Denmark covered in Snow

In front of Frozen lake
My lovely host family
Fighting with this cold weather in Denmark, almost half of my American friends have gotten sick but the good thing is that there is free health care in this country so they were able to get proper medications for it. I am still safe and hope to remain safe. As much as sight seeing I do, I don’t really have nightlife. Young Danes are big on partying and staying out late at night but the problem is, you can only go out to a club/bar late at night if you live close to the city so you can just walk to your dorms but most of American students are away from the cities and the last train is at midnight. So, if you stay in a bar after that you don’t have any means of getting back to your place. That said, I am one of those lucky students who are living in the center of Copenhagen so I am 10-15 minutes walk to most of the places in the city. I happened to be lazy so I have not done as much sight seeing as I should have by now but my excuse for that is since I am going to be here for next three months, I should take my time in enjoying the different sites in Copenhagen, after all I don’t want to see the whole city in a week and then have nothing else to see for the rest of my time in Copenhagen.

Other than that, it is ridiculously cold here now a days, it is always windy and moist outside. I am hoping to walk more when it gets a little warmer which would be in the beginning of April and that’s when the world famous park Tivoli would open for the tourist. I have heard so many wonderful things about it; I can’t wait to see it. Talking about world famous things, the best restaurant in the world is also located in Copenhagen. You have to make an appointment months in advance and it is really expensive (almost DKK 2000, or $400) for a meal. They serve you a seven-course meal and it would take you ages to eat there. For those of you who are big on nice meals, you should try it out. One of my friends is trying to get a reservation in the restaurant for a few days but he is on waiting list.
Talking about food reminds me of my nice and elegant dinner I had with my host family (I am not living with them but I visit them once a while). They are really nice people and they were so curious to know about American things, we chatted for hours. I am hoping to go there sometime soon because my host mom bakes the best bread and cookies.
I went to take the famous canal tour the other day with my friend, (it is a tour on boat with a tour guide who would take you to the important sites in Western Copenhagen and would talk about history of those places). We figured it would be a nice experience for us, but when we got there we were told that canal tours are canceled because the canal was frozen. We felt a little embarrassed because it was snowing a day before and we should have realized that everything is frozen but it snows so often here that we consider it business as usual. Snow does not seem to bother Danes because they bike and walk as usual.
It is been a while since we have been here, we are having our midterms this coming week so I definitely need to do a lot of reading for that. (It is hard to believe that we are already almost halfway through the semester). I have to get back to my studies now but I would keep you updated.
Take Care.
