I have spent over twenty years in this traditional town San Antonio de Areco and the surrounding the countryside. Through my experience as a teacher I noticed how students can be discouraged or motivated by different activities to learn a language. That’s why I’ve created these cultural themed tours for my students to give them the real experience. So I began by tailoring different outings around the town.

San Antonio de Areco has a lot to offer, a Historical Gaucho Museum, the lavish “estancias”, the outstanding artists in silver and leather, masters in fine crafts, loom weavers, plus its friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
Little by little I fell in love with this place and started intensive English courses for the local guides in town. After many years of historical research I became a passionate guide very alert to my clients tastes and needs.

My goal is to look after my guests and my students as if they were going out for a ride on their prams. Kind of indulgement is so advisable when we are traveling or interested in learning a new language?

So this is what we’ve been doing in Living Your Spanish for over 6 years now!
Job satisfaction is so important to us that we still want to expand our activities and come along our guests in Buenos Aires too.
As I long time resident and enthusiastic porteña I can easily identify the best spots in this beautiful city and share them with my guests.
Tango halls and art museums are the highlights of Buenos Aires, the best places for the locals, so why not inviting our new friends to the party?

I have a passion for travel and I’ve been the lucky one to find good friends in all the places where I was a tourist.
Now I want to bring this experience to you. Living Your Spanish wants to take you into a more experiential trip of getting to know the highlights of each place, the bustling city and the relaxing, yet thriving town to make it special for you!
