I had my cell phone stolen there but I still heart CPH In November 2006 I furnished a flat for the very first time in my life and even hung up some pictures. After all, nesting is expected once you arrive at your final destination. And what a superb destination it is: Bohemian Berlin with its stiletto-eating pavements and the 1€ doner kebabs, the no dress code clubs and all night public transportation. Inhabited by wonderful people like BB who makes you sandwiches and AC who gets you drunk on Ricard in dodgy areas of the city.
However I was overly optimistic when I put nails into my living room wall to settle for good. One of my dumber alter egos decided that it's all going too well and therefore has accepted a job in Copenhagen.

Leaving the office at 5 p.m.
A surplus of attractive Scandinavian lads at my disposal
Christmas beer
