We were thrilled to end the day meeting the wonderful people from Vrads Sande Meditation Centre. After we all took some time to share our hopes and prayers for peace, they served us a delicious home cooked meal. We felt like we were with our family, and we were invited to finish by spending some quiet time in their meditation room. A perfect end to our first day in Denmark!

Vi mødte de sødeste folk ved meditations centret i Vrads Sande. Efter vi delte vores drømme og ønsker om fred, blev vi inviteret ind til et fantastisk hjemmelavet måltid.
