  3. Martin at the Santiago Bernabeu!!!!! Im so jealous!!! I visited Madrid in 2017 but didnt enjoy it because of jet lag!!! I wished I had seen more and I wish I had eaten more lol. Those churros and bocadillos looked really good!!! I wish you guys had visited Segovia. Beautiful little town!!! Great vid! "Like"

  4. Madrid is a large city but you make it look managable. You always find the best food! Looking forward to your take on Seville!

  5. So perfect that you are in my home city. Thank you for coming! Next time try La Mi Venta near the Palace area and Malacatin (true local) . Keep posting!!!

  6. Absolutely loved your video and you both are adorable together. I was in Seville for one month studying Flamenco, have been 2x to Madrid and love Spain. I will return again for two months next time!!!
