Pics from Copenhagen last weekend

Jaegersborggade with a lot of small shops and restaurants. E.g Manfred´s & Vin where we had dinner

In Germany they have Arschloch, but in Denmark they have Aarsleff..

Assistens Cemetery where e.g. author H.C. Andersen is burried


I think I had at least 4 Danish pastries within my 48 hours in DEN

Room Service Smörrebröd. Looks better than it tasted.

I´m back

I´m not only back on the blog after 2 months but I was also back in Dubai after 4 months.
It was nice to be back this time as a tourist and not as a resident. All the things that annoy me about the place was easier to deal with when I knew that I´ll be out of the place within 2 weeks. It was also nice to explore the city with a new more positive attitude.

Spent 2 weeks staying at K´s place. I mostly only slept at the house beacuse days and evenings I spent around the city exploring and eating a lot. It´s very hard to stay away from all the food temptations around the city and it´s malls.
Used buses and metro as much as possible because I can´t stand the traffic in Dubai so I really hate driving there. I have to say that the metro and the upgraded bus network is some of the best things that has happened to Dubai in the last couple of years. When I first arrived in Dubai in 2005 I used the bus network as much as possible for the first year but it was very time consuming compared to this day.

The weather was nice. Shorts and flip flop weather during the day and a bit "chilly" during the night.



My "hotel" for the 2 weeks

New years eve. Burj Khalifa





The smallest Mosque I´ve seen


7 am at the silk market

Not many tourists around at 7:17 am



The boat is called an Abra



Only the ones that speak Finnish will get this

The Palm Jumeira in the background




The larger building in the middle is where I lived for the 3 first years in Dubai. The best thing about the building was the outdoor runningtrack on the roof.

Yo sushi



One of my favourite spots in Dubai. The driving range at The Montgomerie golf club

The gate hotel at Ibn Battuta mall

Yeah that´s the problem. I had to buy a new map everyday...
