I still haven’t gotten used remote learning and we’re already 2 weeks in and 2 more weeks to go. I think I still haven’t come to terms with having my life being thrown for a loop in less than a month. Today was the first time I’ve stepped out of my house since I’ve arrived …
Remote Learning With A TV Remote In Hand
In theory, I always thought that remote learning would be ideal. You do your classes from the comfort of your own home, not having to wake up every morning to go to class. Boy was I so wrong. Remote learning is much more complicated when living through an epidemic. These days I find it so …
Self-Quarantine Take 2
Week 2 of being self-quarantined back at home and things haven’t been too bad except that it has been a little uncomfortable for me since I’m usually not home in the middleof the semester. On top of me self-quarantining myself, my state has highly recommended that residents participate in social distancing, so I won't be …
Self-Quarantine Blues
This week I start my self-quarantine at home. My study abroad program recommended that all its students self-quarantine for 14 days after arriving to their destination as a precaution. Just in case we do develop that we don’t infect loved ones. Long story short, self-quarantine sucks! Ever since I’ve gotten home, I’ve been isolated to …
Goodbyes Are Always The Hardest
I'm back in the airport where it all started. Exactly 2 months ago I arrived in Copenhagen excited about what the semester would bring and curious to explore what would been my first time in Europe. Sadly, my adventures in Copenhagen had to be cut short. The past 48 hours has been a storm of …
Off Guards in Stockholm
Off Guards With Guards Because I couldn't bare to end my travels just yet, I decided to visit one more country before I headed back to Copenhagen. So from Finland, I was off to Sweden. Sweden reminded me a lot of Copenhagen with its cobblestone streets and colorful people. Like Copenhagen, every other building was …
Fun From Start To Finnish
The second stop on my long study tour was Helsinki, Finland. Of course the only appropriate way to get from Estonia to Finland is by ferry (obviously). What I imagined this ferry to be was nothing like it actually was. I thought it would be a medium sized boat that would ship my class of …
Fallin’ for Tallinn
Tallinn, Estonia There has been so much going on from the last time I blogged! The next couple of posts will be dedicated to all the traveling that I've done this week! From Copenhagen, to Tallinn, to Helsinki, and Stockholm, I've been in awe the entire time as to how this is really my life! …
Time Flies When You’re Having Fun
It's already been a month since I've landed here in Copenhagen! In my short time here I feel like I've already adjusted to Danish life. I can know get to my classes and local shops without using Google Maps (huge accomplishment considering every street has a hidden alleyway making it very easy to get lost). …
Rest and Relaxation
This past weekend I went on a retreat with my living learning community. As a member of the Public health LLC, every week we partake in activities that surround public health issues. For this week's event we were in Tisvildeleje where we practiced yoga, meditation, and mindfulness. Tisvildeleje is a seaside town where many Danes …
