Travel Tuesday: Segovia, España

Happy Tuesday Everyone! So sorry I've been missing lately, but I started a new job as a Spa Concierge at the J.W. Marriott so I've been busy (and I've been loving it!). So for this Travel Tuesday I have a very special city that Alex and I share our love for: Segovia, Spain. He visited me twice while I was living in Spain, and we managed to make it to this city THREE different times! We were also fortunate enough to have Pedro (a family friend) as a tour guide. There's nothing better than visiting a city with a local. That being said, Alex and I ate some of the best food of our lives and drank the most delicious wine ever. Take a look for yourself!


The Aqueduct of Segovia. It's so impressive to think that these are just stones so intricately placed on top of one another. It baffles my mind as to how they even did it.


Alex and me by the Aqueduct.


Okay now for the food! Pedro brought us to a place called Jose Maria's and it is by far Alex's favorite restaurant ever. Warning, if you're a vegetarian....I would skip past the next photo.


Cochinillo! Also known as, baby pig. You might be judging me right now but it is super bueno!


Of course we had to finish the meal off with some Ponche, the traditional dessert of Segovia. 

Here are a few more photos from the city:


And my personal two favorites:




Have a great rest of your Tuesday! I leave for Washington D.C. on Friday for the Run for Hope, so wish me luck!

xoxo, K
