Pre-Adventure

Hello,

I'm sorry this is going to be so brief, but I'm drinking coffee and as soon as I'm done I've got a list of things to do that's as long as Jutland.

I fly out tomorrow morning to a new life! I'm going to be a Danelandish student studying Environmental Biology and something I don't fully understand at the University of Roskilde. I have to admit I haven't been sleeping my usual 8 hours or eating my usual 5 meals a day these past few days. I feel like I have some dinural lepidoptera species bouncing around my stomach, but sometimes this feels good and exciting.

I'm looking forward to meeting lots of strange Danish people, with their peculiar attitudes towards tax, fish and curry. So far I'm meant to be starting a pre-course course on Sunday (not sure if that's right) but I haven't been given any information about it at all! so that might not happen. I guess if it doesn't then I'll have more time to sort out my visa, accommodation, bank accounts and learning the language and other minor details.

I'll try to pepper this blog with interesting photos (like this one, but obviously more relevant).



I'll also try and make it funnier... Sorry I guess that I'm just a little pre-occupied right now. Ummm... What's the hardest food to eat with chop sticks? Wan ton because it weighs one ton! hahahaha well you can't complain now, that was technically a joke!

More admin (and yet another apology) for those of you stupid enough to want to actively follow my adventure/demise in Denmark, the first few entries will most probably be short, and infrequent due to me not knowing entirely where I'll be living and also not having a definite internet connection - it's like I won't just be moving to Denmark but also back to 1987! I will endevour to sort this out ASAP and get some highly organised and structured method for getting the stories to the people.

If you are certified insane and want to follow my exploits (and you really would need to be gaga to want to learn more about me based on this child like ramble) you can find me on facebook (Hu Lynn), or twitter (but I don't understand that). Or you can bump into me in Sorø, Roskilde or Copenhagen - I'll be the one with curly hair making a blatant social faux pas.

Well I got to go shower and buy stuff and pack and look for visa forms and copy music from CD's to my computer and learn to speak Danish and stuff.

Bye Bye (or Favel)
