Imagine truly feeling at home in Spanish life – not just visiting, but living it, speaking it, and connecting with it every day.

Join me for a carefully curated, immersive weekend in Barcelona, where you’ll bring your Spanish to life, explore the pulse of the city, and turn your learning into real-world connection. Every conversation, activity, and workshop is designed to skyrocket your skills, deepen your cultural understanding, and connect you with like-minded learners.

This isn’t just a trip. It’s a deep dive into Spanish language, culture, food, and everyday life – from lively cafĂ© conversations and bustling markets to hands-on experiences like our Paella & Sangria workshop, flamenco show, and shared moments with your new community.
