During our Spanish Ab Initio excursion to Instituto Cervantes, we immersed ourselves in Spanish culture through various engaging activities and explored the extensive Spanish library that was there. The experience provided a wonderful opportunity to practice our language skills and deepen our understanding of the Hispanic world.<\/span><\/p>\n

We attended a Spanish Class where we completed activities based on food, recipes, and restaurants. This experience allowed us to practice our speaking and writing skills with the Spanish teachers, including re-writing a recipe of the traditional Spanish dish \u2018Gazpacho\u2019 and memory competitions.This was followed by a trip to the Gabriela Mistral Library to learn about Spanish cryptography, and have a go at creating crypto codes of our own. There, we participated in cryptography activities in Spanish to practice our understanding skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We ended the excursion with a visit to \u201cLa Hacienda\u201d, a traditional Peruvian restaurant that offered various traditional snacks such as Colombian and Peruvian empanadas.This excursion was a fantastic and unique experience that allowed us to engage with many people from various Hispanic cultures and improve our Spanish skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
