One would think that after spending over four months in Holland, my transition into a Danish world would go smoothly. Instead, after the tease that was two weeks in Montreal, moving to Aarhus was more difficult than I had imagined.
Sure, everyone from my program has made the move as well, but it’s tough. I kept thinking back to the time I spent in Montreal with family and friends. The jokes, the fun times, and even just the lazy moments watching TV with my brother. I even missed being surprised by Frisky’s random attacks – kind of.
It’s only been a week and I’m slowly starting to view Aarhus as my new home… for the next six months at least. And who knows, I may learn to like the cold, block-shaped barrack otherwise known as my apartment and speak a few phrases of Danish? Hmm, it could happen.
