Hi!

[Danielmellbin]

Hi all.
Im new here - but have already made alot of comments and a few posts.
So far its been fun and I look forward to more!

A few things about myself:
Im 26 years old and live in Copenhagen. I love a good debate! (drives my friends and occasional girlfriend mad ). My army career was short lived due to a shoulder injury i got while playing handball (european handball not the same as the states). But its fast, violent, fun and with lots of goals - so really you good folks from the other side of the pond should give it a go . Anyway during my short term in service I was stationed with the Royal Guard Hussars Regiment (the oldest regiment of hussars still in operations) 3rd Batalion (Armoured infantry - Recce). Now I study history at the University of Copenhagen, but I'm takin a "break" and going to Zimbabwe this fall to work as a Care worker with MS. My biggest interests are military history and politics.

Lookin forward to being here - cheers

Hey Daniel, welcome to the forum, nice to see more countries represented. {Too many Canucks, Aussies Americans already! }

Interesting to see someone from Copenhagen, did you know that we have a similar statue in Vancouver based on your "Little Mermaid"?

Lol - no - nice Actually our own little mermaid statue embarrases me at times (although it represents a very important piece of litterature and a great story). I mean - jeez - its the only national monument that most foreigners know about and its like 2 feet and has a factory backdrop Luckily lots of other stuff thats great here hehe.

I will be honest the first thing I had to see when I visited Copenhagen was the Little Mermaid statue.

I actually like Copenhagen.

Hehe - And to be honest - weren't you dissapointed? And yea - its one of my favorite cities along with Berlin, NY and Florence. All for VERY different reasons.

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

No I was not dissapointed. I try to take everything for what it is.

If we don't murmer too much then we understand each other fine. Reading each others language is "easy". (IMO anyway heh)
