Most expensive cities

I read in the Metro newspaper that the top 12 most expensive cities have been updated recently. Copenhagen is number 8! And what about Montreal?! Well, we are at number.... 80!!!! The only Canadian city in the top 50 is Toronto (47). I guess that's one of those charts that you don't really wanna be part of...

Curious to see what number 80 looks like? Here's a photo I took on my way to work last week (Square Victoria, downtown).

Danish Feta

When we had lunch, Jeppe told us that Denmark lost a case agains't Greece concerning the use of the word 'feta'. Only feta produced in Greece can keep the name. I was at the supermarket last Saturday and I saw some Danish feta. I thought it might be my last chance to see a 'Danish feta' label so I bought it!

Here's a photo for Wézo ;-)

Danmark+Sverige June 2006

A long time dream came true when I visited a little part of Scandinavia (June 13-June 20 '06). I stayed a full week in Copenhagen (Cph), the wallpaper city that was haunting my thoughts for sooo long. I also did a one-day trip to Malmö in Sweden since there's a 16km bridge (Oresund) connecting Cph and Malmö. I'll post and comment some photos from my trip on here but I'll also upload them on a Web based photo album for everyone who is curious to discover a piece of Scandinavia.

I must say a big hello to Jeppe and Vibeke, two very sweet Danes who invited us to hang out with them for a concert at Tivoli and to share a Danish lunch at their place. For anyone interesting in Photoblogs and Denmark, make sure to check out these 2 blogs:

For once, I was the lucky traveller who had the chance to visit Denmark! Previously, when I was travelling to Europe and looking at the airport screens for connecting flights, I was so envious at the flights going to Sweden or Denmark... and now it was MY turn. I was so happy, I took pictures of all the pieces of evidence...Am I crazy? A little bit, but hey, life would be boring if there was not a little bit of craziness.
