So we drove up from Berlin to to Rostock to catch the ferry to Denmark with only one minor detour thanks to our new navigation system which took us on a nice tour of the asparagus farming area of northern gremany, just a small delay and after a few hours we were on the ferry and enjoying the sea breeze and duty free cider.
After a 45 minute ferry cruise we arrived in Denmark and headed to up to Copenhagen only another hour or so drive north, As we were soon to find out nothing is to far away in denmark.
So we had arrived in Copenhagen and hesitantly made our way to the adresse where we had or thought we had organised an apartment to live in for the time we were here, but would find nothing there as there was no apartment and we had been just one part of many internet scams going around.
With hearts full of dissapointment we got our shit together and and managed to find a hostel to stay in untill we came up with a better plan, defiantly not the way we were expecting to spend our first nite and easter monday in our new home town but we were positive things were going to get better.
In th next days were didnt leave the hostel much only for food and the occasional leg stretching as we were so busy calling and emailing any adds we found for places to stay on the internet and from what we heard it was going to take some time to get something. On the brighter side we had beautiful weather for that week.Later that week we managed to get in contact with a couple of friends Brendan and Tilda who we met in Kitz last winter and had heard were living here, they were awsome enough to offer us a place to crash on there floor so we didnt have to pay for the hostel anymore as it was starting to get pretty expensive and boring, also i had only a few days before i had to start work. So with this in mind we kept at it and then out of nowhere it seemed we got a call from a guy with a room who wanted to show it to us, its funny because neither Sophia or myself can even remember applying for such a room but we thought we would give it a look. It was perfect or perfect enought for now but the only thing was it wasn´t furnished but apon asking our now landlord Lars who seems to be a bit of a ruler said he would take us to Ikea and buy us a new bed and wardrobe to go with some other bits and pieces he had for us to use and all for the same price rent.
So it seemed that after turning up to dissapointment, parking fines to go with the worlds most expensive parking and rediculious rules that go with owning a car here we had finaly had some luck, we had a place to stay in a nice area, which we have since made our own. And its very close to our good friends Brendan and Tildas place oh and there is also the trainline feature view running parralelle with our window and only about 20 m away but we barley here it and we get awsome sunsets aswell.
I guess when you move to a new place you have to expect a few ups and downs its just part of the process of getting to know your new home and we have certianly had our fair share of those in the short time we´ve been here but if anything i think its helped us get to know our new home even better and now we can sit back and enjoy what it has to offer. So to end this rant heres some pics mostly taken by sophia because im lazy...
