my personal blog
It has been such a great five months here in Denmark. I have been so busy between my studies, trying to find a job, and unfortunately, breaking my right(!!) wrist that I just haven't been able to bring my self to blog... until now! With only one exam left on the horizon until August and…
What have I been doing the past few weeks? January turned out to be a very, very busy month, and besides the blog posts from the first week, I have had no time to write about any of what's been happening in my life. So now I will catch you up on everything that has…
After Natascha and I had went to the Louisiana Museum, Mads had a date planned for me! For one of my Christmas presents, he got us tickets to go to a wine tasting. I had never been to a wine tasting before, so I was super excited! The wine tasting took place at a wine…
Natascha and I had talked about going to this museum when we went to Washington D.C. together, so for Secret Santa I gave her a ticket to the museum! It was both of our first times going to Louisiana, and it was so cool. Before we got to the museum, I got a little lost. Natascha and…
This week has just flown by! I have been so busy checking all the necessary things off my to-do list that I have not had time to write. Now, I have so much to write about, but I'll start with New Year's Eve. New Year's Eve has never been much of a big deal for…
Mads has been trying to get his own apartment for a while, and a few weeks ago, he got the news that his offer for an apartment was accepted! Getting an apartment in Copenhagen is very difficult. Usually you join some sort of union, and the longer you are in the union the better! Some…
Today was the day that Mads was scheduled to defend his thesis! Two weeks before, he had turned in his thesis, and he had studied all day before to prepare for defending it. It is tradition in Denmark for friends and family to be there while he defends his thesis and wait for him outside…
It was my last night in Copenhagen. A few weeks before, Mads thought it would be a good idea to do something on our last night together, so that we wouldn't just lay at home and be sad. Mads is a huge Brøndby fan, so when he saw that they were playing FCK (Brøndby's biggest…
I have been excited to go to this for ages ever since Mads first invited me to his cousin's wedding last year. We both had only been to one wedding before, and it was my dad's wedding. This wedding would be both of our second wedding and our first Danish wedding. We were so excited…
Copenhagen is one of the biking capitals of the world. Having lived there for two and a half months, I realized very early how essential bikes our to get around in this city. Every Dane I know in Copenhagen was born riding a bike. Some of them (including my boyfriend), don't even have a driver's…
