Living Room Hotel Malmö

Things are coming together for us finally and packing has commenced! I wasn't sure where to put all the stuff we had bought for the trip so I started laying it out on the dining room table and now the whole thing is covered. But it gives us a good chance to have everything laid out in front of us and move things around according to how we want to pack them. You see, we have to ...

... t come. So I guess I'm asking to pay and walk around a bit more soon. 11:56 I think I must be roundabout crossing my first border. Yay! Either that or I just crossed it already - haha. I went to smoke my last spliff in Arnhem outside the station on a bench. That must've been attractive because soon there was a weird looking fellow asking if he could sit next to me. "Sure", I answered, but that wasn't the end of the conversation. He asked if I was ...

... Oh **** Yes! While there is apparently no need for canned diced tomatoes or tempeh in Sweden, they sure know their barbeque sauce...and that's what really matters. (For those of you that are unfamiliar with the inside practices of my former place of employment...Sweet Baby Rays is what makes the world go 'round at least a few times a week.) School starts tomorrow, so we'll see how everything goes.... love sage

... for something good and pure. Back to the hostel for a quick siesta, then a walk to find dinner. The 30 Kroner Asian takeout boxes I've seen everywhere were tempting me all day long, and though it was only vaguely Asian-tasting, you can't beat the price. Fried rice with spicy beef, and chicken stir-fried with mushrooms and bamboo shoots. I ate while listening to some old-school jazz playing on Hojbro Plads. Personally, I prefer ...

... out coats and when we got to Malmo I thought I was actually going to freeze to death! It was bitter! The town was quite pretty with loads of flower baskets hanging from all the buildings but apart from that there wasn't much to see, so after a coffee and a wonder around we decided to head back to Copenhagen (which was just as cold!) and bought some amazing Goulash to eat on the train ...

I just arrived in Berlin. Looks like a great city. I think I will end up staying for at least 4 nights. In this update, I will describe my last day in Copenhagen. I met these 2 Canadian "kids" from Vancouver at my hostel - Chris and Peter. I say kids as they are only 22 yrs old - around the same age as most people in the hostel. I am definitely starting to feel like the senior citizen on the backpacking circuit. I imagined it would ...

... information on where to stay and how to get there. I set out with a few hostels in mind and hoofed it a ways to find them. All booked!!! Yikes...after trying several i headed back to the train station arming myself with information for hotels this time and ones that were cheaper and pricing things on priceline and hotels.com, lastminute.com etc. so i could walk in and say you should have a price better than...if you even ...

... in the way the whole Denmark is. But for someone who descended from the north and saw other, even more understated Danish settlements, just as I had, København looked like a beauty who puts on just enough make-up to render herself utterly irresistible, and yet stops well short of losing the measure of good taste. The way I see it, København, along with entire Denmark, is Europe at its best. History, tradition, small-scale and a subdued, but eventually unmistakeable wealth ...

... reservedele med ud til baaden, skoent de fyldte en smule er det jo dejligt at vide at der bliver passet godt paa baaden. Inden at vi sagde farvel til familien naaede vi lige at faa noget at drikke paa den nyaabnede Starbuck's ude i lufthavnen, det er lidt sjovt at se noget saa aerkeamerikansk i Kastrup lufthavn.

... up to see the train approaching! This got me laughing even harder and I'm sure I looked like a crazy person, laughing by myself on the platform! I got off the train at central station and walked past Tivoli to Stroget. I wandered for about an hour, taking in the scenery, and then stopped at a Mexican restaurant called Mama Rosa's. I ordered tacos and a beer, and had the best tacos of my life! They baked the tacos with cheese, and even though I had to eat them with ...
