La Ruta del Español: Spanish Immersion & Volunteer Experience in León, Nicaragua

Why is La Ruta del Español incredible?
Because it’s much more than learning a language… it’s living it! 🌎✍️ This unique program combines education, social impact, and cultural exchange, giving international students and volunteers with basic Spanish the chance to improve their communication skills through volunteer activities. Participants experience cultural immersion, gain practical learning opportunities and create real connections with the people of León ❤️ ,all while making a positive social impact. 🤝

My name is Irela Aragón, traveler and passionate about photography. I am a specialist in Marketing and Cultural Management, and I am part of the Language & Culture team at Alianza Americana, the school that opens its doors to welcome international volunteers. In our project, volunteers are an essential part of the experience: they actively participate in Spanish classes and support our English classes, embracing commitment and cultural exchange through language. They also help with the maintenance and care of our Beach house , where volunteers stay, and take part in cultural and recreational activities designed for full immersion in Nicaraguan culture.
