Leaving Europe

The Rock Star style continues:

I left Ibiza and got into Copenhagen very early Monday morning and had 1,5 day in my hometown before NYC was calling my name. It was an insanely busy time and after a farewell dinner and rosé with my partner in crime Tine at Victor (A classic Copenhagen spot) I decided to stay up all night to catch up on work and re-pack. Who needs sleep anyways, right? 😉

After 2 months of traveling my usual 5 minutes ‘throwing things into a random suit case’ type of packing didn’t quite work. I had a lot of stuff. No really – a lot!! And I had to use my detail oriented skills (geeesh, do I have those..??) to make everything fit into the waaaay to small space my suit cases hold. Yes in plural. More than one suitcase.

So when the sun began to rise over beautiful Copenhagen I woke up my mother and stepfather to say our goodbyes for this time. I always stay with my family when in Denmark. I totally love their place and we get along very well.

They love to cook, drink exquisite wines and during the winter we light a fire in the fireplace. It’s such a great feeling to feel like the kid in the house a couple of weeks a year. And their place is huge so we don’t get in each others hair. It’s the perfect setup and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

So no sleep and still on my rosé back burner buzz I hop on the 6 am flight to NYC and doze off immediately. 8 hours later I’m in my favorite city in the world and more than ready for new endeavors.

Yesterday I crashed completely after sushi and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. This rock star was burned out after hectic travel arrangements and she replaced the high heels with comfy PJs.

Now it’s morning here in the West Village and I’m sitting on Café Gray Dog having my morning single shot, non-fat latte and getting ready for the first day of the rest of my life. The sun is out. I think it’s going to be a good one…

Here are a couple of pics from Copenhagen just before left the beautiful city:
