I think I’m in Love. With a big L. In love with New York. I once had a violent and volatile affair with London. It made me to who I am today; it left me pretty bruised and shattered, but more pleased, grown-up and cynical. Now New York has stolen my money, my health, my heart, my wallet and my toothpaste, and I feel happy about it.
I lost 4 credit cards so now I am living of 79 cents; its going pretty well so far, but by the end of the week I will have no friends left because they all have to buy me coffees constantly.
There is a Norwegian singer/song writer called Thomas Dybdahl. He sings this song called: ‘One Day you’ll Dance For Me New York City’. I think I like that to be true one day.
- Stine Bauer Dahlberg
- Washington, DC, United States
- I live in DC now. Big Important City. I didn't use to though, I was born in Oslo, grew up in Sweden and Norway, moved to Scotland for a while, then London, then Leeds. Restless some might say, I prefer adventurous and easily bored. So now I live in Foggy Bottom, quite near the Metro. I am an international student. That is such a great title! I am here at the George Washington University for a year and I wanted to write about it, hence the blog. I write about DC and me. And about America and me, how Im finding it and stuff. I also just write what is on my mind, and that is not always neither DC nor America, so that comes out too. Oh, and Im a politics student. I care about democracy, the EU, feminism, Jazz, Picasso, the Internet, typefaces, the Swedish Welfare State, and good red wine. In no particular order. I laugh at Monty Python and Eddie Izzard. I very rarely cry.
