Not from the US asks: 1, 4, 7, 24?
1)Favourite place in your country? Ooooh this is difficult! I tend to think about favourite places in terms of nature and landscapes — for that it’s probably a tie between the region I grew up (not very visually exciting, but it’s home) and the Baltic Sea. The beaches are beautiful with really fine sand and great scraggly trees along the shoreline. I used to love going on walks there thinking up stories as a child.
4)Favourite Dish specific for your country? We ate a lot of “traditionally German” food growing up — I really love the stews, even more now that we adapted them to be vegetarian. Favourite (side) dishes include: gelbe Bohnen, Spargel (white asparagus), Bratkartoffeln and more. My family also has an amazing dessert made from creme of wheat and beaten egg whites that we eat with homemade fruit compote. No matter how full everyone was, we’d always finish off the entire bowl.
7)Three words from your native language you like the most? Doch! …, oder? Abend — there are definitely more, but like… it’s a whole language. Hard to choose.
24)What other nation is joked about most often in your country? This is tricky! I think it really depends from region to region. Also, a lot of the “jokes” are really racist, so I don’t count them as jokes. You do hear a lot of comments about “The Americans”, though a lot of those are also really informed by a lack of background knowledge about the US.

Sweden’s suddenly cleared path to NATO membership casts the Baltic Sea region in a new strategic light. For the first time in modern history, every state in the region except Russia will be part of a single, close-knit military alliance, which has led some to giddily declare the Baltic Sea a NATO lake. Other than the fate of Ukraine itself, the creation of a powerful northeastern bloc in NATO is the most strategically significant fallout for Europe from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to go to war.
The Baltic region is also a crucible from which the answers to many of NATO’s most pressing questions could emerge. What does a coherent strategy for deterring Russia look like? How can the Baltic states best be defended? What capabilities are needed, and how will they be integrated across the alliance? The contributions of NATO’s newly unified Baltic bloc—the Nordics, the three Baltic states, Poland, and Germany—to European defense will be vital to the resilience of the alliance.
With NATO focused on supporting Ukraine and better securing the bloc’s eastern frontier, another vital effect of northeastern security cooperation is only now beginning to receive the attention it deserves. The region must urgently address two overlapping challenges: maritime infrastructure protection and energy security. Indeed, in addressing these vulnerabilities, the countries of the region could collectively strengthen security, become a laboratory for how to protect maritime infrastructure, and serve as a model for other regions to follow.
The Baltic Sea, just like the North Sea farther west, hosts a dense web of critical infrastructure links: ports and terminals, undersea pipelines, electricity transmission cables, and telecommunication cables. And their number is expected to grow: As the region completes a massive swing away from Russian energy, governments are expanding their liquefied natural gas (LNG) import infrastructure, building out offshore wind parks, and investing in new undersea power transmission lines. As the Baltic states accelerate their departure from the Russian power grid—a legacy from when they were annexed by the Soviet Union—they are making significant investments in power links with Europe. These and other investments will create an even denser network of critical infrastructure, particularly in an already crowded Baltic Sea.
Of course, Russia still maintains power projection capability, mainly through its naval, air, and missile bases in Kaliningrad—and unlike Russian land forces, these have not been gutted by the Kremlin’s war in Ukraine. The Russian Navy may be underfunded, but its underwater capabilities are growing in strength. Although the perpetrators have not been definitively determined, the underwater bombings of two Nord Stream pipelines near the Danish island of Bornholm in September 2022—as well as ongoing Russian threats and operations in the Baltic Sea and North Sea—have forced European governments to pay more attention to their highly vulnerable offshore energy and other infrastructure.
Accurately assessing threats to maritime energy and undersea communication infrastructure can be difficult. Adversaries could use submarines to deploy crewed or uncrewed submersibles, but attacks could also be launched from research vessels or even passing commercial ships. Also vulnerable to approach by sea are shoreline installations, such as LNG terminals. Landing stations for fiber-optic telecommunication cables are another possible target. What’s more, an adversary could easily employ civilian saboteurs to damage coastal infrastructure.
