Studying abroad in Copenhagen during fall as a High School student 2024

By CIEE Copenhagen at CIEE

One aspect of studying abroad in a foreign country that comes along with the amazing experiences is realizing and being grateful for everything you have at home. I really never appreciated how nice it is to be around your native language and the importance of being able to communicate. I’m very lucky, since most Danes speak very good English, so I can get by, but if I had traveled to a different country it would be even more difficult. By studying abroad, I feel I have become a lot more confident and independent. One aspect that has helped me is having an amazing host family. I think my experience would have been a lot more challenging if I didn’t have them.
