Personal comments
I improved my English a lot and am fluent now, and that was what I had expected from my stay in Copenhagen. Apart from that, I took a Danish course for beginners which taught me some basic knowledge.

Because of the higher living standard in Scandinavia, the rent and the food was more expensive than in Germany. And I spent more on telephone because of my family and friends living in Germany and other countries.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The apartments which CBS offers to exchange students are very comfortable and in the city center. These apartments are usually for a couple of exchange students from everywhere, that's why I chose this form and would choose it again!

Very good, although kind of expensive, but that's because of the high living standard in Denmark.
