A good friend of mine has let me have a lot of photos from the celebration of the liberation in Copenhagen after five years of German occupation. She herself was 10 months old and is taken around in a white pram or baby carriage with her six-year older brother close to where they lived in Amager, an island in connection […]
Running a Half Marathon in Dresden I wanted to see as many cultural sights as possible at the trip as well as finding WW II
