Work in progress…

I am still training my Valkyrie moves, and I thought I’d give sword fighting a try! But I don’t have a sword yet, and no opponent either. So I attacked my coat hanger fiercely with an empty paper towel carton tube in my hand, tripped on my selfmade white gown, fell to the ground and…… Continue reading Work in progress…

Demandes-le moi à nouveau…

J’ai préparé de la soupe en pensant à toi ce soir… C’était il y a longtemps, mais j’ai l’impression que c’était hier. Nous nous étions croisés par hasard, au détour du chemin. Qui est tombé sur qui, je l’ai oublié. Pourquoi nous sommes nous attardés ce jour-là, je l’ignore… Nous nous sommes assis sur ce…… Continue reading Demandes-le moi à nouveau…

I need a soulbag…

Since I decided to be a Valkyrie, I made a little research to be sure to be a good one.

That would be quite surprising. And I never thought I would argue with a Dane about Scandinavian mythology. Especially with Lucas.…… Continue reading Gods and Goddesses…

Venlig…

Venlig… Gentil… Friendly… Tonight I wonder if I am just lucky. Over the months, I built myself the ideal image of the venlig Danish peoples. I know some Danes out there must be assholes. Maybe even a lot of them. But up to this day, all the people I’ve been in touch with are such…… Continue reading Venlig…

Babettes Gæstebud on its way home…

I am pretty proud of myself just now. Normally, I would have posted some quick joyful comment on Facebook, but I try not to do that anymore… Now that I have this Cove to spread my every thoughts about Danish things, I prefer to spare my Facebook friends from all that. But here, I can…… Continue reading Babettes Gæstebud on its way home…
