One week in... DIS has kept us pretty busy all week with different lectures to go to, information sessions, and social events. I feel like this was a good way for us to get on a schedule and to get over our jet leg better. I'v met lots of new people and have already seen a lot of places throughout Copenhagen. Wednesday I had what DIS called the Amazing Race where they had us find significant landmarks throughout Copenhagen where we were met by a faculty member who would tell us about the history. Despite the cold this was a really nice way to see the city.
Here are some places that I went to:
Our Saviour's Church
Canal in Christianshavn
Amalienborg Castle
Kongens Nytorv
On Friday my Urban Design Studio went for a bike tour to different public spaces.
Matrikel No 8
Sønder Boulevard
Temporary Urban Space at Carlsberg- I think that this is really cool. Its just a bunch of ropes hanging down from the ceiling. But it responds to the windy weather of Copenhagen and people tie a bunch of knots in the ropes. Its a very creative jungle jim.
Frederiksberg Plazas- there is usually water fountains in the area that is gated off
Green Cycle Routes
Ravnsborggade Action Spot
Biking is a very good way to see the city and be more like a dane. However by the end I couldn't feel my toes...