An attack need not be catastrophic—infrastructure networks usually have redundancies and extra capacity built in to compensate. Below the threshold of a blackout strike, however, infrastructure sabotage can be used by an adversary as a relatively easy and affordable way of sending a message or undermining a population’s sense of security. Sabotage could also prepare the ground for a broader attack. What makes sabotage attractive for an adversary is that attribution can be difficult, compounding the sense of insecurity and confusion. In January 2022, for instance, an undersea fiber-optic cable connecting a satellite ground station on the Norwegian island of Svalbard to the country’s mainland was severed, causing much speculation over Russian involvement. No conclusive evidence ever emerged. Meanwhile, NATO is certain that Russian spy ships have increased their efforts to map Europe’s critical maritime infrastructure.
Some of the larger countries in Europe are looking to step up their capacity to monitor, protect, and repair their undersea infrastructure. France has launched a new seabed warfare strategy and is investing in unmanned underwater vehicles, while Britain is creating a new Centre for Seabed Mapping and dedicating a multirole ocean surveillance ship to safeguarding infrastructure. Britain and Norway have also entered a security partnership to jointly protect their undersea infrastructure, a sign of London’s ambition to be a security provider in the region, including with regard to maritime energy and other infrastructure. (The two nations are major natural gas producers and have a network of pipelines crisscrossing the North Sea.) In the Baltic Sea, the Polish government is contemplating legislation that would permit the military to target ships attacking a key gas pipeline and establish a permanent coast guard base at the LNG terminal in the port of Swinoujscie. NATO already has a standing Maritime Group monitoring the North and Baltic seas and is conducting military exercises there. The Swedish submarine fleet will in future contribute greatly to NATO’s capabilities in the Baltic.
Most smaller European countries have only limited capacity to monitor and repair maritime infrastructure, even in their own waters. For all states, coordination remains a big challenge: Commercial owners and operators, militaries, coast guards, and other security services all have some responsibility in this field, as do policymakers and public administrators at various levels. While industry actors are often more aware of the immediate consequences of damaged energy or communication links, they rarely have access to comprehensive threat assessments compiled, if at all, by national governments. Then there is the issue of coordination across international borders. With so many actors involved, assembling a fully integrated operational picture of activity below and above water and developing contingency plans for responses to threats can be challenging, to say the least.
The Baltic Sea, with its shallow waters, low salinity, and many islands and archipelagoes, comes with some terrain-specific security challenges. Nevertheless, it is a useful testbed for how best to coordinate European responses to threats against critical maritime infrastructure. Both NATO and the European Union have turned their attention to shaping these responses and announced a new joint flagship initiative: the Task Force on Resilience of Critical Infrastructure. NATO-EU collaboration is a no-brainer here, since protecting critical maritime infrastructure requires merging military and civilian security measures. But both NATO and the EU will likely encounter obstacles working with so many different private actors and with sharing sensitive information about national infrastructure even among allies.
NATO can take the military lead. In recent months, it has ramped up patrols and naval exercises in the North Sea and Baltic Sea and established a new Maritime Centre for the Security of Critical Undersea Infrastructure within NATO’s Maritime Command. The bloc also wants to bring together national civilian, military, and industry stakeholders, doubling down on NATO’s role as a hub for sharing information and best practices. The alliance also plans to support members in identifying innovative technologies that can help secure critical undersea infrastructure. To underline the importance of all this, NATO leaders meeting in Vilnius, Lithuania, this week dedicated a whole paragraph of their official communique to the “real and … developing” threat to critical undersea infrastructure.
The EU updated its maritime strategy this year, stating its intention to ensure the resilience and protection of critical maritime infrastructure. A traditional starting point for the EU is to launch blocwide regulation, including a directive on critical infrastructure that entered into force this year. But the effectiveness of these measures depends on national capitals’ willingness to implement them effectively and quickly. The EU might get further if it is able to complement its regulatory stick with financial carrots, especially for smaller member states. Some of these states have asked for a dedicated section of the EU budget for public investments to protect critical infrastructure. The EU could also use its newly expanded tools on defense industrial funding to support member state investment in securing infrastructure.
