“Must Have” Spanish for Travelers

Enrique Rosado
Before flying off to your favorite Spanish hotspot, why not master some key phrases? Imagine negotiating for hotels, bargaining with vendors in shops, being easily understood in restaurants and hotels, and handling unforeseen medical and travel emergencies. Practice oral and written exercises and role play. Leave with a mastery of simple sentence construction, expressions for dialoging successfully and a “cheat” sheet.
