Zumba

I have not been in any of Zumba classes since I moved to Europe. So, I was so excited to join today’s 1h free open air zumba class.

Stones of life

I just stepped a quite important stone of my life: getting a permanent, full time teaching position in Denmark. It’s an open contract, so now I am applying for a new work visa, crossing fingers for a smooth visa process. This translated to some more years working and living in Denmark, which was for me a fantastic news.

Speak not

Paint your faith

My trip Milan landed me to a small yet beautiful church called Chiesa di San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore, located at Corso Magenta 15. It was on number #1 of my to do list in Milan. But I went there the second day. I am so thankful, I made the time to go there. The small church was filled with paintings of faith.

Some of my favourites were the beheaded of Paul, the first sin, and Noah. I also took a replica of the last supper since I couldnot get the ticket to see the original painting.

Shopping in Milan, Italy

If money could buy happiness, I bet Milan is the best place to go. 😉 ❤

Before I flew to Milan, I followed the unwritten rules to contact all my italian friends to “hand-wave” them that I am going there. Interestingly, both said they had never spent time in Milan to be able to give any recommendation for me. In fact, one of them actually said that I wont like the city, that it’s different than any other city in Italy, so.. and so… Made me even more curious.

Ostello Bello Grande, Milan

 

 

 

 

 

One word. Fantastic.

 

My trip to Milan is special because I have not been travelling alone for so long. In fact, I could not even remember the last time I travelled alone. So, to lessen my worry, I asked for a hostel recommendation from my friend. And she said that choosing Ostello Bello Grande would never go wrong. And I prove it. Located in Via Roberto Lepetit, 33, 20124 Milano, Italy, this hostel is just 5min walk airport shuttle terminal. It’s also 7min walk from Milan Central Station.

I arrived last night around 1AM. 24h reception welcomed me with a smile and welcome drink. I checked in to a 5-bed-mixed dormitary room which was occupied with me and one guy. Milan was so warm that night but luckily the room has an AC. I slept soundly immediately. Woke up and took a shower, I realised a girl came last night (morning?). I didnot hear her. Thanks for being quiet, good hostel manner.

Dansk Uddannelse 2

DU 2 er slut. 

Finally. I am “officially” done with my danish classes. Last week, I had my last exam. And I could get the completion certificate next Monday.

Stockholm, Sweden

I had a little girls boot camp last month. It’s for me-the broken hearted, since my uk visa application was rejected. So, rather than crying over the spilled milk, we went to see Stockholm.

Hill Top Trine, Giant No.2

Bakketop Trine

Seeing one of Danbo’s giants made me feel like seeing all of them in an instance. But this girl giant called Trine is a bit tricky to find.

I found her after I visited Louis. They were 6km apart. I cycled south from Louis following the bike lane. In my opinion, the bike trip itself was great. Passing some parks, surrounded by greens and fresh air. Just nice. After making a left turn, I immediately saw her sitting on a small hill swarmed by little children.

The Sleeping Louis, Giant No.1

Sovende Louis – De glemte kæmper

One of my projects this summer is to visit all Thomas Danbo’s giants sculptures. And this is number 1.
