I spent some time in France too, actually. One of my brothers is living in Paris so I spent a couple weeks there but he was busy with work for most of the time I was there, so I spent a lot of time at photography galleries.
Oh, that sounds great! You went to Montmartre, right? Some of the best galleries are there... It's obvious you'd go here. Used the time on your hands to work on your french, I guess? Damn, you should have told me you were here, we stayed in Paris for two days, but we could've met up somewhere if it was while you were here.
Oh, lovely, really. Spent two weeks in the South of France before heading back to Denmark. It was... Nice overall. How about you? Got the change to snap a lot of pictures?
Excuse ME. It is exactly because they don’t have power that it is worse. The whole concept of rolling in riches just because you happened to be born in a certain family is sick. I mean suppose you were some kind of a prince, what would be claim to fame? That you were BORN? Really?
I think I'd just... If this were me I wouldn't really get why either. But it'd be my duty to my country. It's not all about being rich. It's about being an exemple, someone to keep the history alive. A face for the country, who wouldn't change constantly as the politicians would. But I'd... I'd just want to be normal. I think the title would be more of a pain than anything.
Oh, well, not that much to be honest. I'm pretty organized, and I knew this was coming, so school work is the farthest from my biggest problem right now.

Yes, I do. In fact, it depends of which country we're talking about, but in some parts of Europe, royalty is part of the history, and even though most countries don't have a royalty anymore, the royal families in the ones who do are respected and wanted. It's not as if they had much power anyways, it's more of a thing for the image of the country nowadays.
Oh, don't say that! Your pictures are usually amazing, I don't see why these wouldn't have been. But well, you'll make others, and no one will ruin these, I'm sure of it.
I'm perfectly aware of this. If I ever make a mistake in English, feel free to correct me, I'm sure it'd end up being useful
Oh, thank you. That'd be great. I'll just finish what I'm reading right now, and probably come back to ask you again. And this statement is not all that true, but then, it's an interesting thing to think about.
Yeah, you’re right. I shouldn’t be complaining. Disappearing books? That doesn’t sound good. You should be on the look out for those. And I’ve been great, actually. Happy to be back, despite all the work. Still getting settled, but it’s a process.
Yes, yes, I am. As some of these are first editions, I'd really like to get them back. That's great anyways. I think most of us are happy to be back. Or maybe I'm just hoping too much. But the meetings are going to start again and well, it will be fun. If none of us die while being on drugs, that is.
