Trust me when I say I understand that feeling of being alone in a city without knowing anyone. Sometimes, even when we want to practice the language, it's hard to find people to talk to. I think the best experience you could get about traveling is to discover different people, food, landscapes, architecture and culture. But sadly, sometimes the language barrier is a handicap. I've been working as a Spanish teacher for more than 5 years! And gladly, I have worked with foreign students from many different nationalities. It'll be my pleasure to help you with your improvement with the Spanish language. And if in our way of reaching your goal we can be friends... what a bless! haha.

Our team: I’m a passionate historian who was spent the last 6 years researching and visiting different archeological sites for the pure pleasure of learning more about these fascinating people.
