When you want to master a foreign language, it is very important to listen as much as possible to different accents and ways of speaking in order to improve your listening skills. As you will have noticed by now, Spanish is a very rich and complex language. The scale of the countries it’s spoken in can be both exhilarating and daunting at once.
