I'm officially in Copenhagen!
These first few days have been absolutely surreal, and I'm constantly in awe as I walk around the city and happen to stumble upon all the cool destinations I've been reading about for the past few months. Although I've been here for less than 72 hours, I already feel so comfortable in this city - the locals are incredibly friendly and helpful, the architecture is stunning, the food is delicious and diverse, and DIS has done a great job of helping us get a good feel for the city we will be calling home for the next four months. Copenhagen is stunning, and so much of its charm is packed into the little details like the cobblestone streets, the street musicians, the truly unbelievable number of cafes and coffee shops, and the sound of spinning bicycle wheels. I've already conquered grocery shopping [I stared at shampoo for about ten minutes trying to do monetary conversions in my head...] and banking, and tomorrow I'll be attending another orientation event on the transportation system, so soon I'll be living like a true Dane... sort of? Still can't pronounce the street I live on to be honest...
