Merry Christmas!

I don’t have so much to say other than Merry Christmas! I had a lovely Christmas with my family in Denmark, and then I had my very first Christmas in England as well. As Christmas is celebrated on the 25th in the UK I was able to celebrate it twice this year 😄 I wish you all the very best!

Restaurant Ofelia with Maiken

A few weeks back I won a dinner at the theater “Skuespilhuset”‘s inhouse restaurant Ofelia. I invited my bae Maiken to come with me yesterday, and it was absolutely lovely. Food was great and the restaurant looks beautiful overlooking the water. The restaurant serves lunch as well but it looks even better at night due to the lights around the harbor.

First time Matt’s parents visits CPH

On the weekend of 18th December – 20th december 2015 Matt’s parents (and Matt) came to visit me in Copenhagen. It was their first time ever in Denmark I believe, and it was such a lovely weekend. I really love how supportive his parents are of us. I do after all live in another country than him/them. I really like them and appreciate them.

From Torquay to Plymouth

I wanted to share a few photos from the drive from Torquay to Plymouth. One of the things I loved about being on the road was actually all the scenery. England is really beautiful with all its hills and mountains. I loved it. I loved driving around (okay sitting in the passenger seat) England and taking in all the scenery. Hopefully some of my shots will do it justice.

We didn’t see much of Plymouth since we arrived semi late. We only stayed there overnight to continue towards Cornwall. The few things we did see seemed lovely though, especially the harbor.

Torquay

After spending a lovely morning and day in Exeter we decided to swing by Torquay for a meal. I have a friend who lives there and he recommended a burger restaurant to us. Apparently it had won some award for being one of the best in the UK. I would have liked to see my friend but as luck would have it he was in Exeter as I was heading to Torquay. Next year perhaps. We had a little walk around in Torquay before heading to the restaurant. We hadn’t booked any table but it wasn’t too busy when we arrived so we got one. After 30 minutes the place was packed! So glad we got a table because the burgers were great, and so were the chili-cheese fries, although they were a little bit too spicy for me. After our dinner we continued towards Plymouth.
