At my dinner table we were 8 persons eating, talking and laughing – sharing why we were here in Grey Hall celebrating our christmas together with more than 1000 people and talking about our personal life and our dreams and goals for the future.

 

At my table I came across 3 frenchmen  Glenn, Sonia and Lucas:

 

 

Lucas, Sonia and Glenn have all studied in Norway and Denmark –  2 months in  food industrial factories as student volunteers learning about the production and the companies strategies on ecology and sustainability.

 

-and now they are on holiday on their journey back to Rennes in France and chooses this wonderful adventure to celebrate christmas 2015 together with me, my friends and more than 1000 further here in Grey Hall, Freetown Christiania in quarter Christianshavn in Copenhagen.
