John has just come back from 7 days in Spain šŖšø and he had an amazing time!
John has been learning Spanish for a few years and loved being able to use his Spanish whilst he was away.
John flew to Malaga with easyJet āļø and caught the train š to CĆ³rdoba, then onto Granada then a bus back to Malaga āļø.
John booked all his train tickets on the day in Spanish, and also had to communicate š£ with Spanish train conductors to find out what platform heād be leaving from. A lot of the people he came into contact with didnāt speak any English.
He enjoyed going to the Mesquita in CĆ³rdoba, the Alhambra in Granada and experiencing life in Spain. He spoke to waiters, hotel staff and transport workers all in Spanish. He even helped a Spanish lady out in Liverpool airport who didnāt understand she needed her boarding pass to buy goods in duty free.
John recommends travelling round Andalusia and catching the AVE (Spanish high speed train). He says he wouldnāt do anything differently and loved his holiday.
His highlight was the Alhambra and recommends buying the general ticket š«
He found the accent in Malaga the hardest as they speak to fast and often miss out the beginning and end of the words.
Well done John, amazing to hear about your holiday and how you put your Spanish into action.