Both organizations should also prepare for future threats to maritime infrastructure that may come not only from Russia. China, for instance, poses a different kind of security challenge as it buys and develops critical maritime infrastructure in Europe, from undersea communication cables to stakes in European ports. European governments have grown more alert to the potential risks of these investments in recent years, even as countries such as Germany continue to sign over infrastructure to Beijing. But officials tasked with tightening the investment review process complain that they do not yet have access to a clear map of who owns what in undersea and shoreline infrastructure.
In the years to come, the countries of the Baltic Sea region will be able to stress-test European responses to these challenges. Their efforts will likely yield valuable lessons for other operational theaters. These could include the Arctic, where melting ice could open up new sea routes for digital infrastructure. Partners of the West in the Indo-Pacific, facing similar hybrid threats to their critical maritime infrastructure, could learn from the European experience as well. Lessons from the region could also inform the EU’s plan to invest in a new undersea internet cable in the Black Sea designed to improve digital connections to Georgia, a candidate for EU membership, while reducing the country’s dependence on cables running through Russia.
The efforts to develop and implement a robust, shared approach to maritime infrastructure and energy security should include all countries in the Baltic Sea region, with the obvious exception of Russia. That may take some work, as these countries have not always seen eye to eye on security, especially in their assessment of Russia. Security in the northeastern bloc needs the buy-in of powerful Western European countries such as Germany. But the relationship between Berlin and Warsaw is increasingly deadlocked, preventing these two major countries from providing leadership in the region. Germany’s announcement that it will permanently station a military brigade in Lithuania, if it can be implemented quickly, could go some way to rebuild the trust lost by Berlin through its many years of Russia-friendly policies. The Polish elections in the fall, if they bring a change in government, might relax Warsaw’s relationship with the rest of Europe. A more strategic approach to regional security, however, will rely in large part on the military experience and innovation capacity of the smaller, nimbler Nordic and Baltic countries.
If NATO’s Baltic Sea members can build on Finnish and Swedish accession to the alliance, use all the tools at their disposal, and pursue a more coordinated, pragmatic approach to critical infrastructure security, they will reduce one of Europe’s greatest vulnerabilities exposed by Putin’s war on Ukraine. If NATO’s new northeastern bloc fails to achieve this despite a clear common threat and interest, there is little hope that the alliance can succeed elsewhere.

The Ancient Forests and White Cliffs of Jasmund
Germany’s smallest national park occupies a distant corner of Rügen, an island in the Baltic Sea. Within this diminutive parcel, however, stands primeval beech forests with trees that are descendent of ice-age survivors. Where the forest nears the sea, the trees cling to precipitous white chalk cliffs that have captivated modern vacationers and Romantic painters alike.
This image of Jasmund National Park and Rügen’s Jasmund Peninsula was captured on June 11, 2023, by the Operational Land Imager-2 (OLI-2) on Landsat 9. Jasmund’s expanse of dark green forest stands in contrast to the lighter, geometric patterns of agricultural land, as well as the bright white patches of a chalk quarry and processing facility. The operation seen here is one of the few remaining active quarries on the island. Some abandoned quarries have naturally recolonized into biodiverse microhabitats, while others have been converted into water reservoirs or waste disposal sites.
In 2011, the European beech forest within Jasmund National Park was designated one of UNESCO’s ancient and primeval beech forests. This UNESCO network is made up of 94 sites in 18 European countries.
The European beech (Fagus sylvatica) has persisted across millennia in a range of climates. Since the end of the last ice age, beech forests spread northward across the European continent from isolated refugia in the Alps, Carpathians, and other more-southern locales. The trees played a crucial role in reforestation after the glaciers retreated.
The forests continue to evolve in response to a changing climate. An analysis of tree rings from thousands of beeches in Europe revealed that, across much of the continent, the growth rate of beech trees has declined over the past 60 years. The exception was at northern latitudes, where growth rates have risen by as much as 20 percent. In some locations—such as coastal regions in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and the British Isles—trees grew two to three times faster than in southern Europe. Modeling of forest growth under different climate scenarios shows favorable habitat continuing to shift northward and forest productivity decreasing considerably across central and southern Europe.
