Parental Visit and period 3

Last week we started on our third period, kicking off with the topic democratic education. We talked about how students would get education if they had the choice in what they would want to learn, and if teachers were open to these topics. I myself had to make a presentation about how certain youth that are not in school or are not working could help their social standing with art. That was certainly an interesting topic as I myself did not know a lot about that. My parents also visited together with my aunt and uncle, and we had a great weekend. Saturday we visited Aarhus itself, and Sunday we had a great walk in a local nature reserve. It was good to see some family again, and I am really happy that I still had the chance to see them and show them what I have been doing here in person.

Camp, Karaoke and Nordic dips.

  I hope the videos will load, but if not I have had a fantastic week. With the camp (which was entirely run by us) to the karaoke night, to the Nordic dip I had today, it was all-round amazing. I have had a ton of new experiences this week, and 99% of them being positive. I whittled a wooden crocodile at camp, had a lot of time in nature, sang some songs until the early  hours of the morning, and finished it of with a dive into the almost freezing sea today. I am very much enjoying myself here!

First days of school

  I had my first two days at school today. Although the start was wholly something I did not expect, I did meet some cool people. My first two days involved a lot of music. I don't mind music at all, but I thought this course was more about nature then about that kind of stuff. Be as it may, I did have fun with my fellow students and I have met some wonderful people. I am trying my hardest to be social and the fruits of my labour are paying off. The picture is of one of my classmates Mira and I standing at a roof garden. Also Hi Mira if you are reading this.

Last week of internship and King's day

Image
 This week I had my last internship week. It was really nice, and we did several activities. Catching animals in the water with the children, baking cookies and our last activity: Cooking on the fire outside. I had a tremendous time at internship, and when I left it I even got a collection of drawings from them. Tobi and I going back there before the end of my stay here in Aarhus. Martijn hosted a King's day party this week and that was also a lot of fun. I met some of his friends from the Netherlands and they were really nice. All in all a nice week.
