My first post from Denmark! I arrived sunday-afternoon and my buddy Eva was already waiting for me to hand me the keys to my new home for the next 4,5 months. The room is 16m² and I have also a small bathroom. I share the kitchen with my 11 flatmates and we have a common livingroom. The neighbourhood is like the North of Amsterdam: a lot of different cultures. So I live in my future-work area now ;-)
The appartment-block where I live is one of the, around, 9 blocks. It is a closed terrain which only can be entered when you have a key. In all blocks live students and there is a real competition between the buildings. In this competition all buildings have to do several things (throw a party, sport-tournaments, funny games, etc) to earn the price for best building of the terrain. I think my block will be lucky with me because I'm pretty competitive and when I start a competition I want to win!
Yesterday (monday) Shabir and I cleaned my entire room because there was a pretty bad smell and it wasn't really clean. We also went to IKEA for some stuff like a nightlamp, kitchentowels, etc. In the afternoon we walked around the city-centre of Aarhus. It is a pretty big centre with a lot of shops. It is definitely bigger than Zwolle. I haven't expierenced the nightlife yet, so I can't say if it is better than Zwolle before I now how (and if) the Danish can party ;-)
Shabir will stay untill wednesday-evening and then I am really on my own. My study starts next tuesday (26th) so I have some days to discover the area and get to know my flatmates.
Byeee!
Frederieke
PS. Oh, did you know everything is named by me? I see a lot of Frederic/Frederika on signs and even streetnames!
