Can You Survive 24 Hours in CANADA Speaking ONLY SPANISH? - Intermediate Spanish

[@DreamingSpanish]

Want to see more videos of Andrea la Mexicana? Head to drming.es/andrea for more, or to drming.es/teachers to meet all our teachers!

For anyone wondering at 9:28 the women talk to each other in German, the one speaking asks her friends if they have seen a "cafeteria" or "café" down the street at the right-hand side. Apparently its less of a problem that they don't understand español and more that they don't know if anywhere is a good cafetería and even less if it's a good one.

Woowww gracias!!!!

Estoy de acuerdo

[@Cathitalized]

It's really sweet how people work to understand and help, even when they don't speak Spanish!

[@AWholeLottaLola]

_I'm so happy! I understood 80% of what she said 🥰🥰 when I started learning Spanish almost 2 years ago, I knew practically nothing. I haven't always been consistent but I'm proud of my progress so far. Can't wait to become fluent!_

Add french, russian, arabic And you can communicate everywhere in the world All countries in the world either know english french spanish russian or arabic

[@GeographyGeek]

Loved this video. Keep making “I show you around” longer videos!

[@ericcsuf]

Fun idea for a video. As you said, it works in a multicultural city like Vancouver, but would be much more difficult in any of the surrounding towns. One of the most striking things about the video to me is that nobody reacts at all to a woman walking around apparently talking to herself. Not TOO many years ago, only crazy people did that. But that was before cellphones and youtube. Love your videos, Andrea. You are one of only a couple of your colleagues that I can understand almost at 100% at the Intermediate level.

[@canchero724]

There's a cameraman/woman clearly filming her, so it's less weird than you think, they're all probably thinking she's an influencer or something 😂

[@ca21st]

Andrea es la mejor. Que buena idea! Español es útil en lugares inesperados! gracias a ti Andrea

[@EnglishwithJoe]

Thank you for your braveness in making this video

[@VincensOK]

Soy español y debo felicitarte como cuidas nuestro idioma con una pronunciación perfecta. También te felicito por tu canal.

Muchas gracias!!! 🫂

[@stevechamberlin4546]

I loved that even when people didn't speak Spanish, they were still almost always genuinely helpful.

Wow, creo que puedo entender todo en este video en el cual Andrea habla. Estoy muy orgulloso de mí mismo. Gracias a nuestra bella Andrea.

[@TitusB-j5q]

I loved this video and would watch a million of these in different cities.

[@micdesch]

Hola Andrea, me alegra que hayas disfrutado tu día en Vancouver porque soy de Canadá. Veo tus videos para aprender español. Muchas gracias, fue muy interesante. 🤩

[@Mara-o1v]

9:26 as a German I was very confused and it took me a few seconds to realize that the girl spoke German 😂😂

[@blackhawk1111]

Your presentation style was very engaging, thank you for making this video. 😊

[@TheOneChannelToRuleThemAll]

Loved this video, super fun concept. I would love to see other professors try this in other (non Spanish speaking) countries!

[@andrealamexicana]

That would be awesome!

[@SpanishLearning-fb5su]

Que chèvere video. Me gusta el concepto! Gracias Andrea!

[@angelparedes1088]

Great Video! I love Andrea and is awesome to see that there are many people in Canada who can speak spanish. I understood a lot of things said in this video, I’m happy to see myself progressing more😊

[@aruda10]

What a fun video and a fantastic idea!! But omg, the second-hand social anxiety I got by watching this LOL. You’re so brave. The best chai ever is Big Train Vanilla Chai Tea Latte. Seriously, it’s out of this world. I do believe it has powdered milk in it though.

[@JenniferSpanish]

I'm getting 2nd hand anxiety and I haven't even watched the video yet!

[@andrealamexicana]

Wow, I will have to try that one! ☕️

Soy de Vancouver y me encanta este video y estoy orgulloso por mi cuidad. Inglés ne es mi primera lengua pero siempre me siente aceptado aquí . Espero que su viaje era muy agradable!

