I should be more precise - the past week and the future week. The PastFull of friend dates, movie nights, good food, and multiple cups of coffee - the last week of September has been sweet. The weather has been incredible - around 60 degrees and sunny skies. Apparently that isn't a normality for Copenhagen falls. Good weather sparks the curiosity in me, so in the past two weekends I have...
On an academic note, I went on a field study tour to the UN on Wednesday with my Development of Economics class. Members of the World Food Program and the United National Program gave my class a presentation on the most recent data and happenings within the selected departments. These field studies are part of the reason why I love DIS. We are currently reading about the UN in the textbook, and the opportunity we have applying the classroom to real life are the things that differentiate DIS from other programs. Later that night was International Career Night. This is an event where four young professionals talk about their experiences adjusting to the work world of Copenhagen, and moving to Europe in general. This didn't necessarily apply to me because moving across the world isn't in my current future plans, but it arose many possible opportunities for other students that Copenhagen has for an American young professional looking to start a career in Europe. FutureSo much to look forward too... wow.
Besides a typical week of classes and homework, I'm going to Berlin and Prague! My first real European trip! My core class has our long study travel week starting Sunday that will go until Friday. We'll spend three days in Berlin, and then the remaining three days in Prague visiting companies and different industries learning about European Business Strategies. As excited as I am for the academic purpose of this tour, I can't help but be just as excited for the adventure aspect. I don't yet know the itinerary for the week, but all I know is that it's gonna be sweet!
