two months.

So here is to two months of being away from my family, friends, and my home. These two months have gone by so quickly, but at the same time Danmark feels like home and it feels like I have known my host family and new friends forever. It is quite odd, but now I cannot imagine going home. Well let me update you on what I have been up to

Last weekend was Vitor’s, an oldie from Brasil, birthday party, so a lot of Brasilians came for the weekend and Rafael stayed at my house. A couple girls stayed at Ana’s house, so we all hung out for the weekend. It was really nice, but when a huge group of brasilians get together they just speak Portuguese, so a lot of the time I didn’t know what was going on. But they made this delicious brasilian dessert, it was so yummy, I loved it. The week went by quickly and I had Danish lessons, I really enjoy them and everyone in my class. Thursday night we all decided to go have dinner together and then hangout at the park, it was lovely. The kids in my class are so nice and easy to talk to. Also at lunch some of my classmates have been getting me to speak Danish to them, they will ask a question and then I have to respond or I ask a question and they respond. I think this will really help me learn and hopefully soon I can start speaking it more and more.

Tomorrow I shall be having dinner with one of the rotarians from my club and his family. His daughter went to Canada, so that will be really cool to talk to her and I believe he said they were hosting an exchange student named Jenna. I went with my rotary club to the Odense Theatre on Thursday and it was really cool, we got a tour of the whole building and we got to stand on the stage, but to my surprise the theatre was very small, I honestly think that my school auditorium back home was bigger than it. But they had a HUGE costume space, it was MASSIVE! I unfortunately forgot my camera because I had limited time to get ready because silly me thought we were going at 8 pm, but no, we were to meet at 8 AM, so I was sleeping and Lisbeth, a lady from rotary, came to pick my up at 7.30 and I was sound asleep, but it was so nice, so I am glad I went. Also tomorrow I am going to Mara’s house with Taylor and Erin, Erin is from Canada and Taylor and Mara are from America, and we will be making a Canadian/American breakfast which will consist of pancakes (the thick kind), bacon, scrambled eggs, syrup, hash browns, and toast. It will be so delicious! I will take pictures and post them.

Until I write again, Maggie.
