There are many ways to enjoy your time in Buenos Aires, meet people and practice languages! Don’t be shy, don’t hesitate anymore! Enjoy!
Here are 4 options just for you 🙂
Uniting Locals and Internationals in cities across the planet.
ML is the perfect (free) event to meet people and practice/speak languages you want to.
Get a drink and say hi! 🙂
How does it work?:
You put flags stickers from every country/region so that you can identify where people come from and the languages they speak. The subjects and the languages spoken are freely chosen.
When and where?
The event takes place three times a week in 3 different bars in the center of Buenos Aires. The event always starts from 9pm.
Tuesdays: The Temple Bar Centro (Marcelo T de Alvear 945)
Wednesdays: Soria Bar Palermo (Gorriti 5151)
Fridays: Trova Bar Palermo (Honduras 5903)
Spanglish is a language exchange that brings together English Speakers and Spanish Speakers, and just enough drinks to make it less intimidating to practice a foreign language.
