I definitely have a few regrets during my time in Denmark. If it's within your power to do so, don't make the same mistakes I did. A lot of these are places that ESN goes to during their annual trips, so make sure to take advantage of it if you can.
1. Visiting Legoland. I don't know about you, but I loved LEGOs as a kid. LEGOs were first created in Denmark, so the largest Legoland, naturally, is in Denmark. It's a little more of an amusement park than a place for LEGO enthusiasts, but it's fun to be a kid again, every once in a while. ESN does a trip here.
2. Seeing the white chalk cliffs of Mons Klint. Nothing more to say here besides it's a beautiful place in Denmark. ESN also goes here. If you can't go with ESN, get a group of people and rent a car for the day.
3. Seeing more of Denmark. For some reasons, that I cannot for the life of me figure out, I chose to see more of Europe than I did Denmark. ESN also does a trip during a weekend around some of Denmark's largest cities other than Copenhagen, and it's a lot of fun. The Danish country side is beautiful, and I regret not seeing it.
4. On the same note, not experiencing Copenhagen more. I went to Copenhagen multiple times, but I was an idiot and visited it more from a tourist's perspective. I didn't go to many events that went on in the city, but I definitely should have. Wherever you go to study abroad, actually experience the city as if you're a resident there.
- As a side note, I did go to Copenhagen when EuroVision was going on, and it was great to be in the middle of the cosmopolitan atmosphere there. People from all over Europe were there representing their countries with flags, cheering on their country's representative.
- However, I still regret not going to the actual event. It was by chance that EuroVision was happening in Copenhagen that year, at the exact time that I was there. It would have been a lot of fun to be in that hall watching the performances.
5. I think the last big thing I regret is not going to Arsfest, which is DTU's annual ball/party at the end of the year. It's a TON of fun (based on all my friends' pictures). Even getting the tickets ends up being a huge event (DTUers call it a "line party") where people stay in line all night and have a good time.
Leaving with regrets isn't the best way of doing things, so do youre best to take advantage of all the different events that go on and places nearby. It makes your study abroad experience so much more rewarding.
