Da: Niels stirrede ud af busvinduet.
En: Niels stared out of the bus window.
Da: Den lille kystby kom til syne, farverig og levende med sine smalle huse, der strakte sig mod himlen.
En: The small coastal town came into view, colorful and lively with its narrow houses reaching toward the sky.
Da: Det blæste, og de gyldne efterårsblade dansede omkring i den friske luft.
En: It was windy, and the golden autumn leaves danced around in the fresh air.
Da: Klassen var på vej til det historiske fyrtårn, der stod stolt på klippens kant og vogtede over havet.

Da: Niels glædede sig.

Da: Han elskede historie, især om havet og dets hemmeligheder.
En: He loved history, especially about the sea and its secrets.
Da: Men han var nervøs.
En: But he was nervous.
Da: Hans klassekammerater, som Katrine og Lars, var mere optaget af selfies og samtaler end rent faktisk at lytte og lære.
En: His classmates, like Katrine and Lars, were more occupied with selfies and conversations than actually listening and learning.
Da: De ankom til fyrtårnet.

Da: Havet brølende nedenfor, og den salte luft fyldte hans næse.
En: The sea roared below, and the salty air filled his nose.

Da: Hvordan skulle han nu vide, hvad han ville spørge om?

Da: I pausen besluttede han sig for at gå på opdagelse alene.

Da: Han listede ind i fyrtårnet og opdagede en smal dør, halvskjult bag nogle gamle fiskeredskaber.
En: He sneaked into the lighthouse and discovered a narrow door, half-hidden behind some old fishing gear.
Da: Han skubbede forsigtigt til den og trådte ind.
En: He gently pushed it open and stepped inside.
Da: Rummet var lille og støvet, men fyldt med skatte.
En: The room was small and dusty, but filled with treasures.
Da: Gamle kort, en slidt kaptajnsjakke, og en dagbog.
En: Old maps, a worn captain's coat, and a diary.
Da: Det var den gamle fyrmestres liv, skrevet ned side for side.
En: It was the old lighthouse keeper's life, written down page by page.
Da: Niels læste ivrigt.
En: Niels read eagerly.
Da: Historierne om storme og redninger var mere spændende end noget, hans klassekammerater delte på de sociale medier.

Da: Den generte dreng, der altid stod i skyggerne, blev pludselig dagens helt.

Da: Han havde bevist overfor sig selv, at hans interesse betød noget, at den kunne skabe forbindelse.
