this is the #1 most experienced conversation when traveling... it's also the EASIEST conversation starter: - introducing yourself - saying where you're from - asking them the same! This is PERFECT practice for our Layer 1b basics, working with the top 40 words ✨ (cheat sheet below) 𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚'𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚: 1. Share a photo of your hometown/country 2. Introduce yourself AND where you're from Don't worry about perfect grammar, we're all learning together! Use these Layer 1b phrases: - "Yo soy..." (I am...) - "Yo soy de..." (I am from...) I'll go first: "¡Yo soy Valeria y soy de Puerto Rico" 🇵🇷 Poll Question: Where do you want to visit next to practice Spanish? Can't wait to see all your beautiful hometowns and travel plans! hope ya'll have an AMAZING day 💕 p.s. we got soooo many peeps visiting spain soon! Glad to see @Churnet Pieters is back and prepping for October adventure 😌 p.s.s if you want to visit Mallorca with us in May, check this out!

It's easy to learn flashcards, it's easy to write, but it's time to practice the good, juicy stuff ✨ We're going to take parts learned in 1A, 1B, and 1C, and make you speak for 15 seconds. If we consider your new friend to be the other 15 seconds, then it's officially a 30-second conversation. Instead of just memorizing stuff, go ahead and practice :) 𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚'𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚: 1. Watch Instructions 2. Record a voice memo saying your 15-second part. 3. Upload it with a gif of how you're feeling have an AMAZING day <3

ONLY if you achieve OVER 80% in Flashcard Deck 1a, tell us your score in the post comments. If you know how, take a photo or screenshot and post that too. It doesn't matter how many attempts it takes you 🙌 We want to share the victory with you! 🙌
