Aarhus Day

Sunday, November 18, 2012


It looks like my days in Denmark are numbered (but more on that later when my plans have firmed up) so last Monday I took the day off work and headed north on the train to the second largest city in Denmark -- Aarhus. It is a really nice place, if you ever have the chance to visit. I know quite a few folks who think that Aarhus has a little something special that Copenhagen doesn't. I couldn't agree more. Luckily the weather was nice (well, by Danish standards anyhow) and I spent the whole day just wandering in and out of shops, cafes, and graffiti-filled corridors. I felt a little guilt over not visiting any museums (isn't someone working in the museum field supposed to visit ALL the museums?) but having the chance to just sit in a coffee shop and drink coffee and do some writing was thoroughly beneficial. I then topped off the day by seeing the Swedish band, First Aid Kit in the evening, which was really amazing and great fun. All in all -- a wonderful day. Goodbye for now, Aarhus... hope to see you again someday!

A few Instagrams from a quick trip to Kolding last Saturday. I walked around the city a bit, browsed a few shops, and visited a castle called Koldinghus...




A Short Train Ride Away...

Friday, October 21, 2011

Took a quick trip to Aarhus yesterday to buy some comic supplies from one of the few comic book stores in the area. Though I wasn't in Aarhus long, I was there long enough to decide that I really like it. Quite a beautiful city. Since I was on a specific mission, I only snapped a few photos. But as you can see, I was quite taken by the architecture of one of the churches there. Hopefully Justin and I will have a chance to go back soon!
