With the new school year acting as perfect incentive to learn something new, October is a good month to get those grey cells working. How better to ward off any post-summer blues than to learn a language and dream of exotic, far-off locations…we have new weekend crash courses starting this month, and plenty of inspiration for those traveling overseas.

Latin America is enjoying being in the limelight this month. Whether it’s to learn Spanish in tropical jungle, celebrate Day of the Dead or retire to the world’s most desirable country, you’ll be spoilt for choice south of the border.

And if you’re traveling to Europe over Halloween, make sure you get into the spirit of things with our top spooky locations and essential Halloween vocabulary in French! Alternatively you may just want to relax in the beautiful Tuscan hills...

Wherever you are, Happy Halloween, Joyeux Halloween, Feliz día de los Muertos.
