You're making it sound wonderful. I'm ready to go...

When you say "bilingual regions" could you explain that a little more?

Two languages are spoken in some regions and both languages are official in these regions (here we say "Comunidades Autónomas", instead of "regiones"). The regions with two official languages are: Catalonia, Valencia and Baleares, where both Catalonian and Spanish are spoken; Galicia, with Galician and Spanish languages, and Euskadi or País Vasco, where euskera (Basque?) and Spanish is spoken. Sometimes you can find people who don't speak Spanish correctly or they do with great difficulty. I live in Catalonia and I see people with difficulties to speak Spanish (not very often, but in small towns is more frequent find people like that), and it could be a problem for a Spanish student.

Ask me whatever you need.

Edit: I didn't see your edition.

Your explanation was much better than what I looked up. Thanks.
That sounds a lot like some places in Canada where they speak English and French. That can make things a little difficult.
