I am looking to practice my Spanish and will be going for lessons in Alicante before making my way to Madrid. I am a beginner but eager to learn. Would really like to be able to hold a decent conversation in Spanish so I thought what better way than to practice in Spain...

Like indie, old school, some pop, a bit of a reggae... the list goes on. One of my favourite bands is the xx. Loved memoirs of a geisha and trying to get back into reading on more of a regular basis. Aside from that also Animal Farm, Rebecca and The Beach. Fave movies include Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Blue Valentine, Spirited Away, La Haine and The Beach.
