I’m planning on going to Peru next summer and it would definitely be useful…so Olah! Let’s do this thing!
How to learn some Spanish
It made me
Very Happy!!! 
"It was so interesting because you can communicate with Spanish people and they can understand you and you can understand them it's really amazing."
How I did it: How I did it was to study the language in a dictionary/phrasebook and maybe write down useful things off Google Translate and learn them before going to Spain.
Resources: My dictionary, my phrasebook and my Spanish friends.
People doing this are also doing these things:

While painting, I overruled bf in choice of iPod material being played and we have gone over lessons 6 and 8, 9, 10 and 11. We learned how to introduce our family, count to 10 and say if we like our jobs, our hobbies and so on. Although bf isn’t half as enthusiastic as I am, he joins in after some pushing from my side. I’ll make him a speaker of Spanish, too!

I have progressed to lesson 11.

As sad it is, I’ve given up on bf and me doing this together, as he shows no interest whenever I bring it up, even though he’s been commented positively on his pronounciation by Spnaish native speakers.
So I ventured on without him.
Unfortunately, I do not have the written material, so I can’t spell what I can say (feel free to correct my spelling!).
By now, I can say stuff like this:
Me llamo redbandita. Soy de Alemania, pero ahora vivo en Amsterdam en Holanda. Tengo una hermana, se llama Vanessa. Vanessa tiena un hijo, se llama Elias. Su marido se llama Nicolai.
Me gusto la musica, cantar, la literatura y aprender los idiomas.
Estoy aprendiendo español, hablo un poco de español.
Lo siento, no entiendo. Puedes repetir?

It seems to be a good moment to do this while cooking our dinner together. Good fun, and it really sinks in.
We also started on lesson 2, Buenos dias &tardes & noches, hasta luego & manhana (no spelling available, I know it’s wrong…)

We did lesson one over.

Bf and I were listening to the first episode of CBS together.
That was fun! I hope we can repeat it sometime this week and then move on to lesson two. I’d like him to catch up with me, as I am already on lesson 5.

The Coffeebreak Spanish podcasts simply ROCK!
The lessons are short and easy. I listen to them while cycling home and can say that I have learned the vocabulary with ease and confidence. Mark, the teacher and Cara, the student in the podcasts are so positive one cannot help but just join in and the revision chapter came just when I thought “I wish they’d do a revicion PC”.
So woohoo and to anybody else out there trying to start with Spanish: Download it for free on itunes and get started!

The spelling is not clear as I don’t have any reading material. But this is only the beginning…
