61. Adventures in Spanish with Kelly Thornhill

Kelly Thornhill’s extraordinary travel journey began at age 17 with a one-way ticket to Rhodes, sparking a lifelong passion for exploration that eventually led her to South America.

It was in Argentina that Kelly raised her two daughters, who grew up fully immersed in the Argentine lifestyle, viewing Spanish not as an academic subject, but as the fabric of their daily lives.

The Origins of Adventures in Spanish

However, when the family relocated back to the United Kingdom in 2013, Kelly noticed her young daughters' Spanish fluency beginning to slip away almost overnight.

Refusing to let this vital piece of their identity disappear, she made the bold decision to home-educate and worldschool them for the next six years.

Driven by this profound lived experience, Kelly founded Adventures in Spanish to help other families achieve the same immersive linguistic success.

Operating initially out of a converted transit camper van to fund their nomadic lifestyle, the business has grown into a thriving educational mission offering online group classes, self-paced courses, and highly coveted Spanish Immersion Trips to Málaga.
