Job: Director

Languages: Spanish, English, a little French + German

Note from Amanda:
I first came to Salamanca in 1990 to study history with an Erasmus grant from Edinburgh University and, like nearly everyone, fell in love with the place. After graduating, I came back to Salamanca to help Dieter with ISLA. ISLA for me is defined by the people that study here and its team who bring so much care and enthusiasm to the job.
