I\\u2019m looking out the window as I record, and it\\u2019s snowing again. It\\u2019s pretty, but it\\u2019s not a novelty any more. It\\u2019s been like this for the past couple of weeks, Danish winter weather. Nearly every day there\\u2019s fresh snow and ice.

When I wake up on winter mornings, it\\u2019s still dark, and cold, and I can hear the wind whistling outside my window.\\xa0 Every day I think, ahhhh, I don\\u2019t want to get up.\\xa0 But I do.

Of course everyone in Denmark suffers a little bit during the winter.\\xa0 But I feel particularly bad for people I can see come from warmer climates, and are experiencing one of their first winters here.\\xa0
