My favourite night spot was a pub a bit alternative called Alibi. And there is also a cinema theatre very friendly called Cafe Biografen.

Odense lies in a great central spot to first of all visit other places in Denmark, secondly to see some of the rest of Scandinavia as well. Use that.

Personal comments

In the university I used English, and I did with other students as well. Some professors were natives, American or English, so I have had the opportunity to improve my fluency and some vocabulary. Learning Danish has been a good experience, although it is a pity that I have to leave when I am starting to be able to speak and understand (just a little!)
