A simple tale of what can happen when a teenager's three month trip to Mallorca somehow turns into eight years of nomadic wanderings throughout Spain.
When I left the UK as an eighteen year old girl for a short summer visit to Mallorca to learn some Spanish, I honestly had every intention of returning. Fifteen years, and three countries later, and I still have not quite made it home. An English Fandango focuses on the first eight years in Spain; the trials and tribulations of a girl trying to become a woman whilst learning how to become part of a foreign society. The language, the culture, the politics and the history of Spain all provide a backdrop to funny and sometimes poignant anecdotes from the atypical coming of age of a modern-day nomad.
