Beach Life in Charlottenlund, Denmark

I have been very fortunate with the weather so far, although I'm starting to feel fall coming as of yesterday when the winds, surprise bursts of rain, and lower temperatures hit Charlottenlund.

Here are a few impressions from my days spent at Charlottenlund Beach and the Sobad. I go there on foot from my home exchange flat/apartment, which is only about a 20 minute walk and I even get to pass through the woods.

I swim in the sea, I eat a snack sometimes and play solitary (cards) while drinking "take-away" coffee. I get sunburned as if I was a teenager again; I walk on the beach and look for things to collect. If I am feeling really beside myself, I'll take a nap in the shadow under my towel.

This is what life has been about for the past week and I can't complain. Love, Sharon

My Photo in Overland Journal!

Ok, so this doesn't make me famous or isn't a turning point, but I am elated to have a photograph of mine published in the winter 2010 issue of Overland Journal magazine.


Caption: We met a brother and sister on the beach during our Belize '06 trip, and they wanted to use our snorkel mask and fins. They were like fish themselves reaching into the water pulling out jellyfish and starfish.

Everytime I'm at a beach, I'm reminded of how the world feels so big and so small at the same time. But bumping into these children and reconnecting with these memories makes me feel the world can also feel just the right size for all of us. Xo, Sharon Marzonie
