All moved in!

So I just moved in to my Folkhejskole (folk-eh-skull-eh) which is in Hillerød about 30k outside of Copenhagen. The place itself is really interesting, I don't think we have anything like it in the US. In Denmark, you have to declare your major when you apply to College, so for people who are not sure what they want to do they have folkhejskole, where they get to try out different things without getting graded on anything so they can explore as much as they want to. The building is VERY green, the hallways have glass ceilings and are lines with plants so the whole place kind of feels like a green house. Its hard to describe but if you look at this picture you can see the lines between the panes of glass in the cieling.

The DIS students who like in my hejskole are all really nice, but we've been a little shy when it comes to interacting with the Danes we live with. Its only been two days so it should be better eventually. Tomorrow night we're all going out in Hillerød so hopefully it will bring us together some. I met Danes my first night in town with girls from my hostel so I think its so weird that I'm being shy now. I guess its because these impressions matter, but its a bit stupid.

I havent explored town yet but there's a CASTLE! Its a bit insane. This picture isn't mine, we haven't seen anywhere close to that much sky since I got here, but this is what it WILL look like come spring time. When we passed by it this morning all the tourets were snow capped which was cool.

Orientation was a bit boring not going to lie. The professors seem excellent and the staff all seem fun and interesting, but sitting through orientation lectures are never very exciting. I can't wait for classes to start thursday, as dorky as that sounds.
