| LA MURALLA: This massive wall defended the city from the invading hordes for over 15 centuries until its intimidating defenses finally succumbed to the overwhelming waves of tourists. Here we sit victorious. |
I had a midterm in International Finance on Friday that tested
the picky mathematics of currency trading, so it was a relief to spend Saturday
touring the city of Segovia, which dates back two millennia. The trip was
organized by the residence hall association, which is one of the benefits of
living in the dorms, so the one-hour bus ride cost just three euros round-trip.
The weather was perfect and I made some cool friends in the afternoon. Madrid’s
central location makes travelling effortless and going on daytrips to the
surrounding historic cities has been one of the best parts of living here.

| COCHINILLO: Segovia is famous for its piglet roasted whole and chopped into four massive hunks. It was unquestionably the best pork I've ever eaten in my life. |
