6 flights - 10 days

I just finished that! An interesting conference at work, a refreshing weekend with a good friend and a much needed business trip that i can finally cross off my list.

So I spend the last weekend in Mamlo, Sweden - a beautiful little city that is connected to Denmark with a long bridge. My friend, Sandra, studies there so i paid her a visit.
Sandra, as an encouragement decided to let me take charge of the whole weekend
Now, if you know sandra, you'll know that it's a hard thing for her to do - she's a lot like me. Which also means she's GREAT!

So day one - shopping and talking and eating light, fat free food! Best way to spend the weekend..

Day two COPENHAGEN!
OH i have not had so much fun in a LONG LONG time!
So first we ventured out (an hour late of course) to see the little mermaid,,, my childhood star!

After a good hike in acceptable european weather, beautiful ice cream and loadz of pics we decided to take a boat trip around all the canals.... that was almost perfect! if it werent for 5 loud abnoxious italian guys sitting at the back being.... italian!

Then i FINALLY made it to an amusement park! YAY - roller coasters and swinging from 63 meters above the earth.
I was scared! but i am glad i did it... i did miss the pantomime show - it would have been awesome to see one for real :(
We also saw some sharks,, and my friend thought i was crazy as i sang baby shark all the time


I had been inspired by Jen in this video:



I got home on thursday at 3:30 and had to be ready in party mode in 4 hours. Clean house, shower, look pretty, oder drinks and snacks and make sure surpize welcome back party for nirsin goes as planned.
It was a blast, partly due to the fact that is was FULL of nomadlifers!
superluli, nisrin, dodyg,kent,tom,christhebrit, brodie, arthur, farzina, mustafa, purveya el hindeya, askoura, maidaoud, meyouka, martha, nora,kaitlin.
There were also a bunch of other almost equally as cool as the nomadlifers,,, almost!

Thanks you guys, you were PERFECT!
