I’m leaving Madrid this morning heading for La Alberca in the province of Salamanca. La Alberca is one of the first rural villages in Spain to be awarded National Historic Heritage. It is also the venue for the Pueblo Ingles program that I am participating in for a week. Pueblo Ingles is a an emersion program for Spaniards looking to improve their conversational English. Volunteers, such as myself, are recruited from all over world to help maintain an ‘English only’ environment.
It sounds like fun…and perhaps hard work…
I’ll let you know…

Such an interesting journey you've been on - I'm envious! Especially of the pictures you posted. Gorgeous.
I only just stumble onto your blog now so haven't read much but just saw this post. I did the same program at La Albera back in February and had a great time. All the people I met were great, especially the Sapniards. It was hard work with early mornings and long days but really rewarding over all and I loved it. I'm looking forward to hearing how it went.
Thanks Alicia
Hi Kristy, La Alberca and Pueblo Ingles was great fun. Will write about it later when more time.
Cheers, Liz
