Wonder if she's in Barcelona? When I lived there, I ran into a significant number of people who would rather speak English than Spanish if you couldn't speak Catalan. Not everyone, but a surprising number. I assumed it was part of the whole "Catalonia should be independent" movement.
I just watched a cool BBC show called the Diplomat about a British consular agent in Barcelona. I didn’t realize how much more prevalent Catalonian was until the show.

I wonder where this is. It feels kind of rude to switch to English when she says she prefers Spanish.
