Tasingegade, a student shared housing option for DIS students, has provided me with a great sense of comfort since I've been in Copenhagen. Although I personally do not live there, I spend the majority of my nights there, preparing to go out before a casual evening out and about on the town and for special occasions. Every Tuesday, the SRA's of Tasingegade open "The Great Dane," a bar located in the common room. Here, DIS students can buy beer for 5 kroner and shots for 10, play music, and engage in foosball tournaments. It's a place where we can all come together and enjoy ourselves, celebrating the relationships we have developed with DIS students and Danes alike.
On a typical Tuesday evening, Brittany, Maggie, and I decided that we should share with the class a piece of Copenhagen that we've held so close to our hearts for the past few months: casually hanging out at the Dane. We hoped to convey a message of how important this place has been to us, showing a piece of home (it's the closest thing to home I've experienced in CPH even though I don't have my won key...thanks Umit) that we've found in Copenhagen as well as the strong bonds that we have developed during our study abroad.
