Kun for mig (Only for me)

As soon as you get on a plane, buckle up your seatbelt, and then the plane takes off, you forget where you’re from and what you do and you focus on your destination – the excitement, the adventures, and the newness of it all.

I love Copenhagen – it’s so beautiful. People are beautiful and I can eat the street hot dogs every single day.

Nyhavn – the most touristic and expensive area of Copenhagen. It’s pronounced as Nyu-hawn.  Danish language is like music to my ears.

I was excited to see The Little Mermaid Statue. Going there was a treat – the wind was blowing in my face, causing me to get chapped lips. It was so cold.

I thought I would see a grand statue of Little Mermaid. When I saw the statue, I thought – that’s it? But duh – she was Little mermaid after all.

A man told us that from April – November next year, she will be in China to be used in an exhibition. They will also send some Danish seawater to China so Little Mermaid will not get homesick.

I forgot the names of the places in Copenhagen. I did go to a very cool museum with palm trees inside and a cozy cafe which reminds you of old London times (borrowed these words from Val).

Copenhagen is a b(v)iking city. Full of beautiful people riding their bikes even on cold weather. It’s a very green country. Friendly, laidback, fashionable.

Obama was also visiting Copenhagen when I was there because of the Olympics 2016. Chicago, Madrid, and Rio de Janeira were candidate cities. Rio de Janeiro won.
