Rosetta Stone and your travels

Hola, amigos. Has anyone here used Rosetta Stone [in combination with additional studying of Spanish] and then travelled to a Spanish-speaking country? Did you think it helped during your trip to the country?

Answer 2

Rosetta stone as any language program teaches you how to speak,but does not teach you how to listen. Understanding the spoken language is its own special challenge.
