Page Street, Westminster Page Street, Westminster Or 5 weeks in London, a wrapup.

The Girl and The Thames This is the Thames. And when you look at it, the water doesn’t really look clean. But clean or not, this is the water I get out of my tap at home. We get our drinking water from the Thames up here. And it looks clean coming out of the [...]

London City Hall On a day like today, where spring has arrived in London, I don’t need anything else than my book. a sandwich from Marks & Spencer (still waiting for love flowering at the counter for people with under 5 items though), and a bench in a park to sit on. The sun is [...]

Don’t run Please don’t run Stay with me I feel sad When you run Sands of time Are lying On my chest Stay in bed I feel sad When you run Notes: the lyrics are from Air – Run – a weird but beautiful song, and lyrics that couldn’t be more perfect for this picture. [...]

London Cityhall London Cityhall Excuse me, I just need to clean my hands after having indulged my Chicken Teriyaki sandwich for lunch. Life is definetely not bad in London. Well this is your weekly (long and boring) update about how things are going in London. 4 weeks, goodness, time surely flies when you are having [...]

Lawless Heart – a poem

14 reasons to love the London Underground: If you just missed a train, the next one won’t be far away. You never really know for sure how the world looks like when you popup above ground again. Life is an adventure. Yes sure there are delays sometimes. But I have never seen delays being notified [...]

I have now become one of the millions of people commuting from and to work in London every day.

I have only been here (not counting the single week I was here in February) 2 weeks now, but it feels so much longer. Especially the jobsearch – it felt like ages before I actually had success, and it has been stressfull, with sleepless nights and all, but looking back at it, 2 weeks is [...]

As I am actually sitting in the internetcafe on Piccadilly Circus, close to the Cafe. I will try to order a wireless broadband connection as soon as possible this week, I have no idea how long it will take, hopefully not long. The room in Westminster is great, but without a tv and without internet, [...]

I had time enough because I learned from previous experiences : don’t overestimate the speed of the tube.

The phone on Monday. “Ingrid, erhm, welcome to London …”. That voice.

Some absolutely worthless information about London. There is both a Denmark Hill and a Holland Park in London It is absolutely impossible to find a garbage bin on any of the big train/underground stations (terror fear) The “One sexual reference” warning on the filmlisting for The Weather Man is just way cute. I have been [...]

The Milleniumbridge with St. Pauls Cathedral in the background If you are sick and tired of reading about London already : you can skip the rest of this post.

The beauty in our London Skies, You know the sunlight always shines, Behind the clouds of London Skies.

And he said “Oh welcome back!”. “Well, thank You very much, it’s nice to be back ! And this time I will stay in London”. “Oh yeah, you were the Danish girl right ?”. “Well, the Dutch girl from Denmark, yes indeed”. “I remember” he said, “the European girl !”. “Yes”, I said smiling at [...]

Hello London I could bore you with loads of things that happened today, but I am so tired that you have to do with this pathetic poem I wrote in the plane flying from a very snowy Aarhus in Denmark (which gave an hour delay) to London. The plane speeds up And it ascends Aarhus [...]

It has been ordered, the ticket. For the 28th of February, ?rhus – London at 10.20 am from ?rhus with Ryanair. A one way ticket. Which is a weird feeling. As if there is no turning back. Which is good, because I don’t want to turn back. Which direction I have to go, I have [...]
