tOuR cOpEnHaGeN

    When I recall that day, I get a smile shaped in my mouth! The day was perfect, we said so many things, we visited so many places, we walked so much and we ended up at school! I remember the feelings I had… I was so excited seeing Copenhagen and so many buildings and learning about them but I also thought I would never get to know all these places I could see from Rundetaarn’s rooftop.
  When our tour ended, we went back to school to spend some time at “Det Gule Hus”. Watching a bar next to school that opens every Friday ready to welcome tired (from five days of hard work) students, was my second cultural shock of the day! (The first one was to see Rika’s convenience to walk bare foot on the streets!!!) The Yellow House was so full that we all had to sit down in rounds. Being more relaxed (maybe because it was our second day at school or maybe because we were drinking beers from bucket-glasses) we were speaking at ease about everything! I can remember how excited I was to speak with Alvaro and Bente about bullfights in Spain, Gaelle and Line about our hometowns, a Danish student (the name was too hard for me to remember) that was about to participate in the International course but finally did not  and many many other classmates!
   I couldn't get enough of what I was having! I wish that day had more hours so I could keep speaking. I was so interested and happy having conversations with people with that different backgrounds. My thirst for intercultural communication grew up and I was thinking that I will have 4 months to satisfy it… Late in the afternoon we went to some other places and after being awake from 07:00 to 23:00 and doing so many things, I went home reflecting that this was one of the best days in my life!!!
