LOCALS KNOW: LET’S MAKE HIERBAS! in MALLORCA

Come back every Wednesday for another funny, informative video documenting my inept food adventures. In Locals Know, I explore a new city through the tours of Urban Adventures.

Some of you know that I had an incredible journey this summer making videos and documenting tours in Europe for Urban Adventures. I went to 14 different cities and had amazing experiences in each one. And now you get to see the videos I created on the tours I took. And the best part is  when you are traveling to one of these cities, you can take the experience for yourself.

First up is a one-of-a-kind experience on the majestic island of Mallorca. This Spanish island is usually known for beaches and nightclubs. But I got a true local experience with Damiá who took us away from the tourists into the fields of the town of Esporles. There we discovered some herbs and leaves to use in making the traditional Mallorcan liqueur hierbas. And we closed the evening with some wine and sausage at his beautiful home. No question when you watch this video, yoou’ll be ready to book your trip to Mallorca.
