      ODENSE THE FAIRYTALE TOWN.   Odense has been a cultural centre since Medieval times and in 1772 its local newspaper (still published today) Fyens Stiftstidende was published for the first time.     Only a few years later, Odense became the first prov…

  Si hay una ciudad en el mundo donde los cuentos parecen cobrar vida, esa es Odense, la principal urbe de la Isla de Fionia y la tercera en número de habitantes de toda Dinamarca. Nuestro campo base fionés fue el lugar de nacimiento de Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875), quien escribió u…

So we are done being wandering hobos.  Thank goodness.  This is the last time we will be staying in places less than 4 days, its just too time consuming moving around so much, not to mention totally exhausting. We had a really great time in Slovakia, although backwoods is definately the …
