Salamanca--My Spanish Home

by pabertra - last update: Nov 13, 2004

My Experience in Salamanca

The University of Salamanca
Salamanca is not just any Spanish city to me, it has been my temporary home for 6 months, while I've studied and traveled around Spain. I know the town more intimately than any other place in the country and it is very much like my home outside of America. You can expect detailed tips and insights as I continue to develop this page throughout my last 2 months here. It is a FANTASTIC town and if you will be passing through soon let me know and I would be glad to show you around.

Studying in Salamanca

Studying in Salamanca is an excellent opportunity and experience to learn both the language and the culture firsthand. I studied in two seperate programs at the University of Salamanca, but there are many language schools here to suit many different individual's needs. For those interested in study at the University of Salamanca see my travelogue on it for a detailed description of what to expect.

 I enjoyed my short visit to Salamanca, but didn't have the chance to go to any night spots.

 Funny, I only knew Salamanca from the university and other historical buildings :) but i see they have some other places of interest too :))

 Saint John of Sahagún was indeed born there, in the XV century, but it is in Salamanca where he worked most of his life and where he made most of his miracles.
