Switch it up with some International TV shows

Dabbling in a new language? Want to experience another culture? Just looking to read subtitles for fun? Whatever it is, here are my favorite Netflix series that take me across the globe from the comfort of my own bedroom.

Elite

Location: Madrid, Spain

Language: Spanish

Elite is a TV show about private school students who are all being questioned about a murder of one of their classmates. The show is mysterious and thrilling as tension is very high. The social class differences between characters also adds another dimension to the show that is quite intriguing and telling about society.

Baby

Location: Rome, Italy

Language: Italian

Baby tells the story of a high school student in Italy who ends up being drawn into a prostitution circle. This show is actually based on a true story that involved young girls becoming prostitutes for quick money. It is a very interesting watch and will get you hooked from the first episode.

La Reina del Flow

Location: Medellin, Colombia

Language: Spanish

This one is my personal favorite as my cousin actually plays a role in the show. La Reina del Flow follows a girl who has her songbook stolen by one of her "closest" friends, and he rides to fame with it without giving her any credit at all. Things get crazy once she ends up jail and comes out with a new identity with a goal to get revenge. This show has some wild moments along with a great soundtrack, which makes it a must watch.
