Unsaid things and a bowl of soup…
Unsaid things on my mind this morning again… Again, it is a bit stretched, as I guess those ideas have been fighting with my brain all night, so I should say ‘still’ and not ‘again’. But this morning (9 am as we ‘speak’), I have a warm bowl of soup to keep my spirit warm…… Continue reading Unsaid things and a bowl of soup…
Unsaid things…
It is really late and I am in bed, not sleeping. Thinking about unsaid things. Not secrets, just unsaid ideas, and opinions. I have a lot of them, not quite ready to be told, or simply not having found the right person to be told to… Ideas are complicated when you pay attention to details.…… Continue reading Unsaid things…
Ferie…
I am currently working on my Danish Christmas post, but I am slowed down by my Christmas vacation. Not because of holidays’ preps or time spent rubbing my white and grey fur ball. Although both would be excellent reasons to stay away from the keyboard. No, the fact is that I have a weird relationship…… Continue reading Ferie…
What does the fox say?
Tonight there is a special celebration downtown. Three Vikings are “skalling” for the upcoming departure of one of them… Yeah, you’re leaving tomorrow, trotting back to meet your pack. A week ago I didn’t even know you. Last sunday, in early afternoon, I was sitting in this Café on Emery street, so nervous my hands…… Continue reading What does the fox say?

“The Danish way of life is marked by punctuality, modesty and above all equality” This is a quote from a website I visited, that sums up perfectly the way I see typical Danes. I know that not all Danes are like that, but there is a profound feeling of equality and respect that I’ve felt…… Continue reading Denmark respect!
When Québec and Denmark meet… In person!
It is late… I should go to bed, close my eyes and get a good rest. But it just seems impossible for the moment. In about 12 hours, I have an appointment with my future Danish tutor. I have only met Danes once before, and my first time was pathetic. I’ll write about it someday,…… Continue reading When Québec and Denmark meet… In person!
Hans Ø…
Hans Island is not much more than a big rock peaking in the water of the Kennedy Channel between Greenland and Canada. Really, not much more than a rock: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/Hans+Island/@77.2794897,-31.3658724,3z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x4fcf2bbd21314427:0xa411e99efbd18178 Why do I “Fun-fact” about it, you might wonder? Well it so appears that Canada and Denmark are fighting for the 1290 per…… Continue reading Hans Ø…
Første måned…
I am still trying to recover from the shock of knowing there actually is a Danish young man in Montreal. At this very moment. Okay, as I write this post… Because who knows, maybe you clicked on the bad option and ended on this 2 or 3 years old post by mistake. Maybe when you…… Continue reading Første måned…
