​A Message From Your Hosts​​

Picture
We’re so excited to welcome you to our little corner of Extremadura for this special retreat!

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to polish your Spanish conversational skills, we want you to feel at home here.

As expats ourselves, we (Paul ;-) know exactly what it’s like to feel left out of conversations, nodding along while secretly hoping no one asks you a question. We’ve been there!

That’s why we’ve created this retreat—to give you a safe, fun, and immersive space to build your confidence without any pressure.
​
The retreat will be all about practising Spanish in real-life situations, enjoying great food, and soaking in the beauty of this region. And if you’re feeling a little nervous about your level, no worries—Iva (who holds a degree in Spanish) can sit down with you for private lessons to help you find your footing.

Beyond the retreat itself, we’d love to share our favorite spots in Extremadura with you!

If you fancy exploring medieval towns, hiking through stunning nature reserves, or indulging in the local cuisine, we’ve got plenty of recommendations for before or after your stay.

We can’t wait to meet you and share this experience together!

If you have any questions or just want to say hi before you arrive, feel free to reach out.

We hope to see you soon!
“This place offers exactly what I was looking for;
a safe and quiet place to practice Spanish without the noise.
Thanks to my amazing conversation buddies,
I don't feel awkward anymore when I speak Spanish."
Dana, American expat

but having different conversation buddies each day
meant I could talk about the same topics with all of them,
and improve quickly."
