TUSINDSMIL

Velkommen til vores elektroniske dagbog paa rejse ud i verden. Vi er et dansk par, der i 2007 flyttede fra Aalborg til Basel i Schweiz og videre over Atlanten til USA i 2010. Vi bruger bloggen som elektronisk dagbog til at dokumentere vores dagligdags oplevelser, og du er velkommen til at være med! If you are here due to a random google search, you might find this somewhat confusing since it is in a foreign language. Please hang around - we hope the pictures tells our story. Welcome!

Thank you for not smoking

During our visit in Denmark this Christmas, it was an absolute joy to be in restaurants, cafes and other public places, where smoking is prohibited. As of end 2007 you can come home from an enjoyable night without your clothes smelling like you’ve spend the night in a chimney, eyes red and swollen.
We heard on the news that France is attempting to push the same ban and we are hoping for it to happen in Switzerland too. Unfortunately, the Swiss people are ten years behind on this subject. Smoking is still seen as a fashion accessory and we fear that a ban of public smoking will never happen.
In advance we thank you for not smoking. Enjoy a smoke-free weekend.
