had a microphone so I could work on my spoken Russian.

And of course, I'm also willing to help native Russian speakers learning English.

If anyone's interested, email me or add me to your MSN: rsperkins@gmail.com

I also have AIM and Yahoo (though I use them less).

Ryan, you might have better luck on efl.ru (it's for Russians learning English). Go to the Penpals thread. Lots of Russians your age there.

Ah, thanks.
