I live in Denmark, I lived for a year in Slovenia and one semester in Spain. I travelled most countries in Europe and am now making my way to the neighbouring countries. I like to go a little further away from home on every trip than last time - this makes me feel that I have not suddently come to a completely unknown place but that I at least know the area or have a feeling of the region by having visited countries near by previously.


To stand between two chapters of your life is more difficult than all the problems you might have in each chapter.
Many chapters are written in my lifebook and many times have I been standing with the knowledge that a new chapter would start.
But never before have I had a period so long in between with the knowledge of what wonderfull life I leave behind and with no knowledge of what will come. After my one year chapter as a volunteer in Slovenia is over I have one and a half month before my chapter as a university student will begin. In this month I will travel. Find myself outside the normality of a chapter. All alone, without my friends, my family and the surroundings I love.

A new chapter begins as I am planning to move to Spain for a semester, but before settling in Madrid I will once again stand in between two chapters - leaving something behind and awaiting something new, while travelling la peninsula.

My chapter as a bachelor student is about to end and I look towards a new chapter as a master student. But before I begin this chapter of my life, I will once again get on the road. This time brings me to the Caucasus. For one month will I be outside my own world, outside the chapters of my book.

a bit from Baku

 Asia » Azerbaijan » Baku
I chose to buy two large sunglasses today so that I can really look like a celebrity! The reason is that we have been quite a lot in AZTV. Firstly, we appeared at a pressconference, where all of us had to tell why we had chosen Azerbaijan and how we liked it so far! Later on, a tv crew came to our language course to film us while having class, and afterwards I was chosen for an interview. Some of the other participants have been interviewed for the radio or been at the live morning show on tv. This has resulted [View Full Entry]

Ganja - Going rural

 Asia » Azerbaijan
Today was the first day we got truely out of Baku, and got to see something different from the buildingboom of the metropol. Our destination was Ganja, a town approx 320 km east of Baku. I had previous to my travel heard that the pictures of the old and new presidents are hanging everywhere. I had not seen much of this in Baku and quite thought that people has exatuated the number of pictures hanging around. But here in Ganja they hang on every corner, three meters high on every officiel building; Heydar Alijev and his son Ilham shaking hands looking [View Full Entry]

So here is my first update from Azerbaijan. I am at the moment participating in an AEGEE-summer university in Baku, learning the Azeri language, which is related to Turkish. We are approx 13 participants and just as many organizers from the universities in Baku. So let's begin Baku, where east meets west. Where Islam co-exist with capitalism. And where Ladas and Mercedes fill the street A chok of culture for a Danish girl! Much is differet here. - both of good and bad! The first thing I noticed as I arrived in Baku was the noise. The streets are full of [View Full Entry]

Since I've subscribed a whole lot of you marvellous people back home to my blog, I have to be extra good at writing interesting stuff. So lets start with what I am best at - complaining Copenhagen Airport: usually one of my all time favorite places. The atmosphere of people going away on holiday, bustling around in long lines while chatting about things to do at their destination point and of people arriving, being welcomed with (perhaps too many) Danish flags and kisses and hugs. But today I didn't like it. As CpH becomes larger and as more and more companies [View Full Entry]

Saturday in Ljubljana
I arrived in Ljubljana today, for the first time in three years. Being back is really strange, the city has changed and yet it is the same. New people, old people, new smells, old smells. Places that I remember, places that have come, places that no longer exist. I am staying with Joao in a big flat in Slovenska. It is quite an inventars place. The people living here are rather artistic in one way or the other, or so I heard as I have yet to meet them. But the place certainly gives an idea of those who inhabit it. [View Full Entry]

My bachelor degree is soon to be a reality and my time as a bachelor student is about to end. It has been a stressfull but a wonderfull year and I will look back at it with joy, remembering all the great times I've had with the people around me. But before my master studies will begin I have a bit of travelling to do. Once again I will get on the road, experiencing new and fantastic places. This time I will leave for the Caucasus. I will join a two weeks summer university in Baku, learning a bit of the [View Full Entry]

I have been off from writing for a while. This is mainly due to my bachelor coming up and so forth... but so what - that should not be an excuse for not writing a bit about one particular country which I have now visited five times in one year. It is the big scary wolf of a neighbouring country. It is Germany, the object of endless jokes by Danes. It is the country of sausages, beer-festivals and reunification. It is jocking suits, clinical comercials and syncronising of everything. It is the autobahn on the way to France where you only [View Full Entry]

I am well back in Denmark and have finished last semester with a very nice 11. This means that my summer is starting and I can engage myself in work and books and relaxation. But since I do have to work all summer, my only real vacation was my visit to Brussels, which I now hope to tell a bit about. And hopefully with the adding of some embarrasing pictures of Meike, whom I visited there. The best thing about travelling a week somewhere, is when there is a person who greets you in the airport. Unfortunatly, Meike wasn't in [View Full Entry]

Dank u wel, Brussel Merci beaucoup, Bruxelles When I went to high school we went on a studytrip to Brussels and Strasburg. We went to see the EU-headquarters and NATO and Wee Manneke Pis. It was interesting and I got to learn a lot on that trip. One of the things was that it is never a good idea to get drunk the day before having a lecture in the Commision. This I discovered after fearfully haven snorred through the entire lecture so loud that the people around me could not hear what was said. Anyhow, my point in this [View Full Entry]

As time goes by

 Europe » Denmark » Copenhagen
My semester is about to end. All I need is to do the final exam. I have had a crazy time since my return to Denmark. I do not even feel that I have had the time to stop up and breath for a moment. A lot of confusion came out of my stay in Madrid. It took them three months to send me my papers, which means that I had a long period doing which I had no idea whether I would pass my basic studies. That was extremely stressfull, but luckily they finnally sended everything and even a little [View Full Entry]