Tumblr media
The forests of the Jasmund Peninsula end abruptly atop tall, bright white cliffs that plunge down to the sea. Stretching more than 8 kilometers (5 miles), Jasmund’s stunning chalk-cliff shoreline is a lesser-known relative of the White Cliffs of Dover. Both are made up of soft, porous limestone from the same rock unit.
Just as the forests evolve, the chalk cliffs also change in response to their environment. The soft white rock is prone to erosion, and the cliffs retreat tens of centimeters every year, often breaking away in large chunks. And they do not go quietly. Scientists have used seismic signals from the rocks crashing onto the beach to better understand why the cliffs fail when they do. After looking at data from 81 cliff failures over two years, they found that the events are linked to the presence of water, either following rainfall, at night when air moisture condenses, or in winter months when trees are not drawing water from the soil.

Wannsee
Julia Knobloch
Sheep clouds and sandy light, white sails and motor boats
This summer escape was built in 1907
for the working class of Berlin, who could not afford the Baltic Sea
Then and now a crowded beach
young women posing in deck chairs
Pine cones, yellow flowers
soda fizzing red and green in leafy shadows
One afternoon we plowed, arms hooked, through shallow water
the ferry to Peacock Island in the distance
reed grass rustling in the sudden silence
That’s how you find a drowned body
the lifeguard explained
by marching as one long chain of humans
The loudspeaker blared
and I thought of the cheery post-war tune
sung by an eight-year old, “The Little Cornelia,”
about children riding their bikes out to Wannsee
underneath a canopy of pines and patches of blue sky
The song didn’t exist in 1942, neither did little Cornelia
and it was January
the beach across the lake closed for the season
but the view and shoreline were the same —
Did any of them let their mind wander to the summer ahead
to riding their bikes through the forest
running into the cool, soft Wannsee
lifting their daughter up into the air, water dripping from her blond curls?

The documents that are required to get married are Denmark are fewer than other countries making it the easiest country to get married in Europe.
If you are a widow or widower, you must have an original death certificate legalised to with accordance to the Hague Convention.
All documents need to be in either English, German, or Danish.
That is all, no birth certificates and no martial status.. for the vast majority of our couples the documents you need to get married in Denmark are already to hand, making the time of first contact to the date of application a matter of days!
Making it even quicker to be able to see the wonderful registrars face as you go to get married!
Tumblr media

Quick timescales..
We are the quickest, most responsive and effective agency there, and we are not simply saying that to grab attention, we are and we will move heaven and earth to stick to your timescales.. We listen to YOUR story and understand YOUR situation.. Allowing you to marry in as little as 2 weeks from application, so you can enjoy your day with no stress..
Since the reform in the Danish government in January 2019, the process is simple and easy. There are no grey areas at to the documents that you need, all the applications are managed by a central government agency so it’s easy to see where you are in the application process. Once approved your ‘permission to marry’ is sent electronically to the town hall where you will be marrying and then you can book your appointment. Granted if you are applying directly the channels of communication may not be a clear, and it is advisable to choose a reliable wedding planner to help you with the process.
Tumblr media
Stress free wedding in Denmark
Denmark is a progressive thinking country..
Denmark is well known for it’s liberal thinking, it was the 12th country in the world to make same sex marriages legal. Championing the thinking of equality for all.
It has become one of the easiest places to marry in the world allowing for International couples to marry with an uncomplicated list of documents needed to marry. The ceremonies are non religious, yet fully legal.
Tumblr media
Denmark was one of the first countries to allow same sex marriage
It is a beautiful country..
Denmark itself is a stunning country you have almost every landscape that you can wish for apart from mountains the highest point of land in Denmark is only 171metres high! The coastline is amazing and the beaches are straight from a dramatic movie. The country is made up of 406 islands the majority are uninhibited.
Copenhagen, and all the cities are cool, cosmopolitan, environmentally friendly and have historic tales from monuments that lead to great dinner table stories.
The smaller towns are stunning with often multi-coloured buildings still living their ancestory of fishing and crafts whilst remaining ‘cool’ and cultured.
