From Prague to Haderslev 30./31.1.08

Well, the long expected day has come! It´s Wednesday afternoon and me along with other two Czech girls Sylva and Katka are heading for adventure in an unknown country...What will the whole stay be like? Will we be enjoying our Erasmus stay as our schoolmates did in the previous years? What is Denmark like? And what about our new mates? These and many other questions are running through our minds...our feelings are a bit mixed, we are looking forward to new experiences, meeting new friends etc., but it is also a step into the unknown...
The bus journey is running without problems, after some 5 hours we´re changing the bus in Berlin to get to Kolding- a historical town just a few kilometres far away from our final destination! However, waiting for the bus in this small town seems to be endless, mainly because of the terrible biting cold. It´s about 6a.m. when we´re leaving Kolding for Haderslev...we´re lucky we´ve changed our money and have Danish crowns, because as we are told by the bus driver we can´t pay in euros...
Finally after 15 hours long travelling we can enjoy the "smell of Haderslev":-)...but what surprise, nobody is awaiting us at the bus station...this misunderstanding is, however, subsequently explained and after a while we can happily follow our buddy Thora who´s going to accommodate us...


Tak, dlouho ocekavany den je tu! Je streda odpoledne a spolecne s Katkou a Sylvou mirime za dobrodruzstvim do nezname zeme...Jaky bude cely pobyt? Uzijeme si ho stejne jako nasi spoluzaci v predeslych letech? Jake to je v Dansku? A jaci budou nasi spoluzaci? To a dalsi se nam honi hlavou...Nase pocity jsou vselijake, tesime se na nove zazitky, pratele, ale je to taky krok do neznama...
Cesta busem utece bez problemu, po 5 hodinach jizdy presedame v Berline a nabirame smer Kolding- historicke mesto, jen par kilometru od naseho cile! Cekani je ale v tomhle malem meste nekonecne, hlavne kvuli strasne zime. Je asi 6 rano, kdyz opoustime Kolding a vyrazime smer Haderslev...mame stesti, ze jsem si uz predem vymenily penize a mame danske koruny, protoze, jak nam rekl ridic, platit v eurech by neslo...
Konecne, po 15hodinovem cestovani poprve nasajeme "vuni Haderslevu":-)..ale jake to prekvapeni, na zastavce na nas nikdo neceka...toto nedorozumeni se ale vzapeti vysvetli a po chvili uz spokojene nasledujeme nasi "buddy" Thoru, ktera nas jde ubytovat...
