A couple of
months ago I took the decision to go a Vaughan Town (VT). VT is a full
immersion English course where you can be in touch with Anglo people from all
over the world for 6 days in our country, in this case in Paular Monastery of
Rasacafria.
I am going
to begin from the end. Was worth it? Yes, it was. I am 45 and I had
never lived an experience like this, in which, you are with unknown people
speaking, thinking and understanding all the time in English. The situation the
first couple of days was really hard for all of us, 14 Spaniards and 16 Anglos, but it was worse for us than for the Anglos. I remember especially
the first evening, I had a terrible headache and I couldn’t almost speak.
About the
Anglos I have to say that most of them were really interesting. There were
people from The States, England, Scotland and Australia. Some of them were
working and their range of age was between 22 and 50, and others were retired
and they were upper 65 until 79!!! All of them were volunteers and they were
here in Spain for holidays…. Incredible!!!, isn´t it???
The time
table of a working day was always the same more or less:
At 9:00 we had breakfast all together in tables of
four people, two Anglos and two
Spaniards, and we had to sit across each other. It was the same
routine for lunch and dinner.
We
developed a lot of activities, some of them were individual and others were
group activities. The most frequent were:
•One to one. I had a meeting with all the
Anglos and we had to work in some expressions and phrasal verbs and speaking
about what we preferred.
•Conference call. A topic was given and in a group of 4 people we
worked on it.
•Telephone session. It was more or less as the one to one, but by phone.
•Others activities: oral presentation, skits,
etc…..
We only had
free time from 15:00 to 17:00, but the rest of the time we were really busy.
The
times went by and with the
passing of the days the atmosphere
between all of us was improving and at the end we were like a large family and
we had a very good time.
So,
finally, I have to recognize that my English is much better than before and I
have met a very interesting people.
What else?

Titus has finally published a post fuck up!
But I have some questions:
- There were females in the group?
- Have you touched hair?
- Could you practice expressions like "I want to eat your pussy?" or "Put my cock into your mouth?"
Por cierto, escribes mejor en inglés que en español, hay que joderse :o)

Awesome!
Fucking great post. Good use of English and just a couple of minor mistakes.
Mike, I must say that your comment is beyond good manners and we are not used to this sort of expressions. Please refrain.
And in the end... Were there chiks around?
