I: So, Janet, tell us about your holidays.
J: OK. Well, every year I take a week's holiday in Spain I stay in a beautiful villa, I have three
meals a day, I have a lovely room, and I meet a lot of new people.
I: That sounds nice but very expensive!
J: No, it's free it costs me nothing.
I: Why's that?
J: Well, it's called Pueblo Ingls, or English village, and it's a place where Spanish people go to
practise their English. So the Spanish people are the students, and they pay, but the English speakers
pay nothing we just speak English all day with the students.
I: Really? How many people are usually there? And where are they all from?
J: There are usually about twenty English speakers from Canada, the USA, England, Australia and Ireland,
and twenty Spanish people from all over Spain.
I: Are they all in their twenties, like you?
J: Well, there are a lot of different ages, from early twenties to about sixty.
I: And what do you do on a typical day?
J: We have breakfast and then we do things together in pairs an English speaker and a Spanish speaker.
After fifty minutes, we have a ten-minute break and then we go with a different person. We do different
activities and we speak English all day. In the evening we have a big meal together. There's only one
rule. No Spanish! It's great fun I love it!
I: It sounds great. Thanks, Janet. If you want to find out more about Pueblo Ingls, there's information
