Hello there friends! We have a new Spanish Survival Guide today, don’t forget to check our previous one: public transport. Something that will be extremely useful when in Ecuador, Peru or Bolivia, is to know how to express yourself when going out. Whether when going out for dinner, going to the theater, to the disco or to some bar to have a drink, there are some words and phrases you’ll need to master to properly communicate.
Going out is always something exciting, even more when in a foreign country. Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru offer an extraordinary range of leisure opportunities. Since learning Spanish in an immersion course is not only about studying the language but living it, you’ll have to practice Spanish daily with locals. What could be funnier than learning Spanish while going out and enjoying your spare time?
