pride week

Hi folks!

Here comes my monthly post :)

I do try my best to post more often, but I either don't have the time or don't feel like it.

Let's see what has been going on the last couple of weeks...

Well, Javi came to visit two weekends ago. He was the guy I met in Aarhus at the intro-week and who was flirting with me all the time without me noticing. When I eventually did, it was too late and he had gone back to Spain.

He lives now in Barcelona and I promised at the time to visit him and take revenge, but the perfect timing never came. 2 years went by and he came to Scandinavia on a summertrip.

He stayed at my place for a weekend and it was great to see him again.

It's weird to be the guy showing the city around, rather than being "the tourist".

We have also gotten a new little friend :)

Luke, one of the brits we met last November at Masken and eventually went to Stockholm with for a weekend. He has moved to Copenhagen!

It is AWESOME to have him around. Finally someone who understands pop-music and shares my passion of gossip magazines :)

We have been introducing him to the danish life, which includes loads of bureaucracy, cheap shots, and slutty guys. Although I wouldn't say he jumped hearfirst into the last one. He is still adapting :)

Then last week was Pride Week. My first Pride ever - in Cph, Lisbon or anywhere else.

I was really excited, as there were all this events, parties, arrangements. The Town Square was turned into Pride Square for 5 days, with all the LGBT organizations represented, concerts, debats, etc... which actually I didn't experience that much.

Pride hit me hard on the weekend - the Parade on saturday was amazing. The biggest ever, according to numbers, the sun was shiny and it was hot for once that week, there was people at the streets waiting to see it all the way from Nørrebro to the Town Square.

At night we started at Code, some cosmos and gin-and-tonics, then headed to Studiestrædet, which was closed to traffic for the night and full of people drinking outside Masken and Chaca. It reminded me of Bairro Alto and of how much I miss Lisbon!

We ended up staying there for a long time, which meant we got very drunk very early... we were supposed to go to one of the many parties afterwards, but those Smirnoff Ice bottles kept appearing out of nowhere and people were soon drifting home.

As a true trouper I still managed to go to Rocco and meet my boyfriend and some other firends and shake my booty :)

I am SO looking forward to Pride 2009!!!

And then it was back to the hard life.

Specially now that I'm moving in with Kristian, it was been hectic!

Him moving in, then getting all the appliances, furniture, whatnot we need, now me moving in tonight.

It has been very tiring, but it will be so worth it once it's over!

And to lighten things up, there's another poolparty this weekend!! Woohoo!!
