My understanding of the Spanish language excelled almost immediately after my arrival in Spain. I believe that studying a language by being immersed in the culture and language is the very best way.

Irish Rover, La Chupeteria, Biblioteca, Garamond, Cum Laude. Salamanca offers lots of places to go out for students. You can go out everynight and it's not so expensive. It's a students paradise!
