I am officially in love...

So I have been here for one week now and I can officially say that I am in love with this city. I love the charming little buildings and the busy cobblestone streets. I love the buses and the metro and my morning commute. I love the Danes. I have yet to meet someone who isn't friendly and genuinely excited to talk to me. I love the lifestyle that the Danes lead. It is so relaxed and welcoming. And even though it sounds like a throat disease, I even love the Danish language.

I started my classes on Thursday and I'm excited for every one of them. On Mondays and Thursdays I have biomedical ethics and complexity of cancer. My professor for biomedical ethics is incredibly passionate about the subject and although we've only had one class I can already tell it's going to be a very interesting class. Our class has wide variety of students with very different perspectives. We have pre-med, pre-law, economics, philosophy and many other majors represented so I think we are going to have some great discussions. My complexity of cancer is taught by two young doctors who are constantly joking around with each other and with the class so I think it's going to be a really fun class. On Tuesdays and Fridays I have Danish and human health and disease. I'm excited to learn Danish and have already been practicing a bit with my host family. They laugh at my pronunciation but I'm sure I sound ridiculous so I don't mind at all. I'm just happy to have someone correct me. I think human health and disease class might end up being my favorite class. We hold class in a hospital and learn how to diagnose and treat the most common diseases. We get to tour several different sections of the hospital and talk to actual patients. So I'm very excited for the rest of my semester and can't wait to see what the next four months have in store for me.
