Intercambio

October 18, 2011

On Tuesday our group went to an ‘intercambio’ with one of the English classes at the University of Salamanca. It was a really great experience… but kind of awkward at first.  All 23 of us pretty much just walked into this class full of Spaniards and they just told us to talk to them. I ended up talking to a group of 5 Spanish students and it was really neat. Their English was really good. It was nice to actually meet people our own age who are from Spain. We exchanged numbers and hopefully will get a chance to hang out sometime. It’s a really neat experience though for both sides because they are given the opportunity to practice their English with native speakers and we are given the opportunity to practice our Spanish.  Yay for Spanish friends.