Denmark still has 18 working lighthouses, these are all very important as except for the island of Bornholm, Denmark is located at the transition between North Sea and Baltic Sea which includes the Skagerrak and Kattegat waters. Dangerous seas for the ships and boats that pass the shoreline frequently.
When thinking of where to choose to marry in Denmark please see the blog Town Halls In Denmark Which one is Right for you. Some are city, some are coastal, some are on islands the choice is vast and you can have great fun choosing which one you want!
Tumblr media
Town Hall weddings in Denmark are near stunning UNESCO sites
The Danes are wonderful..
Everytime we hear from our couples after they have been married they say “it was so beautiful” and “everyone was so lovely and helpful”. These comments always make our hearts jump. Getting married is nerve wracking, getting married abroad can be even more nerve wracking. You are going to a foreign country, for a lot of people it’s their first time in Denmark, not a lot of couples speak Danish so they will find themselves asking a lot of questions. The Danish are always so helpful, see this blog from “Study in Denmark” that help explains the way of thinking of the Danes. And always think of Hygge.
The History of the country..
Denmarks first writings are in 500ad, that is a long time ago and the history surrounding the country can be seen everywhere. Of course you have the Viking era that started in the 9th Centrury and can be seen in towns now such as Aarhus, a walled city that has the most incredible Viking museum! In the early 10th Century the Kingdom of Denmark was created and along with that came the castles and amazing sites that are now heritage sites. There is so much history, and can be read about here.
Location…
Denmark is situated between Sweden and Germany. Kastrup Airport which is just outside of the city centre is a major hub that accommodates long haul from all over the world and low cost airlines from all over Europe. It welcomes flights for 20 hours in every 24 hour period. In 2019 it hosted 33 million passengers. Denmark is part of mainland Europe and there are international rail routes which link Denmark to all of Northern Europe and Germany.
Eco Friendly..
Denmark has forever been committed to sustainability and being green and although Copenhagen, the countires capital is slowly becoming one of the worlds most innovative city with regards to being eco friendly, the rest of the country is also equally as committed. Naturkraft, they are so committed that in June of 2020 they are openning the worlds first sustainable theme park called A theme park dedicated to the powers of nature is set to open on 50 hectares of former seabed right next to the city of Ringkøbing in West Jutland. Reportedly the world’s first such theme park, Naturkraft seeks to instil in its visitors a greater awareness and appreciation of the powers of nature — and encourage sustainable living.
There are so many wonderful reasons to marry in Denmark, from the romantic notions of the country to the practicalities of getting there, moving around once there, to the sensible reasons of quick stress free documents for your wedding!

There's a few more things to note the river issue is heating up as we speak because they figured out that the cone is empty and most of the stuff is gone and most of the people are gone as a matter of fact I can see the buildings coming out and they are starting to rip things out of the shoreline and leave and it is going to cause a problem and it will push the muck and skeletons out of the two rivers we predicted because we see it happening it's about a hundred miles south of the southern tip of the cone is this business and in moments it will be 200 it's about 400 miles total to the wall they're both rivers are each 400 MI and it is expanding and it's going downriver and it's about 200 and it is going a little faster my cell phone I think yes and the whole river area now is embroiled and there's nothing in between but each side about 5 to 10 miles out and there is fierce fighting right now.
