Quick update from the Danish frontier.
My sister has arrived! And because only men should be subject to hostels we have moved into classier budget hotel accommodations. An apartment has been secured a week from now and faux touristy things will entertain in the meantime. We are in a pretty central location so we can walk to a lot of fun sites. Bekka has also brought a decent camera and I found a replacement for my schizophrenic camera. So expect a 200% increase in photos of relevant and possibly even interesting things.
I started my “intensive” Danish course today and it turned out to be rather fun for the whole three and a half hours. Jeg kan kun tale lidt dansk now! 3 hours of class learning have overtaken over a month of book learning in a single stride. I should be speaking mostly danish in no time!
The socialists are also paying for my courses and for my course materials and I really can’t complain.
Things are back in motion.
Till next time,
Johann
Well, I have to say that’s the funniest video I have seen in a long time. Reminds me of when I tried to learn some Chinese. All I could be sure of was that what I was trying to say was not what they would think I said. But I am glad to see you are starting the serious work of working on the language.
Glad to know that Bekka is safely there, and you two can commiserate on the trials and tribulations of the expat life together. Looking forward to the next post, and hoping it has as good a title!
The title is the only thing I can guarantee these days.
But yes, I am relieved to offload teaching responsibility onto someone with experience. If things continue on this track I will be fluent in no time.
Me and Bekka are going to do some touristy things the next few days so that should be fun, the weather is much more accommodating than it was when I first landed so I can make up for some lost ground on the tourist front.
