Spanish courses in South America

Hi!

I'm considering taking a very short Spanish course really anywhere in South America for just a week. (e.g. 4 hours per day for a week). Right now, I only speak very very basic Spanish. I want something that is a bit fast paced and challenging as I tend to pick up languages very fast.

As for location, I'd prefer an area that is a bit off-the-beaten path, yet not too difficult to access, and close to more nature/outdoors scenic spots to visit after half a day of class. (I was thinking perhaps of Ecuador or Argentina).

Does anybody have any experience with any good schools or companies that do this? Appreciate any suggestions.

Cheers,

gtrekker2003

My language school experiences have been in Central America, so I can't help you from personal experience, but you could use this site as a starting point:

and ask your question on the Thorn Tree Forum:

Good luck, and keep us posted - I'm always searching for future adventures. Happy trails!
