I stayed at Guldsmeden Axel Hotel. It has been very nice. Very comfortable, nice people, excellent breakfast. But I think every place in Copenhagen is wonderful. Danish people are the most civilized population in Europe. But they also know how to have fun! My best New Year's Eve! This town really makes me hope that a better world is possible!

Don't miss Christiania. Well that's it. Enough people said enough about that splendid city. Well, don't go in winter, I'd like to add.

Roskilde, Southeastern Denmark, Denmark
My very personal image of roskilde. I was going out of Kopanhagen via this town. And it happened to be during the days of the famous festival. It was raining cats and dogs (as usual) and I was the only person trying to get out the town to hitchhike, while rest of the crowd were coming in. I've go lost three times and got completly wet. Among all this huge herd of people no local to ask the direction. Finally after three hours past I did find and went away. Survived! As i said it's very personal image
