An antipodes' panorama

Day 80:

I have managed to infiltrate and blend with the Danes like a quaintly accented spy a la "Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko". They do not suspect I'm trying to eat them out of bacon and pastries (the staple foods of a typical and quintessential Dane) and emasculate their men (on and off the rugby pitch), undermining their entire society and leaving it vulnerable to an Australia invasionary force.

In addition to these Alpha objectives, some supplementary objectives have been achieved by the Whitemare (me).


Things such as attending the ballet, pictured here (and various foods obvs):

Just killing Peta at Brick Stack (jenga for those not in a topsy turvey world)

cheeky økologisk aftenfest


Also my cousin came to visit and proceeded to be kicked out of the lowliest club in the entire country. Just exemplifying that being drunk and belligerent is inherently genetic and that I should probs stop resisting it. She did jump the fence with my kitchen-mate Ane, drunk/short/white ninja girls clumsily rolling and boosting each other of a metre high fence (and both having the war wounds to show for it). On the upside of that low key tuesday we ate some amazing shwarma/donner/kebab/yiros/gyro and chocolate on the go. I also verbally committed to my cousins now 3 person band English for runaways, consisting of a keytarist, ukulele and me the accordion player. Should be a winner.

playing a few more rugby matches also. sneaky pre-game selfy.



Also my fair share of TV shows and studying have been undertaken. Im also becoming a adequate chef (ladies..), guided mostly by re-runs of the 90's television masterpiece Iron Chef!

Now off to lunch before i go catatonic and the entire last 3 years have been for naught.

Cool Bananer

Velkommen,

Welllll hello there. 2 months down and time has just be flying by. Well and truly into the semester and picking up how the Danish university system operates (which is vastly different to Aus, for my courses anyway) and doing my best to keep afloat amid the reading, beer drinking, classes, rugby and general living events. We have bars at our campus every friday, which are cool and then it seems as if there is a party at my kollegium every week. As seen here, with the Belgian roommate and I.




I'll give a general overview of how my time is spent here. 25% university, 10% rugby, 15-20% partying
shopping for food 10% (i eat a lot and often) gym 5%, with the remainder spent sleeping and watching some TV shows and movies. Student life eh? not so bad. apart from the studying bit its just like being unemployed.

Fuuuuuuarrrrrrkkk, i have been smashing the pastries and cakes here just quietly. The danes do there baked goods so well its ridics. That should be enough incentive for you to come here alone, but they also have a massive selection of bacon, beer and biddies.

Also had my dad visit this last week which was awesome, he was able to come out to a rugby game and watch us carve up a team from Jutland. Then we trekked around Amager and Christiahavn, sight seeing and what not.


few pics:
Heres my rugby team btw FRK:

So all in all its been an eventful end to September, with its fair share of ups and downs (of which is not all peachy, as living here, things do go wrong and some not so fun times are had) but the good faaaar outweighing the negatives. As an example having a good time eating some pastries and writing my blog about my travels while listening to some beastly tunes (Clockwork- BBBS thanks brother)

Here are some more pics from some of the events, Like Tour de chambre (our kitchen/roommate party) and other associated kollegium soirees.
god fornøjelse!


Vi ses!!
