Studying abroad is an invaluable experience that can be scary and sometimes uncomfortable, but it is the best thing you could ever do. Take the leap. My semester abroad was the best four months of my life. Be open-minded, be spontaneous, and do what interests you. Take study abroad as an opportunity to get to know yourself and explore your interests.

The most rewarding elements were certainly those that allowed me to get to know Danish culture on a really intimate level, such as living with a Dane my age studying at Copenhagen University and meeting up with my visiting host family often and getting to know them. These memories that I've shared with the Danes I've grown close to are the ones I will keep long after returning to America, and are certainly the ones that shaped my experiences while abroad.

I think my favorite part of the DIS program was the way they approached their academics, it was a perfect mix of time spent both inside and outside of the classroom. Mixing field studies and site visits with what we were focusing on class made for a very intriguing class environment.
