Iraqi Money, 4 Countries in 1 Month

London, UK

5th June 2005

Anja and I had a great time in Germany and Denmark last week. It's much nicer when you're on holiday and you don't have to work or go to random government agencies to get visas and permission for everything.

I really love Denmark in the summer time. We went to a few restaurants there and a beach on the Baltic Sea. It's really interesting to hear the way the Danish speak. The language looks quite odd on paper but is sounds really nice when heard. They have a few letters that are unique to their alphabet which really makes the words standout and gives them a different feel.

I was wondering around Covent Garden last week when I saw some Iraqi money for sale. I attached a few images of the notes I bought.

I'm trying to learn how to speak in French. I'm off to Paris in a week and a half. I got a really cheap ticket on the Eurostar because I booked 3 months in advance. This will be my 4th trip to Paris. The city seems to be a little different each time I visit for some reason. That being said, I see new things in London every day.

I've started a new blog called http://dream-startup.marksblogg.com/. It's a compilation of things I would do if I ran my own company. Hopefully you'll find it interesting and informative.
