We came to the Alpujarras for the usual reasons, space, peace, and to escape from
the pace and cost of living in Britain. We lived in North Wales, and Las Alpujarras are
very similar, right down to the people.
We took a six-month course in Spanish at night school but since arriving here I have
not had a single lesson in ten years due to laziness and an intense dislike of study.
Nowadays my Spanish is fluent though often inaccurate. However my Partner
Mandy is an enthusiastic student of languages and has pursued the Puentes courses
all the way to the top, and not only has she clearly enjoyed them, she now works there
as administrator! Whenever I have wanted to clarify some point in Spanish that I do not
understand I ask her and she straightens me out!
I would recommend Puentes Language School to anyone who is too lazy to study. Just
send your partner and you won’t look back!
