SLUTSLUTSLUT

hahaha
Since I've been in Denmark, there have been several things which make me laugh every time I see them.

1. The word "SLUT" written in every second shop window. No- I'm not living in the red light district- in danish, "slut" means "finish", and it refers to the finishing of the sales, or "udsalg". doesn't stop me laughing at it everytime though haha!

2. The legal age for drinking is 16, yet the legal age for smoking is 18! Weird? i think so.

3. You'd think that being like -81720198012801 degrees, noone would ever eat or drink anything that isnt hot as. well, no. i dont think ive ever been anywhere that eats as much as icecream as they do here!

4. this isnt something funny about denmark, but more about my lack of being able to speak danish. Whilst washing my face this morning i got out what i thought was makeup remover and rubbed it over my eye. turns out it was toner- not fun.


anyway, i went into Copenhagen yesterday afternoon to see the city and do some shopping. its so sick! love it. going skiing in switzerland tomorrow, so need to go pack.
im feeling heaps better than before, cos everyone has kinda accepted that i cant speak danish and speak to me much more in english which is sweet.
miss you perthhh