[@Gdarf7uncle]

Anyone else jamming out to the background music during the DS pitch at the end of the video? 😅 Another A+ video from the DS team! 💗

[@SeanLazer]

I'd be so psyched if I was walking down the street in my Canadian city and someone needed some help en español!

[@picanchilada]

The thing about Spanish is that even though there might not be a specific "Spanish-speaking neighborhood" ( Similar to Chinatown, Korea town or Greek town .. etc ) It's very common to hear Spanish on the street of Toronto, sprinkling across the city - It's one of the most spoken language in the world after all

[@pureone8350]

When I visited Toronto I heard Spanish here and there but other languages seemed much more commonly in use when i heard foreign languages

[@TheJoeFanClubTM]

I love how professional the videos have become! This is so cinematic and well done!

[@СтивС-к8ф]

Great video. I am from the USA, currently in Croatia. Travelers all use English. Next most common is German and then Russian. I heard Spanish a few times but it isn't common. In any sort of tourist situation people know some English.

[@Ultimum]

Andrea, tu video estaba educativo. No es facil hablar tu idioma en un pais extranjero.

[@soafone]

Hola Andrea, I invite you to Ottawa to hang out with at our spanish/english language exchange meetup on Sundays called Hablemos! Bring your camera :)

[@JimLearningEspañol-h9q]

The many cognates between English and Spanish really helps for basic interactions, like you see here - cafeteria, hotel, etc. If a Spanish speaker didn't speak English but was about to travel to English speaking areas, I'd tell them to try to learn some of those basic cognate patterns (like -mente words) learn a handful of basic (where, want, go, how, is, etc) words, you can do a lot with just a few hours knowing that for tourist type stuff if you speak carefully and a little slow.

[@TheMiliPro]

Yes I thought that, technically breaking the rules a little. If it were a someone who only speaks Spanish they’d have a bit more of a challenge though tbh there were alot of Spanish speakers which is unsurprising given she’s in North America

[@davidhiestand1608]

This is a cool video, but I think it would be a bigger challenge. If you sent somebody to Vancouver Canada, who not only was allowed to speak only Spanish, but also only understood Spanish.

[@kamilsvideo]

Nie oglądałem jeszcze, ale świetny pomysł!

[@rioka-en-espanol-on3qw]

I don't know about in Canada, but in the UK a "cafeteria" would usually refer to something totally different to a cafe or coffee shop - more like a cheap and cheerful food court. Wonder if that caused some extra confusion 😆

[@martincrabtree]

You should try this same challenge in Mongolia

[@gadgetpuzzle]

Andrea, eso es muy bueno, pero no necesito comer no solo gluten, pero también y primeramente azúcar y lecho de vacas. Debes visitar Rusia - te da los 99.9% que ningún en la calle o en supermercados puedes hablar español contigo 😂 pero... una mi amiga tienes su padre que hace muchos años removió vivir en México y ella habla español

[@HowToExcelBlog]

You could definitely do it in Montreal. Also, probably not the best idea to film in a gym changeroom.

[@heyou9023]

The GOAT

[@nite_owl_Natty]

I lived in Van for 7 yrs. I have never seen a person just walking into a hotel without any reservation. Idk aboug Mexico but in Canada hotels are usually booked online ahead of time. And walking down the street asking people "where is the hotel " would just raise a question: what hotel are you looking for? There are tons of hotels DT Vancouver , if you are a visitor, you'd for sure book one prior to coming to Van.

[@BooklessPete]

Video divertido. Me gusta el concepto.

[@anis.anis.a]

Great video 😍🌹

[@wastingtimeop]

I really like this style video. Question: is this really intermediate? I consider myself intermediate, yet I can understand 100% of this with ease. I find some of the levels mislabeled in Dreaming Spanish. This to me is advanced beginner. I think what would make this intermediate would be when talking to the camera, Andrea would talk more like she is talking to another Spanish speaker and not students. Thoughts?
