Funny experience
1) One morning, when I sit in the kitchen and eat yoghurt for breakfast, my host mom was in the kitchen too, and she wants some water. She turns on the water tap and then the water tap falls off. My host mom starts screaming and there was water everywhere in the kitchen. I can´t stop laughing and I try to help cleaning the kitchen. We could have made a funny home movie ! Just a normal morning in 29th Ave W with a funny moment :)
2) When we speak Danish to each other, people turn around and look at us. In USA it is common to small-talk. People ask: "Do you speak German?" or "Do you speak French?." We say: "No, we speak danish." and then we have to add that we come from Denmark. They smile and they look like a question. Many people in USA have no idea where Denmark is. We say kindly: "Denmark is a little country in Europe." They say: "Wow Europe" and start asking question.
3) One morning I want to taste the popular little pancake (many people in USA eat for breakfast). It was frozen and I put it in the microwave and give it 2 minutes. After 2 minutes I open the microwave and I see a black pancake and in the whole house it smells awfully. I conclude that in Denmark we use the microwave, if we want to warm something, but in USA they cook in the microwave.
