Strøget during Christmas

Strøget during Christmas

During Christmas you can along the ornamented 'Strøget' find some stalls, selling candy and the like. Here, among other things, sugar coated roast almonds are sold.

Feeding time

Feeding time

Often during the summer you can encounter this charming and friendly guy, whose name is Bjørn, who feeds the swans, ducks and other feathered friends of Frederiksberg Garden.

Here Lives Princess Marlie - Frederiksberg Gardens

Here Lives Princess Marlie - Frederiksberg Gardens

When it's time for a child to loose the pacifier, some people wander out in the woods or in a park and leave it there. A small ritual which I believe only exist in Northern Europe. This is taken in Frederiksberg Gardens, Copenhagen.

Skaters

Ice skaters on the ice track by Kongens Nytorv (Central Square in Copenhagen by Nyhavn).

Massimo Fiorentino

Massimo Fiorentino has been a member since 27 November 2007 and goes by mfiorentino.

Currently in Copenhagen.

I live in Copenhagen, Denmark. I'm a technology freak, movie/music/photography/art nut and my interests range from the absurd to the mediocre. I'm currently studying hard to switch lives and become a movie director, believing that I have a few stories up my sleeve that I'd like to tell.
