Mercedes Luna

Now on Amazon, "Speechless in Spain" Heralds a Braveheart Who Learned Spanish Living Abroad Alone

She thought it would be simple. Move to Spain, immerse herself in the culture, learn the language, and be back in the U.S. within months. Sounds romantic, right? But the new book by author Mercedes Luna tells another story. Newly launched on Amazon, "Speechless in Spain" shows the fortitude it takes to live abroad without the luxury of knowing a soul or the language. A two and a half year journey toward self-knowledge and acceptance, the experience stripped her of what she didn't know she had. In Spain, she opts to leave pretense and unrealistic expectations behind to tell a story of the life-changing gifts becoming fluent in Spanish wrought.
