• Tell us about your first bicycle or car?

I have never owned a car … and after driving my stepfather’s car and ending up in a server accident – I never wanted to get behind the wheel again, because if I don’t drive I can’t cause anyone harm. My mum got badly injured but recovered well.

Bikes I had many, but I can’t recall anything about my first bike, except I fall over far too many times and constantly bleeding. The last bike I bought in 2015 and it had passed 23 years since I was on a bike last time, so I was very nervous and wobbled for about 15 min. It’s red.

• What fictional world or place would you like to visit?

Downton Abbey, because I just love the setting … and the fashion.

• If you could have someone follow you around all the time, like a personal assistant, what would you have them do?

I don’t think I would like to have a PA, but I would like to have somebody to do the cleaning of my apartment twice per month. Strongly thinking about it.

• What did you appreciate or what made you smile this past week?

That I got a chance to visit my friend, Leif .. that has been struggling with lung cancer for 18 months. He passed away peacefully 3 days after my visit. So thankful for the hours I got with him and the Danish pastries we shared.

Leif was a silent hero in my book, he lived through his wife’s struggle with cancer … Inger left us in July 2016. And 6 months later he found out about his own.

The most wonderful and very special people … and they became a huge part of my mum’s life and it was through my mum they came into my life. Inger was like a second daughter to her.

He is a totally free spirit now, free from tubes and pain.  And as their son, Jonas said … See you in the future!!!! Both of you and mum too of course!

Leif, you will keep my heart warm forever!!!!
