(Very) early post…

I might as well have written this one in my sleep… I have been working where I work for almost 7 years, and still haven’t come to an understanding of why it is necessary to be available to retailers at 5 O’clock in the morning. Being available at 5, meaning leaving home at 4h45 (yeah,…… Continue reading (Very) early post…

Slight change of plans…

Due to unverified but still concerning enough information, there has been a slight change of program regarding my upcoming trip. After thinking it over, I decided that Denmark wasn’t all that fascinating after all. The language is hellish to speak and/or understand, and there was really so little to visit anyway! No, I have set…… Continue reading Slight change of plans…

Capharnaüm…

They almost all sat at the table… Silence filled the room as they were getting accustomed to each other’s presences, after all that time wondering how it would be to finally meet. A- Where is 1? 2- She’s sleeping, we’ve kept telling you that the three of us can’t be seen together, there’s always one…… Continue reading Capharnaüm…

Where’s the beef???

Remember the Wendy’s commercial? Good times…   There is only one restaurant in Montréal, if not in Québec, that serves Scandinavian dishes. It is called “Beaufort Café” and I go there from time to time to snack on smørrebrød with my back to the windows, mentally pretending I am in Denmark! Recently, they posted the…… Continue reading Where’s the beef???

Tangled love…

I bought myself new earbud headphones a few days ago. Tangle-free for that matter, and I thought to myself “Wow! That is a killing idea! No more untangling!! Untangling headphones has taken sooooo much of my precious time in the past!” Well, that was before New headphones met Old headphones in my bag. Either the…… Continue reading Tangled love…

Peanut butter in Denmark…

When I felt I was about to overdose after a couple of days of intense planin for my upcoming trip, a few minutes ago, I thought “why not make a random research on the Internets?” Why a random research? Why not? I’d rather learn something I never would have known otherwise than get up, turn…… Continue reading Peanut butter in Denmark…

I should have warned my mother…

About you. Or maybe I shouldn’t have mentionned you at all. In either cases, I should have been more aware! It started with little innocent comments… Who’s that man who commented on your latest Facebook picture? And I told her it was one of my friends, one she hadn’t met. “Oh…” she replied, and that…… Continue reading I should have warned my mother…

Je parle…

I know some people who only speak French. And people that only speak English… I never could have done that. Very early, I discovered I had an easiness with language learning. It probably came from my interest in other languages, or at least, that helped a lot. I learned English out of pure need. I…… Continue reading Je parle…

Danish bureaucracy…

On December 8th of last year, I made a public request for a hug, thinking it would be harmless since the potential hug-receiver was in Denmark, with no reason to think he would show up in Québec anytime soon, and I wasn’t about to go to Denmark either, as much as I longed for it……… Continue reading Danish bureaucracy…

D day -27 — The Turtle’s Journey…

Today has been pretty quiet preparation-wise. I had other things to do, and it was my last day off work for a while. I had to stock on some energy for the week to come. But I didn’t want to leave a blank page in my trip’s book, so I just wanted to take the […]…… Continue reading D day -27 — The Turtle’s Journey…