-the clones are being sought globally. They are being hunted down and wherever they are they're being pulled in if more luck go after them people grab both and the warlock are in trouble but they're going to be allowed to go in first and groups are forming up still all over the world and warlock are pouring into those areas since the other armies for me and we suspect it's going to be enormous possibly 2% each hemisphere including the islands no but there for me too probably 2% each island and that is a lot they will be almost out if they lose and more are coming
-in moments they will begin we predict you can see them getting their stuff together in the warlock are calling more and more and telling them to keep screaming and push them out and follow us down and they're going to do that momentarily and the leaders are getting ready to leave to go out there believe it or not and to leave Charlotte county and they'll tow a bunch of people with them. This is a gigantic effort and the gathering Intel rapidly and they're getting it from warlock who are staying behind as a matter of fact the max are pulling them out now of Charlotte county and they won't be coming back they're going to be put to death and incinerated they don't want any witnesses. We are moving in and taking over areas here we're not going to let them back in either they're fools. It's a very big army that is leaving Florida and it is the morlock Mac Army they're exiting believe it or not and coming down and some foreigners and are coming down in minority morlock mostly are filling in and we are too and the max are not coming down in numbers and thusly are playing a game here. We see that they are going to attack and we see the depressed we also see that the ships in the Northern areas are getting ready to launch and they're running through their final checklist. And they are starting their engines and revving them and they're going through a testing phase and they are breaking loose the ships tonight this morning right now that would be a Hudson Bay and there's two there and the bearing Sea wonder how to believe that that's all water out they put up a wall and that's why everybody is amassing they see the ball and they know what it means there's also another ship in the Baltic region and that's up north and that is north of Russia there's another area they're launching from it is to the east of Nova Scotia in between Greenland and Nova Scotia and the water is not so deep there to the east of Greenland between Iceland and Greenland to the north and just north of Norway Denmark and Sweden they also have an indicator that says there might be shifts leaving from Greenland below the ice there are several more north of Russia hundreds of medium size ships in the North country and a very big one in Canada huge it is the largest in launching and there are several in Russia but not the huge one ready to come out and they need the force now there are also 1500 small ships from each of the two continents that are going to come out shortly this morning and today they're all going to launch.
And more shortly
Lobo and Proxima Midnight
We are all announcing it now it is happening right now and they're coming out in moments

About the "Five European Seas Initiative" ,the best and most innovative restoration techniques.
Off the coast of Europe, the ecosystems of the Baltic, Black, Caspian, Mediterranean and the North-East Atlantic Seas also need restorative action. Over-fishing, invasive species, rising sea levels and other forces are threatening many of these ecosystems. The forthcoming Five European Seas Initiative will work at addressing these issues. It will work at improving the management of Marine Protected areas (MPAs) and establishing new MPAs, while promoting the best and most innovative restoration techniques. The programme will engage across coastal countries to ensure a holistic approach on behalf of marine species, who know no borders and often migrate over long distances. One technique the initiative is considering is the restoration of oyster reefs, which protect vulnerable developed shorelines from large waves that cause erosion and – unlike artificial barriers – grow upwards as sea levels rise, providing long-term coastal protection. 
Tumblr media
The twelve Three Seas countries cover 29 per cent of the European Union's territory (1,210,000 km²), are home to 25% of the European Union's inhabitants (110 million), and produce €2.3 trillion or one seventh of the EU's GDP (nominal).

About Tasman Sea, facts and maps
Tumblr media
The sea was named for the Dutch navigator Abel Tasman, who navigated it in 1642. Its New Zealand and Australian shorelines were explored in the 1770s by the British mariner Captain James Cook and others. With maximum depth exceeding 17,000 feet (5,200 m), the seafloor's most distinctive feature is the Tasman Basin. Yes, the Tasman Sea is part of the South Pacific Ocean. It is what is termed a marginal sea, meaning it is a simply division of an ocean. It is bounded to the west by Australia, the east by New Zealand, and the north by the Coral Sea. The basin countries for the Sea are Australia and New Zealand, with several major cities lying on the Tasman Sea's coast. The region is primarily shaped by the Tasman's underwater mid-ocean ridge that formed 85 – 55 million years ago.

The Tasman Sea is a difficult and dangerous sea for sailors. Known as “the Ditch”, the Tasman Sea is notorious for being unpredictable and prone to storms. Many people have lost their lives making the crossing and ships have disappeared completely, leaving no trace. It is regarded by many sailors as being one of the most dangerous stretches of water in the world. Unlike many other bodies of water, wind and wave conditions on the Tasman Sea are rough for most of the year as the currents of the Southern Ocean collide with those of the Pacific. The Tasman Sea is 2,250 km (1,400 mi) wide and has an area of 2,300,000 km2 (890,000 sq mi). The maximum depth of the sea is 5,943 m (19,498 ft). The sea water on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia - from which Tasman Sea Salt is harvested - is of the highest quality, meaning that the salt does not need to be cleaned or rinsed during the production process.
