And some class too, of course.
Surprises are fun. 21st’s are fun. And in Copenhagen, as you know, or will soon come to know, Tuesdays are fun. So it was no surprise that the combination of these three things, along with great friends and pizza, brought us one step closer to understanding how hygge really feels.
I’m not the best baker by a long shot, but sharing a big kitchen with the rest of my apartment, where everyone cooks every night gave my friends and I no excuse not to bake up some birthday cupcakes to celebrate our friend finally being legal in America. And I’m so glad we did!
We also hit up a great restaurant called Gorm’s for dinner, and I’d highly, highly recommend the Sweet Potato and Truffle pizza!
Unfortunately, on Thursday our Outdoor LLC’s fire making workshop was called off last minute. But they made it up by getting us all tickets to Tivoli! As we sat down together in the park, all sipping on our hot chocolates and teas, we discussed designs for our LLC’s souvenir shirt and got excited for our trip to Denmark’s Youth Island next week.
And last, but definitely not least, a shout out to my Innovation Through Design Thinking elective. This hands on class amazingly manages to keep me highly engaged despite being the last class on Monday’s 8:30am to 5:45pm schedule. Currently, my group is a few sessions into designing a website to help optimize the abroad experience for DIS students. This is a great way to play around with new features I would love, and also to get to know other students through interviewing them about their DIS experiences.
