Just back from my first 2016 class, and I had to come and drop just a line. Life can be so funny sometimes! One of the words we talked about, and it wasn’t because I was bringing it up, was “Desværre”… Funny! Someone will probably understand.
Just before Christmas, I had the chance to finally find a Danish tutor. We met twice, and though we talked a loooooot about Denmark and Danish, people around us would never have guessed I was actually taking lessons. I was having way too much fun. Tomorrow, I go back to school in our little Café.…… Continue reading Going back to school!
Yesterday I was looking at comments on another blog, stating the various countries that had been visiting the author… I gotta say, although I was very comfortable with Denmark, Italy, USA and the occasionnal Canada flag, I was a tiny little bit jealous. I wanted to go on tour too, and visit other countries, and…… Continue reading World tour…
My brain works in mysterious ways… OK, stating the obvious, I know. I have a large collection of DVDs. But if I am zapping around one late evening, and I fall on the (very long) movie Camille Claudel, I will watch it until the last minute. I have the movie, I can watch it any…… Continue reading Show it to me…
I am not an autograph chaser… never been. When we went to Toronto last October, I brought my latest Mew album +- along, just as a lucky charm. I wasn’t expecting to meet with any member of the band. At the very last minute, just before getting seated in front of Lee’s Palace, I…… Continue reading Good memories…
Today’s international day is Joy Germ Day. Now, that just sounds silly. Knowing how the bipolar temperature is confusing people when it comes to dressing for outside, I thought I would have to pay closest attention to sneezing colleagues wanting to shake hands. No, we’re not talking about the flue being spread happily. It seems…… Continue reading One sick day!
The mailman was particularly welcome today… I received a tiny enveloppe from Europe, and it was my latest Christmas gift. Yeah, in Denmark, people receive gifts weeks before Xmas, well, I keep the jolly ambiance going after the holidays! So I received Kroner!! Nice and shiny, and probably wearing authentic Danish fingerprints!! Who knows… I…… Continue reading Mine første kroner!
I noticed something, and it might be a coincidence… But I think not. I admit my theory revolves around a restraint number of subjects, but still, I think there is a connection! I think there is a mysterious phenomenon happening in Denmark. From my (little) experience of Danes, it seems that after puberty, they age…… Continue reading Hvor gammel er du?
Today is a weird day. I am just incredibly emotional for no particular reason… I didn’t notice when I woke up, but it was already work-in-progress, and when I got to the office, it just punched me in the face Muhammad Ali’s style. So I’ve been on the edge of sobbing for absolutely no reason…… Continue reading Hmmm…
Love is about little details… I had stomach surgery in my younger years. To protest against the intrusion, my stomach fought back in many weird ways… It has been holding a grudge ever since. To make a long story short, I can’t eat large amounts of sugar or greasy food. Bread and all that…… Continue reading Danish dogs…
