Hi Alison, I live in the center of Copenhagen right next to the central station, which is like 30 kms away from Roskilde...If you need a place to stay in the center of Copenhagen sometime during your stay I have room for a couple of people in my appartment. I thought that it might be interesting to try to bring together the Danish ski-scene for a fundraiser party during the COP15, but I don't know if it's possible with such short notice...
Thanks for the notes Brent and Martin!! Good beer for sure here.
Martin- we have yet to solidify the party. Would love to meet you!! Most likely it will be in Ågerup, which is near Roskilde. Where are you located?
keep sluggin! the good news is I bet Belgium is the opposite end of spectrum from Penn. for good beer availability...
Brent
What a cool project! Read about it on www.skiinfo.com. Would be interesting to hear more about the Save Our Snow fundraising party in Copenhagen, since I live in Copenhagen.
Best of luck!
Martin.
