This is from the first email Kirsty sent me to give me an idea of the town I will be living in. I thought it was a good intro for everyone to see.
Zafra is a typical Spanish 'white' town in the South West of Spain, approx. 1 hour's drive north of Seville, and has about 18000 inhabitants. (If you look up on Wikipedia you can see a little more). It has a friendly and outgoing local community so it is very easy to meet people and get out and about, and a time here would be a great introduction to Spanish culture and social life. There is a cinema, castle, hospital, many shops and a bull ring(!). There are also academies where one to one tuition could be arranged, and there is a course run by the town hall for foreigners to get an introduction to the Spanish language and culture. |
