First Post

Hey everybody!

I see you've located my blog for my study abroad semester. Here I'll be trying to post regular (and frequent random) updates on my life. First, a few facts:

I'm living in a place called a Hojskole (although the first "O" should have a line through it), which is a school for Danes wherein they study creative subjects at their whim without grades. While this does contribute to a relaxed atmosphere, the Danes are somewhat at a loss in response to our loads of homework.

Denmark is 7 hours ahead of you. As I write this, it is 9 am there, and 4 here.

Denmark uses the Kroner, or crown, which is bought at a rate of 6 kroner to one dollar thanks to the recent election. Everything is expensive here because of a value added tax which drives retail prices up.

Thanks for reading.
