Copenhagen, the dream coming true

Scandinavia to the Arctic Circle, the whole train. A one-month long journey through Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. Up to Rovaniemi, the city of Santa Claus, in the cold of northern Europe.

 

A school has just gained an initiatory journey that was to be respected by force us very far from home. Train more than the Arctic Circle can not go, so we decided to go there. Me and Mark, after five years spent on benches nearby, we decided to leave for our first real trip. From Bologna, train, greeting mothers, 18 years old and broken, to North Europe.

Bologna, Milan, then Switzerland, then Germany to Hamburg, where a station in tetra lived dozens of dark skin head. from Hamburg after a few hours of waiting, already cold night in Germany, are starting to Copenhagen.
We arrived the next day, at dawn, and we are a city already very cold, but sunny, and alive. Denmark is clearly going to fashion, because there's a lot of people, there are many tourists, especially young people, especially with the backpack. Like us, ultimately. Struggling to find housing, but in the end a hostel, a room with 50 other boys, a hole he is. It is not too bad, because we know other children of Bergamo, who will accompany us throughout the stay in Copenhagen. We're good there, between a visit to the Little Mermaid, to some museum, the transgressive Christiania, the enclave district of the city, where "run" un po 'di tutto.

After two days ini the capital decide to have us leave for a tour of the country. We reach up to Arhus, Odense through. A land piattissima, Denmark, which nell'ingenuità our 18 years, there also seems a little 'boring if there were not so before, but many really beautiful girls. Who have already started to go to school in September because it is made. And we of schools in those days, we have seen several.
But our time in Denmark is about to end. Return to Copenhagen, and from there by ferry, via Sweden.
