I joined with my 9-year-old… and it was amazing

I was the last person to join the SIP program, and before confirming, I asked if it would be possible to bring my 9-year-old son. From the beginning, SpanishLink was very clear that the program is designed for adults. But since I was the final participant to sign up, they kindly offered to ask the rest of the group if they were comfortable having a child join. Everyone said yes — and we got the green light.

I was a bit nervous at first, but I couldn’t have chosen better. Everything — absolutely everything — was adapted so my son could be part of it without changing the experience for others. Even the wine tasting was personalized for him — they organized a juice tasting, where he described flavors and sensations in Spanish! During the cooking class, he made dessert with the help of the chefs, Rafa and Fer, who were incredibly patient and kind. They were always attentive, making sure he was safe and included, but without interrupting the flow of the program.

It was truly wonderful. We didn’t just learn Spanish — we lived it. We practiced more than eight hours a day, and both of us felt comfortable and supported the entire time. From day one, you can tell you can trust this team completely.

I highly recommend it, even if you have kids. Talk to them — they’re flexible, caring, and will do everything they can to make it work.
Everything is personalized, down to an unimaginable level.

Guys, we’ll definitely see each other again!
