Mi semestre en España

SMALL TOWN SPANISH TEACHER
About this episode

This new season of fresh stories all about personal experiences. One of the best things I ever did was spend a semester of college in Spain. I lived with families and attended La Universidad de Navarra in Pamplona. I made many friends and traveled all over. I immersed myself in the language and culture. While that experience was more years ago than I care to admit, I remember it fondly. 

 

This story is told in the first person using the past tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “recuerdo” (I remember) and “fui” (I went).

 

No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way. You can find a transcript of the story and read along at https://smalltownspanishteacher.com/2023/06/28/simple-stories-in-spanish-mi-semestre-en-espana/
