Updates!

Liz and I on the harbor. This is an old picture - all the way back during orientation!

I joined a painting class! These are our paintings from the first day. We looked at  Pablo Picasso's Guernica and then picked a square from the painting to use as inspiration for our picture. Then we had to visualize our favorite color and a color that we hate, and use them BOTH in the same painting!

My scary bull picture

I joined the gym! It is literally right around the corner from my building so I  can't use distance as an excuse not to go!

My "visiting family," Lars and Lilly, took me to see Tivoli before it  closed. The next exhibit will be for Halloween!

The Tivoli boys guard. 

Hard Rock Cafe in Tivoli!

The bubble fountain

We shopped at the glass market for food to make a delicious dinner! This is the table set up before the food was done cooking. We ate delicious homemade curry with white fish and brown rice, and a raw salad with juicy tomatoes :)

Lars and Lilly love cooking and they collect the most unique utensils and food ware! There is even a whole wall dedicated to their collection in their living room :)

Me with my visiting kitty cat!

Liz, Hannah and I biked to a forest/park last Wednesday. It was beautiful - we were inspired to do some yoga!

Walking in the forest. 

My Danish Language and Culture class took a field trip to Christiania, the permanent Whole Earth Festival in  Copenhagen, as I like to think of it (Sorry non-Davis people, this reference probably won't make sense to you...). It was founded in September of 1971 when a group of hippies, young homeless people, and bohemians started living in an old military base (or so my Danish textbook says). We actually ended up going on Christiania's Birthday, so there were many festivities going on while we were there! Christiania operates a bit outside the rules of normal society; for instance they openly sell "hash" (what most Californians call POT), but outlawed hard drugs and violence, and no cars are allowed on the streets, and dogs are NOT allowed to be on leashes! I didn't bring my camera to this adventure because you aren't allowed to take photos on pusher street (ALL drugs are still illegal according to the Danish government, and people don't want to get busted), but I stole a few from my friends...

The bridge in Christiania, plus BUBBLES!

Me being creepy, and Mary Jo looking normal

Me and Haley Mae!

Alright folks, that's all I have for now! Hope you've enjoyed my update. More to come... later.
