Recently moved to San Luis Potos铆

Hi my name is Melina
Me and my fianc茅 moved to San Luis Potos铆 few month ago . I love the country and the city I live in. It's a very happy country .聽 The聽 only thing is that I can't find much English speaking people around and because my Spanish is not as good that I can communicate easily I feel alone . My fianc茅 is always at work and it's a bit hard to get around with my level of Spanish. Plus I want to work here but I'm on tourist visa for now I'm getting my temporary staying permit after my marriage. But I don't know if Im allowed to work with that or not :( but the important thing is I'm getting depressed without anyone who speaks my language :(

Have you thought of taking聽 Spanish language classes ? Even with little Spanish, taxis are fairly easy to deal with. Perhaps someone where your fiance works would have an idea. It is an area rich with museums, and art culture, there has to be a way for you to connect.
There are also several English speaking restaurants there.

How did you connect in the other countries you lived in ? Is English your primary language ?
Hi
I am taking Spanish classes聽 and I understand more that I can speak .I have no problem聽 With taxis and even Shoping . The problem is making friends and someone that I can talk in English聽 and maybe learn more about the culture . I know having local friends help me more to improve my Spanish but sometimes u just need someone to fully understand what you're saying without u have to try hard to explain . I even want to go to some classes that I'm interested about but all of聽 them require more Spanish skills that I have . .
And regarding to your second question
No not exactly. I was. Born in London but I was 10 when my family decided to move back to Iran . So no my mother language is Farsi.
Well, it sounds like your not so isolated after all, good for you.

Maybe you can find some of those friends who want to practice English, while helping with your Spanish. It takes a long time to become really fluent in Spanish.Even when you do , the life you know might be hard for others to understand. Someone born here who has always lived here, will have trouble with understanding the differences.聽

You actually have more languages to practice with than most. Do you have Facebook or Whatsapp where you can talk to family and friends ?

Buena suerte.
Yes聽 almost everyday I'm talking with my family anymy friends through WhatsApp and Facebook聽 . But ok they are not here聽 that actually makes me feel more alone . But yea it's about time for me To get more involved. Well yea u right there's a huge gap between my lifestyle and Mexicans lifestyle.
When you have multiple languages another language will come very fast compared to only having 1 language. We, my wife and I,聽 live in SLP also.

Other than being away from family and trying to fit in and find friends, etc., what do you think of San Luis Potosi? Have you been to other cities in Mexico that you can compare it to favorably or otherwise?
