"Hej!
Or Mojn!" Remember learning to eat sandwiches with a fork and
knife? Remember trying to say "rød grød med fløde"
while all the Danes laughed? Remember how great it tasted? Remember
that tacky joke we told about the "jomfru"? Remember drinking
coffee from a tea cup and drinking tea from a coffee mug? Remember
eating "lakrids"?
We remember
all this and much more. We have signed up to be the Class Contacts
and together we have been working very hard finding and contacting
more of us who lived that year in the most beautiful country!
We have been in touch with many of you and have enjoyed our times
reminiscing with you. Stay in touch! We are still looking for
many others, so we hope to hear from you and hear about what you
remember! |

Jennifer Burke, Aníbal Blanco and Bonnie
Jean Mackay in Padborg.
Maybe
you might even remember one of us? Susan Cook (aka Soo)...maiden
name Sue Stenger... was originally from Michigan, but now lives
in Texas. AnÃbal Blanco was one of two YFU students from South
America that year. AnÃbal was originally from Resistencia, Chaco
and currently lives in Bariloche, RÃo Negro in Argentina. Our
year in Danmark was one of the BEST years of our lives! We treasure
our experiences, friendships, and memories. Soo finally had the
opportunity to go back to Denmark in the summer of 1998! It felt
like a DREAM... seeing her host family, neighbors, and old friends
for the first time after so many years!! She didn't want to leave!!!
Unfortunately, AnÃbal has not yet been able to return, but stays
in contact with his host families.
Our ultimate dream is to have a reunion in Denmark. One of our
group
still lives in DK today! Until then maybe some of us could get
together somewhere in the US? What do you think? Let us know!
It's been fun getting to find out where our lives have taken us.
In our group we have a pastor, a pilot, an actor, a teacher, a
librarian, a nuclear engineer, a salesman, moms and dads, and
much more! What are you doing now? How has your experience in
Denmark influenced your life choices? |
