However, other valuable informa- tion is also acquired such as developing a better un- derstanding of the English language and becoming ac- quainted with the customs and culture of another soci- ety. The latter is attained through engaging in holi- days such as Valentine Day and Christmas in the tradi- „ , . tional Spanish manner.
