Salamanca is known as one of the premiere places in Spain to go to learn Spanish. I know, you’re probably doing the same thing I did when I first heard that statement. Salamanca is the home to one of the oldest universities in the world, coupled with the 20,000 college students that inhabit the small city, your chances of speaking Spanish are far greater than that of a city like Madrid or Barcelona which are both known well for their tourism. The accent is extremely clear and easy for a novice to the language to understand.

Pasear = to stroll… very common for people in Spain to take an afternoon stroll. The same is true in France and Italy.
