My whole life changed when I boarded a plane on January 30th to study abroad for a semester at the ESB Business School in Reutlingen, Germany. I was nervous and excited, and I had no clue what to expect. I had never been to Europe, I had only ever left the country for a few…
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…
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…
After a long day of studying at the library, it was finally time to go home. Mads and I had ordered Chinese food, but we had an hour to kill before it was ready, so Mads planned a surprise date for me. This wasn't just a surprise date, because I didn't know what he was…
One thing that I had to cross off my bucket list before I left Copenhagen was to go boating with Mads and his mom at Furesø lake. Today was the last possible day that we could all go. The weather predictions weren't that great, but we decided to go anyways. Mads' mom, Anette, met us…
All summer I have wanted to try Friday Night Skate, and last Friday, I finally got the opportunity to go! Mads and I had just got back from the summer house, and one of our friends asked us if we wanted to go with her. I've been wanting to go for so long, so I…
On our last day at the summer house in Bogø, we took a day trip to Møns Klint. Møns Klint is located on the coast of the island called Møns where there are huge, chalk cliffs that border the ocean. It took us three buses to get there, but it was so worth it! Mads…
Mads and I have planned this trip for a while! His family has a summer house on an island south of Copenhagen called "Bogø" which translates to "Book Island." A week ago, we drove down to Bogø to stay at his family summer house for 6 days. It was a wonderful week of relaxing, reading,…
One thing that Mads and I have done a few times is rent little boats and go around the harbor with friends. The popular company that people in Copenhagen rent boats with is usually GoBoats, but FriendShips is a newer company that not many people know about, and the boats are nicer and actually cheaper.…
The evening before Susi and Felix had to leave, we decided to have a picnic and go to Sommerdans in Fælledparken. We picked up a little transportable grill, bought some sausages, salad, and bread, and set up at a little picnic at a picnic table in the park. While the grill was getting ready, we…
