Madrid, España

By: Signe, Julia, Paige and Brett

Why Madrid you ask?

There are numerous reasons why Madrid would be the perfect choice for an educational trip for our Spanish Club. Well for starters its the Capital of Spain. Madrid is also a very historical place. We have learned quite a bit about Madrid during this class year actually. Not even mentioning that culture and social life in Madrid is absolutely amazing.. or so I’ve read. It has unique Restaurants that you will definitely want to try in your life time as well. I believe that Madrid would be a perfect city to go to and learn and take us far more beyond than only sitting in a classroom learning spanish, but to be in it in real life.
