Personal comments
Pay your bills on time otherwise fees are enormous. The cheapest supermarket - Netto, good meet products are in Føtex. Transport - buses and trains have operate under the same system, so one can use the same ticket for both. For smokers - cigarettes are very expensive, so bring as many as you can with you to Denmark. Do shopping at the discounts time (after Christmas and after 15 July)

I wish I had known more about the host university and host country

In my opinion:
I loved it but I'm not sure everybody would.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
to develop on-campus infrastructure: the university if in the middle of a field, there are no shops, the only place to buy food is the cantine, that closes at 5 p.m. So a little grocery store or pizzeria or alike woulde be useful.
