    Hi EasyExpat!

    I came to Madrid for my internship, and I am absolutely loving the city!
    In the evening, two times a week I have Spanish classes at a school called La Aventura Española (laemadrid.com), which is a fantastic school. I would definitely recommend it for everyone wanting to learn Spanish! For the rest I try to discover as many new things in Madrid as possible.

    The easiest thing to adapt to in Madrid was the different eating schedule. What I still find hard to adapt to is the non punctuality that exists here. I´ve gotten more or less used to it, but havent been able to adapt yet.

    I will be staying in Madrid for a few months more, but if I could I would absolutely stay longer!


    Madrid is a fantastic city! ¡Me encanta!

    Saludos,
