El Corte Ingles and Taste of America are both great places to get those hard to find products you love from back home, especially the turkey.

For pumpkin pie filling, stuffing or cranberry sauce, try Taste of America, for turkey go to El Corte Ingles

If you don’t cook, try Tommy Mel’s and Peggy Sue’s diners: they are all over Madrid and feature burgers, fries, a 50’s vibe and tasty milkshakes  

1. Where to buy food?

2. Friends

One of the best parts of Thanksgiving is not actually food, but the company you keep. Surround yourself with your new favorite people and invite your international friends to try this heart-warming tradition

The true meaning of Thanksgiving is putting differences aside and finding what you have in common with the new friends you met in Spanish class from all over the globe!

3. Family

You are our family. We’re all in this adventure together, discovering new things in Madrid everyday and getting to know each other better while we grow more fluent and comfortable in Spanish. 

So to all of the AIL Madrid students, past, present, and future: you are our family! We’re so excited to have you with us here in Madrid on this special day.

4. Giving Thanks

Here at AIL, we know what we’re thankful for: our tireless and loving teachers, our ever-smiling staff, and (most of all) our variety of incredible students who bring light and joy into our lives every day of the year. 

Thank you for being part of our family and happy thanksgiving!
