Hello. I have been interested in traveling for a long time. I am 19 and keep changing my mind about what I want to do. I am hoping someone here can help me out. I know for sure that I want to go to a Spanish speaking country but I keep changing my mind about weather I want to go to Volunteer, study Spanish or go on some kind of adventure trip.
If anyone has had a good experience with a specific school or organization please let me know. I am hoping to be around other people my age and hopefully be able to meet locals. Thanks for any help you can give.

Learning spanish IS an adventure! Go for it, its becoming ever more important in the world. I learnt quite fast on a casual trip to Peru/Chile but my nephew (also from USA) done a course in Spain recently, best place to learn it! Ill get some info shortly...
