Introduction - Autobiography The little girl is called Lise. She was born in 1905. Her life became very dramatic due to the rapid development in Europe during the 20th century.
I was born in Denmark in 1905. My life story begins on the famous Skagen beach. I remember I was standing there watching the other children play in the water. They seemed to have a lot of fun. I would have done anything to be part of this, but I knew that I couldn’t . . .
Miguel meets Tina in Setúbal. She is on vacation. Afterwards they exchange e-mails and he is invited to come to Denmark ....
Chapter 1 (Denmark)
Tina was late. She got up late, and she’d just been rushing through the day. Everything had to be perfect so Miguel could feel welcome in Denmark. She had used all day, cleaning and making her small flat a very nice place to be in.
Nothing worked for her today, maybe it was because she was so excited about finally meeting Miguel. ………….
