RETURNED FROM SPAIN
Meredith and I were parts of two different groups from 25 countries recently invited to Spain as the guest of the government tourism department. The purpose was to have us learn more of Spain, Meredith in Andalucia and me in Madrid and Salamanca, and to be further introduced to Spain's wine and food. It gave us the opportunity to meet with all our schools there and better prepare for your trips. The dollar has strengthened against the euro recently, and Spain is a very exciting place to study.
NEW PROGRAM
S
We are quite slow to add new schools, as we like to remain very personalized and completely knowledgeable with our service. Due to many requests, however, we now are representing an outstanding program in Guadalajara, IMAC. All details are now on the website under Mexico.
Soon we'll be adding Valencia, Spain, and a new program in Buenos Aires.

It's brief information about the Spanish language and culture and includes an informative Spanish lesson. We receive many comments about how much people like to receive it...good stuff!
GROUPS heading out are more numerous than ever! 2009 has included many college students and high school groups to our programs in Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Spain, Peru and Chile. These include the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay and Madison, Lindenwood University, Martin Luther College, Notre Dame HS in Tennessee, ACIS, Austin College, ...just to name a few. We have had bilingual education majors visiting schools in Mexico, and several corporate groups. We have upcoming groups seeing the vineyards of Chile and playing on the beaches of Costa Rica...all these adventures enjoyed while they're learning Spanish. What exciting opportunities for all!
ACADEMIC CREDIT
We are offering undergraduate credit in almost all our schools now through Brookhaven College of Texas.
We're visiting schools!
Meredith visited Mexico in April to check in with our new office there. In late April at a meeting in Vancouver, Meredith met with almost all our schools in Spain, as well as Playa del Carmen. She traveled to Spain in June.
Kay is greatly enjoying the opportunity of living in Mexico and personally meeting almost all the Cuernavaca students, since she is now directing our Mexico office. Kay visited Guadalajara last September and Spain last October to meet with all of our Spanish partner schools there.
