Take a Spanish Course in Argentina and Enjoy Buenos Aires, a City With European Flavor

For a lifetime experience, Buenos Aires in Argentina is the right place to visit and take a Spanish course. As the largest city in the country, I discovered in Buenos Aires the most varied culture and cosmopolitan atmosphere, definitely the best region in Argentina to take a Spanish course, with many entertainment spots and historical sights that resemble the European style.

Besides attending my Spanish course I learned to dance the amusing tango on the streets, enjoyed incredible coffee breaks in old-fashioned quarters, and football matches with locals. Mayo Avenue is one of the most important in Buenos Aires and a must for those who are taking a Spanish course in Argentina. Along Mayo Avenue you will encounter the national congress and Mayo Square with huge and lush gardens where visitors can feed pigeons and practice with locals all learnt during the Spanish course.

Neighborhoods are so different from each other! During the afternoon and after the Spanish course activities, I visited La Boca, and stroll along its narrow streets full of colorful tin houses painted by their owners and muralists. San Telmo district is completely different but as attractive as La Boca, since it counts with colonial architecture of Italian and French influence. Porteños are very friendly and make you feel at home during your stay and while you take your Spanish course.

Buenos Aires counts with an extensive transport system that makes it simple for visitors to get around. After my Spanish course I usually took the bus or the metro lines to reach restaurants and pubs. You will also find taxis and remises that aren’t that cheap but are really comfortable. For another experience, you can take the train to reach Retiro, Once, Constitucionand Federico Lacroze terminal. During my Spanish course I was taken to Uruguay in a ferry trip from Buenos Aires port to the cities of Colonia del Sacramento and Montevideo. After finishing my Spanish course I took a long distance bus and visited different provinces in Argentina. These buses are also cheap and reach every corner of the country and further.

Buenos Aires as a port city, counts with active life throughout the year. Visitors, who come to learn Spanish and undertake a Spanish course, can see fishermen doing their duty everyday, loading and unloading tones and tones of various fishes.

The port in Buenos Aires celebrates once in a year the Fisherman Day, I was lucky to take my Spanish course in Argentina during this festivity, an incredible party for those who are ready to taste the most wonderful seafood and find handicrafts produced by locals for the special occasion. During these celebrations I put into practice all I’ve learnt during my Spanish course.

The Spanish school in Buenos Aires, where I took my Spanish course, gives the perfect opportunity to learn and truly discover the Argentinean culture, especially with the wide range of extracurricular activities that are offered to the students during the Spanish course, because the best way to learn Spanish is when you practice with locals.
