Best Spanish-speaking country to visit?

Question

I have the opportunity next year to go to a Spanish-speaking country. Which one s best to visit if I am only an intermediate Spanish speaker?

Answer 1

Well I have just returned back to my home country (Australia) from Argentina. I went there for only 3 weeks. I attended a Spanish School there for 2 weeks. I found their Spanish a little different. They speak with an Italian tang I think. But after my time there I picked up some more Spanish. After speaking to other people that have visited some Spanish speaking countries they have said that Peru is a good country to go to for learning. They speak slow and concise and clearly. I have been told the same with Colombia. If you go to Chile they are suppose to speak very very fast. Spanish from Spain is good too but you have to learn to use your tongue more with once, doce etc etc etc. Mexico have a few different words I think. All of this could be wrong but these suggestions are from other people informing me of the same question you have. I hope this helps!

Answer 2

It's not exactly a country but you could visit El Pueblo de la Reina de Los Angeles. Just think, you wouldn't have to change currencies and if you get stuck trying to say it in Spanish there is almost always someone around that knows some English!

Well, I hear Costa Rica is great... it's generally a very safe country to visit. But, if I had my choice, I would definitely visit Spain....it's so rich in history and has TAPAS! Yummy.

Answer 6

Great question, Sam.

I suggest Oaxaca, Mexico. It's safe, fun, and has the best Spanish school that I've ever seen.

PM me if you want more info on the school or the city.

Answer 7

Spain of course!! without doubting!!!!!

Answer 8

El único país que he visitado de habla español es españa. Barcelona de hecho. No puedo imaginar mejorando esta experiencia.

The only Spanish speaking country I have been in is Spain. In fact, Barcelona. I can't imagine anything better!

Answer 9

Of course, because I partly live in Costa Rica, I would say Costa Rica is a great Spanish Speaking country....

Here are a few great things about talking to Costa Rican's:

1. They are eager to help you learn (when you mess up while speaking in Spanish to someone, they kindly help you)
2. 80% Costa Rican's speak English
3. Great site seeing
