My First Spanish Immersion in Spain
March 15, 2026by: Mary Pompidou - FranceProgram: Study Spanish in Bilbao, Spain
Studying Spanish in Bilbao with Instituto Hemingway was an unforgettable first immersion experience abroad. The classes were dynamic, friendly, and focused on speaking, which helped me gain confidence quickly. Living in such a vibrant city and joining cultural activities made learning feel natural and exciting. The welcoming atmosphere felt like a small family. It was a unique experience that helped me improve my Spanish while discovering a beautiful culture.

Learn Spanish, Clean the Ocean, Feel at Home
March 15, 2026by: Lucy Kandisky - GermanyProgram: Volunteer Programs in Spain
This experience was truly unforgettable. The beach clean-up volunteering had a real environmental impact and an amazing vibe—sometimes we were even singing while collecting trash and protecting nature. Activities like these help communities care for the environment and work together for a cleaner coastline. The accommodation in the city center was fantastic, comfortable and fully equipped. Spanish classes nearby were fun, relaxed and focused on speaking. With cultural activities and a young, inclusive atmosphere, it felt like a small family—an immersive and unique way to practice Spanish every day.
