Christiana - Copenhagen

[ilikecheetoes]

anybody ever been? Supposedly a slightly sketchy openair pot/hash market. Im going to be in cpg this summer and it would be nice to get some hash there. I assume its all shipped in? I saw a few pics and the flowers looked mids at best. Big chunks of hash though. Is there a big grow movement there? have to be indoor i suppose.

I like pickles

Been there, but things change in Christiania pretty quick. Last I heard you can still get decent weed. Don't be so fussy. Respect the places' history and uniqueness. You want variety and quality? Go to Denver.

Are you so spoiled that you are going to whine about how much better the weed is at home? If so, skip Christiania, keester a zip and go see the Little Mermaid.

There has been a lot of talk about shutting it down. It has not happened yet. For a long time it was one of two places in the EU you could regularly get weed and hash. So don't be a total dick if the quality isn't up to your current standards. That would make you look so....... American.

Scandinavia is expensive
Denmark is not a producing country
Get ready to pay top prices for average smoke.

Personally I'd keep my expectation low (for weed, hash) and enjoy everything else about the place.

Danish women can be quite amazing - if you like tall Amazonian types.

 

[Unclebaldrick]

I wouldn't call them amazons. Tall, yes, but I am a giant among men. I find their progressive morals and loose concept of marriage rather refreshing. Plus, all that licorice makes their breath fresh. Yup, everybody hates them leggy blondes.

It's not as relaxed there as it was many years ago. It used to be a hippy town. I've got Danish friends here. You will be able to buy quite easily there I'd imagine and especially if you know people.

im expecting expensive. Ill be bringing wax with me but wanted to pickup something while there in case I have to make a panic dump in the airport or something

I obviously dont know anybody there. Im wondering if its like the Amsterdam of a few years ago where its out and open and I can buy it. Im not looking to sketch out down backalleys following a hippie for some weed. Most posts seem to make it out to be a open market.

Not all americans are rude, loud idiots when abroad. Thanks for the tip though... not sure where the vent came from. I simply asked a question. Oh and the little mermaid is on the list...

 

[Unclebaldrick]

Any sort of chaos or rebellion has long ago been squeezed out of the place - aside from the weed on pusher street. It is a tourist trap with weed (which makes it better than most tourist traps). The nice thing about it is that it gives you a chance to stock up before Sweden. Sweden is a desert for all drugs.

 

[ilikecheetoes]

Cool well Ill be giving it a shot Probably going to tivoli gardens as well.
Im going to the IceBar in sweden. Should be fun for a drink and to check off the list of "done this".

this is one damn expensive trip though. ouch.

No, not ALL Americans. Just most - but we're getting better. And now that the Chinese are traveling, we look even better in comparison.

Sorry, Americans abroad have made me very, very sad in the past. Mostly because most of us are ignorant slobs but also because more than 40% of us actually voted for Mitt Romney. Mitt fucking Romney! IDK, there was something about the quality concerns over what you were going to find there made me worry. Figured you might be one of those young, spoiled twats that have not lived long enough to understand the struggle for Mary Jane. (I still suspect that you are BTW.) behave yourself.

Ps, the mermaid is tiny and there are about 100 old women between you and it. Go get some sushi instead, fucking Danes have great sushi ($$$$$$$$!) Or go grab a Tuborg and sit on the waterside.

Don't miss the Vasa.

I would skip Tivoli too.

 

[ilikecheetoes]

my favorite is sitting in a swiss restaurant with some family from ohio nearby. I could hear her complaining that the bread was stale and hard. This was good homemade swiss bread with thick crust and soft middle. pretty bad.
as to mitt vs obozo. i would have taken mitt in a minute. but theres a whole forum section for that type talk. Lets keep it civil and stoney over here man

You're gonna love Tivoli.

Liked your aunt story. My favorite is sitting in a bar a Stone's throw from Anne Frank's house hearing about how America's marijuana policies were "just like the Nazis". We had words.

Arriving in Stockholm airport a few years ago to find sniffer dogs running all over the luggage belts was my worst airport experience. The officials look hardcore and the dogs, uh well trained! Denmark should be fine but Sweden is not going to be easy.

Good point. I figured they would take the bridge. Do not carry into the airport!

.

I tend to gloss over advice that recommends shoving anything up my ass

 

[ilikecheetoes]

ill be on a cruise ship. Im leaving out of sweden so I dont really care. Ill smoke my last on the ship before heading to the airport.

Hey dont be so tuff on keestering. Its an excellent way to transport. And fun too.

 

[Unclebaldrick]

ill be on a cruise ship.

Enjoy Tivoli. Betcha the ship has an excursion of people hitting Christiania. I sad now.

 

[ilikecheetoes]

lol the ship has an excursion for everything. You know how much they want per person for that? $500.
yea seriously.... Ill grab a taxi.. Actually it looks like my hotel is only a couple miles from christiania so Ill probably walk.

my excursion in st petersburg is costing $950 per person. private car and driver for 2 days. If I booked it through the cruise it would be $1350 per person and is on a tour bus with all the riff-raff.

How much hash to you get? Might be a good deal.

Seriously though, I think you might find some good hash. That place has been doing more or less continuous biz for decades. Somebody there probably has some old school hash connect. I miss traditional hash a lot. It had terroir.
