I wanted to take a minute to write about my experience au pairing in Spain with the help of Scotia Personnel I left for Madrid at the end of August in 2010, after having decided on Spain and au pairing after speaking with the staff at Scotia PersonnelI was really ecstatic to have found an economically savvy way to live extensively abroad The first months in Spain were incredibly rewarding and challenging at time, as is the case with anything newI took language classes, explored the city and made many friends (many au pairs, as nearly all au pairs are eager to meet up and as such, getting to know people is not a problem) In November, I decided to switch to another au pair family as I was interested in au pairing with a different age rangeI continue to stay in contact with my second familyThe mother regularly emails me photos of the girls and we exchange Christmas gifts by mail, she also offered to pay for my flight back to Spain should I ever want to au pair for the family again! Around the same time, I met [redacted] , who just so happens to be my husband as of last November! Had I not au paired in Spain, my life today would be totally different, having never met many of my very close friends, new families or husbandNor would I be able to speak the high level of Spanish I doAs a result of my time in Spain, I have also been able to expand my resume as a child care professional, tutor and ESL teacher Obviously, I recommend au pairing with Scotia Personnel to anyone who is looking to travel
