Am I lost?

🇺🇸 Written in English

Hand-drawn map with buildings and paths.

Now it’s quarter to one. At quarter past two, in an hour and a half, my friend invites me to the bakery. But where is the nearest bakery? I’m hungry! Luckily I have a roadmap on my phone. Uhhmm, I think I should walk around the lake and then cross the bridge.

This food is too good!

🇺🇸 Written in English

Bear at a table full of food.

I’m a little bear, but I’m always hungry. My favorite dish is Brussels sprouts with applesauce and potatoes or fries. Oh, that makes me hungry! I also prefer a tall glass of sparkling water with lemonade. Unfortunately, this is not the season for this food.

It’s twenty-three kilometers from my apartment. But I don’t walk fast because I’m a little bit tired, so the walk takes about three hours. The things I have to buy are four pants and six shirts. I prefer blue pants and white shirts.

Languages I speak

🇺🇸 Written in English

Five bears holding signs in different languages.

Learning foreign languages is my favorite activity. It is really fascinating to communicate fluently in foreign languages. You can safely leave notes on your desk without anyone understanding it. Or how about a telephone conversation without anyone understanding it. Some kind of espionage?! The languages I speak fluently are Dutch (mother tongue), English and Norwegian. I also understand Danish, Swedish and French quite well. What I would like to learn in the future is Russian and Icelandic language.

Who I am…

🇺🇸 Written in English

Bear lying inside an open wooden chest.

Hello!

I am a friendly, curious and very sweet teddy bear named Bamse. My name comes from a young Norwegian boy. I don’t think his name matters anymore in this story. We had so much fun together. We often read the Bible, watched the sunset or went for a walk in the woods. His music choices were always very impressive. Besides Norwegian music, I often heard Swedish, Dutch, French and English songs. He understood everything! I only wish he couldn’t sing out of tune and his music wasn’t always so loud.
