I was initially talking to Jacob whom I hosted before back when he was traveling in Japan months before but I found out he was living 3 hours away from Copenhagen over at Aarhus.

I was surprised to see Vanessa riding a suitcase. Turns out that she injured herself playing badminton and quickly came up with the genius idea to use an AirWheel so she could still come to the Europe trip and not be a burden. My mom had whipped up an amazing carbonara and parmesan chicken which was an amazing dish, considering that I only ever had 3 pieces of bananas the whole day.
