  • Hej Copenhagen! It’s been a treat getting to know you

    I’ve been in Copenhagen for almost three months. Landing in mid January, I weathered the last of the winter, a couple of impressive city snowfalls, and now April lurks on the horizon, and with it, sunny Spring. Over the last few weeks, as the weather’s gotten warmer and the sunny days longer, it’s been like…

  • Greetings From Aarhus

    When arriving in Denmark many of my preconceptions of this Scandinavian country where immediately confirmed. It was extremely cold, beautiful and cosy. Best of all the people where great!

  • Quiet Town, Lively Experiences

    After planning for exchange for over one year, I thought the day of departure would never come. Yet in a blink of an eye, three weeks of exchange has swiftly flown by, and each day brings forward a new lens to how I view the world.

  • Danes, Hygge and the words ‘wait till the summer’…

    Hej Alle! I am an architecture student currently studying at the Aarhus School of Architecture and have been on exchange here in Aarhus, (pronounced orrhus) Denmark for about 2 months now and have come to love my home away from home.

  • Casual Singlish – First Impressions

    When another country starts becoming a home away from home, then just maybe, you’ve made the right choice. Starting early January and finishing mid April, there are no breaks on this education train. This will be a mini-guide to NTU (2k17).

  • Delightful Delft

    Setting down in the Netherlands after a 30 hour travel stint was a warm and welcome sight! Being rushed through Schilpol

  • So far impressed by the TU Delft Dutch treat

    I’m going on into my third week of being here in on exchange at TU Deft in the Netherlands. My first week was all about getting acclimatized to the new time zone (I lived in LA for a month prior to arriving here), getting the keys to my new student accommodation flat, grokking how to…

  • James – Aarhus School of Architecture, Denmark!

    I flew into Tirstrup Airstrip (nearest to Aarhus), apparently no one visiting Aarhus does. I should have caught the train from Copenhagen – its much cheaper! Everything has gone very smoothly, the past student feedback surveys and seeking out those who were here before me have been amazing.

  • University of Nottingham, Ningbo, China – 1st Impressions

    Two weeks I got on a plane from Sydney to a country where I couldn’t speak a word of the local tongue and didn’t know a single soul living here. The thought was daunting to say the least. Two weeks on I’m thanking myself for taking that dive into the deep end, loving every minute…

  • TU Delft

    It has only been three weeks since I arrived in Delft and in those three weeks I have learnt more than I initially thought. To be frank the first two days were rather grueling. I had spent a month prior to my exchange trip abroad, traveling with my friends and loved ones and then to arrive…
