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

Mosaic of Dusk

Dusk is very simply like handmade taffy: each batch is a different flavor with unique pastel swirls and reversed texture. Dusk purrs quietly in the slumbering sky as we play hide-n-seek or a game of tag among the mosquitoes and lightening bugs, and allowing it to brighten our summer tans for one last second.And it has roots running below my little neighborhood, like a dark twin to the underground with our parents holding the string end so we (our gang) would not disappear into oblivion. Where like an underground tram after one stop, I have to go above ground to feel the sky again, and for this reason, this is where my introspective journey always begins: at my favorite time of day. I say that sincerely. ~Sharon Marzonie
