Notes:

Spanish is a beautiful language and often those who speak it reflect its beauty and not just in their looks! Spanish people are very hospitable people who will go out of their way to make "mi casa - su casa"! One might note that as a culture is changed and refined so is the language; ten years ago few people from Los Toros had the opportunity to attend an university, today there are a number of graduates from Los Toros working in professional careers. Some are teachers, some are lawyers and a number work in the business world. They bring to Los Toros not only economic growth but also intellectual and cultural growth. Learning Spanish enables us not just to learn a culture but also to make friends and build strong relationships. Watching these videos is a good way to start your immersion into another culture!
