Just two weeks ago I was sitting at brunch with my friends in Copenhagen. We were realistic about the fact that due to COVID-19 our time in Copenhagen was most likely going to be cut short but we all thought we would at least have a week more of time. In between stuffing our faces…… Continue reading Goodbye Copenhagen…

School’s Out…
So, not to flex BUT, I just had ten days off of school. Here, let me explain. At DIS, you and your core course have a travel week at some point in the semester dedicated to exploring somewhere else in Europe in order to further enhance your core course material outside of Copenhagen.

It’s really happening…
Sitting here during the last night of the Fall 2019 semester writing about how I will be in Copenhagen in less than a month is such a surreal experience.
