What did you do over the weekend?
Jess and I attended a concert on Saturday called Viborg Rocker with some students from the Kollegium. The Viborg Rocker is a small festival/carnival in the center of Viborg where Danish rock bands come to play. Later in the evening we attended a dinner party at the Kollegium to get to know more people over some great food.
What did you experience over the weekend that you found especially interesting? Why was it interesting?
I thought the Viborg Rocker was especially interesting this weekend. The music was what really shocked me. What we found popular in the late 80s/early 90s has made a comeback in Denmark. I don’t think the music here would fly at home.
What did you experience over the weekend that you found especially negative? Why was it negative?
On Sunday Jess and I decided to take a bike ride out to Foulum. We wanted to see where it was and how long it would take us to bike to work. We shortly discovered that on our way to Foulum the bike paths cut off midway and merges in with traffic. Biking several miles in heavy traffic is very difficult especially when cars are going faster than 40mph. There were several points during the trip where we thought we’d get hit. Cars came very close to us and some were not as yielding as others.
What have your learned to date about the work you will be doing while there?
I have learned that I will be working with dairy cows. I am not sure what I will be doing exactly because I have not been to Foulum yet. Denmark has been on a holiday since we flew in.
