Most of our Spanish students come from the city where we live, Bilbao, in the north of Spain. Bilbao is a coastal city with a population of about half a million. It is the capital of Vizcaya, a province of the Basque Country, which in addition to Spanish, has its own local language and culture. Bilbao has recently transformed itself from an industrial port city to an attractive tourist destination due to the construction of the modern Guggenheim Museum in 1997.

However, our students also come from other important cities in Spain, such as Madrid, Pamplona, Burgos, Malaga and Vitoria.
