I just finished a project for a US client who wanted to get in touch with living relatives in Denmark. It turned out that one of the living relatives is my best friend from school!
@KottalGenealogy@genealogy We had a similar experience a while back.A genealogist in the US asked us to locate a client‘s living relatives in the Dortmund area. All she had was two photos - one labeled „Coni mit Puppenwagen“ and another labeled „Hochzeit Karl und Heidi.“ Through a series of pretty lucky breaks, we found the living relatives still living 2 blocks from where my husband grew up. He and they had all gone to school together! It truly is a small world after all! 🌐😍

In Aalborg I learned about the witch rings. This fascinating phenomenon is associated with a great mystery and has given rise to many forms of superstition, especially about the dance of supernatural beings. Actually, witch rings are caused by the mycelium of the fungus, that is, the underground part of the fungus. The mycelium of some mushroom species extends from the center like a circle, so they form a nice ring in the soil. #nature#fungi#aalborg#denmark#memories
