At last…. Well, not really, but blog wise, it was about time, I will give you that!
I was now in Aarhus, probably the city I would miss the less. Not that it was ugly, or dirty, or uninteresting… But Aarhus was harsh with me from the start. I wasn’t even in town, and people already kind of rejected me!
I had couchsurfing plans that didn’t work out, and as the day went by, I switched to researches on Airbnb for a room or an apartment to rent.
There again, no luck, but I was kind of fearing that I was a little short in time to find anybody ready to host me… So I went for my last resort (not that it was really bad, but it was the most expensive way I could afford to get a roof over my head); the hostel!
First day in Aarhus was spent mostly walking around, looking for good free Wi-Fi spots and hoping to find a place to stay. (by the way… If you are in Aarhus and looking for a hot Hot Spot, try the bench in front of “Magasin” in Lille Torv Square)
Oh, and since I don’t have much to say about this first day in Aarhus, here is a map with three important places… The little red heart is for my favorite Wi-Fi spot, the yellow star for my hostel, and the green spot (hi there, Green Spot!) a place we’ll be discussing in my next post… Den Gamle By, literally “The old town”…
Oh, and I feel generous… a view of “Magasin”, with my favorite bench – in Aarhus! (spent a loooot of time there, hoping for good news LOL)
Thanks Google!
And, as usual, a few pictures taken along my stroll…

Just like Creedence Clearwater Revival: Oh Lord, Stuck in Aarhus Again! At least the blog is. At least it is not Viborg. Yea, Viborg. Bring back Viborg. I miss Viborg (stifling a sob). Hand me a handkerchief, won’t you…..

I am considering coming back to Viborg on my way back to Aalborg… (almost) Nobody knows what I really did in Denmark after all… I might write a fantasy suite to my up-to-now pretty reality-oriented blog 😉

I have been reading about your trip until post and it sounds like you had a great time in Denmark. I have lived in the areas, as you have been visiting in Denmark. I was born in Odense.

It was even better than what I was expecting… I still have about 10 days to write and document with pictures, for the cities of Odense (still 2 days), Svendborg, Bagenkop, Skagen and then my last days in Copenhagen…. 🙂 I loved Odense, I walked for such a long time along the river, near the zoo. Beautiful! And the people I met there were super nice!

what’s with all the borg there? Did they have a star trek experience like jean Luc picard?

“Borg” means “castle” in Danish… so many cities were named after the castles they were originally built around 🙂 (well… that’s what they say, but I’ll investigate the Startreck theory… there might be something there :P)
