This was my fourth week abroad and tomorrow marks my one month anniversary with this beautiful country!
After getting back from London, I needed a little bit of a recovery (both with my wallet and with my sleeping). I really lucked out with an easy week- classes only on Wednesday and Friday. I had my Introduction to Sustainable Business class on Friday and really enjoyed the readings and lecture so I'm excited to continue with this class. I've also brainstormed a couple of ideas for my synopsis and oral presentations for Operations Management (Emergency Service distribution systems) and Retail Marketing (Wegmans).
Other than class, I've been able to research more things to do in Copenhagen and more cafes to explore. I've also been able to start planning my trip to Berlin and Iceland. I leave on Thursday for Iceland and am very excited- hopefully I'll get to see the Northern Lights!
I've also been able to do so so so much fun stuff this week in Copenhagen.
Tuesday Night- I went to Mikkeller and Friends in Nørrebro with a few people. I tried the Alefarm Kindred Spirit and the Mikkeller Nelson Sauvignon. I really enjoyed the first one and was also able to try Wicked Weed Montmaretto and Aeblerov Cider (both of which I would love to buy bottles of). The bartender shared one of his favorite bars with me called Himmeriget bar and I would love to get there someday.
Wednesday Night- I competed in a International Student Trivia Night with Maddie, Danielle, Kim, and Katie and we won 7th out of 36th!! I was also able to enjoy a Tuborg in my school.
Thursday Night- This was a total G&T night. We went to an open bar in City Center at Zoo Bar. The bar was filled with smoke and great music.
Friday Night- THE XX CONCERT!! I had so so so much fun at this concert. It was incredible. I pregamed with a couple of craft brews and arrived at the concert an hour early. Kelela put on a great performance and repped D.C. The xx were just incredible, they had a great lineup and set design. I made direct eye contact with Romy and (not trying to be dramatic) cried a little. I love her so much and the music was so great and all of it was just amazing. I haven't been able to stop listening to any of their albums since. After the concert, I met up with a couple of friends in the Meatpacking District at Bakken and was able to enjoy some nice beats. We then went to KB3 and danced the night aawwwaaaaay with my friends, Josh and his Wisco friends, and random Danes.
Saturday Night- after a couple of long nights, I took an L. I got some readings done, worked on trip itineraries, and went to the gym. At night, my friends and I had a hygge night and enjoyed some delicious bread, cheese, veggies, and hummus. I went to bed afterwards because on Sunday...
Sunday- we got up really early to head to the airport to pick up a rental car. Australian Kim, who is used to driving on the left side of the road, drove a manual car to Møns Klint in Borre. This was definitely an experience watching someone learn how to drive on the other side of the road but she did a great job!!! The chalk cliffs were absolutely beautiful although it was so cold. We took a couple of great pictures and stopped in Stege for some pick me up coffee and hot chocolate. It was really nice to get out of Copenhagen and go for a car drive.
I only have class on Wednesday this week so I'm looking forward to working out, doing more school and trip itinerary work and exploring Copenhagen on Monday and Tuesday. I leave for Iceland on Thursday and return on Monday morning.
