the second person was not speaking Spanish, it was Gallego, but it's mutual intelligible with Spanish about 65 % , and even more if you speak Portuguese

Spain is top notch place to learn Spanish because all varieties of Spanish come from Spanish spoken in Spain. You can learn the Voseo, Vosotros, Ustedes, for example and drop this forms as suited when you are in Latam for example. Or switch the tu for the vos etc... But if you learn in Latam you wont be learning how to use the Vosotros or the Vos that well and you will be loosing verbal forms. Considering that a third of most Spanish content out there (since Spain is the most devellopped and rich spanish speaking country) is made in Spain I advice on learning this variety. Also pronunciation in Spain is the the best one because you will be able to differenciate when a written word has a C, Z or S, but if you learn in Latam, for many varieties you wont be able to differentiate this three sounds and thus the orthographic spelling of words with this sounds would lead to confusion and mistakes. PD: Also I dont recomend some countries, such as Chile (love to them but we all joke they have uncomprenhensible speech xD) because of their pronunciation and most of spain is fine but do not go to Andalucia or Galicia which have VERY PECULIAR spanish, go to more mainstream places (Valencia, Madrid, Barcelona, Salamanca, Bilbao, Santader, Burgos, Toledo etc etc). In Latam I think the best Spanish would be Colombian since it has more in common with most Spanish varieties.

0:30 that's not Spanish, it is gallego language.

Yeah I agree on the Colombia recommendation. Plus so many other benefits to learning in Medellin! Great food, amazing coffee and perfect weather all year round!

Some parts of Colombia and Mexico can be dangerous. In Mexico, accents can vary greatly; some are easy to understand while others can be quite complicated. It really depends on who you talk to, and there’s a lot of slang as well. My recommendation is to start by going to Guatemala until you reach an intermediate level of Spanish. There, you can take five hours of private lessons a day and stay with a host family for a very reasonable price. They'll immerse you in the language, making it easier to learn even if you don't realize it's happening! After Guatemala, you can choose to go to Peru or Colombia, depending on your mood. The accents in these countries are generally medium to easy to understand, and you can enjoy both travel and school while you’re there. Finally, consider going to Mexico. This country produces a lot of TV series and movies and is the most populated Spanish-speaking country. Since you will have developed a strong foundation in Spanish, learning the slang will be much easier. Congratulations! You will have learned Spanish quickly and easily. The last step will be to focus on Spain accent!

Yeah it is tough to listen to / understand some Spaniards if your ear isn't trained. Great video!

I am a native Spanish speaker myself and cannot understand gallego accents for the life of me!
