Personal comments
In Denmark, Danish students usually live in "Kollegiets", kinds of big areas where students are in rooms with a kitchen on each floor of the buildings. But these kollegiets are often full, so international students usually live with a familly (which is nicer to discover a culture).

Personal comments
Danish is an amazing language. It is quite difficult to learn. I think it is becasue you keep on learning new words and sentences, and you still cannot understand the locals. It is very frustrating, and takes some time to adapt one's ears to the spoken Dansih. Lots of people give up learning Danish because of this frustration.
