I am not looking for a tutor as I already have one, but I was wondering if there were any groups/clubs/get togethers for people wanting to get more practice learning and speaking Spanish as a second language. I assume there is a community of learners especially being surrounded by so many cities with large Spanish speaking populations.

I have heard of and seen stuff like this in other cities in the country where people will meet maybe every week or so at a bar or coffee shop and just talk and practice. And I assume something similar must exist somewhere in or nearby the city.

Any info would be much appreciated!

Estoy leyendo un libro en español y había una frase “Por extraño que parezca…” y entiendo que significa “As strange as it seems…”. Mi pregunta es ¿Se puede usar esta estructura en general: “Por <adjetivo> que <verbo 3ª persona subjuntivo>” para decir “As <adjective> as it <verb>”?

Por ejemplo, ¿podría decir los siguientes?

Por raro que suene…
Por bueno que se vea…
Por malo que sienta…

¿O solo tiene sentido en un par de casos?

¡Gracias!
