Day 15 - One last cup
On our last evening in this scandic trip, I sat in a small café in copenhagen tucked along a quiet street. The light was golden, the chatter soft, the air carrying that familiar blend of coffee and calm. Around me, strangers lingered without hurry—reading, talking, simplybeing.
There’s something about cafés here—their warmth isn’t just from the cups they serve, but from the pace they allow. Time feels slower, softer, as if it, too, pauses for one last sip.
Maybe that’s the gift of travel—it teaches you how to pause again. How to notice the steam rising from your cup, the kindness in a stranger’s smile, the bittersweet pull of leaving a place that feels quietly familiar.
As I looked out at the cobblestone street, I promised myself I’d return—not just to Copenhagen, but to this state of unhurried living. To the kind of peace that doesn’t need plans, only presence.
Some goodbyes don’t end in distance—they simply wait, in a corner café, for your return. This is one such good bye…. till we meet again !!!
