Dear Bridget Jones, I write to you again, as my London/Dating Diary continues, but this entry isn't about London at all. Rather it's about by *romantic* adventures abroad – my meet-cute experiences.

A Long Weekend in Copenhagen
After being in London for nearly three months, I took my first mini-break from the city.
