I had much freedom, which gave me an independence. It's an important factor in everyday life especially when sb wants to plan his/her day (of course in accordance with my roommate).

You can do pretty well speaking English at Denmark. Most of the people can answer to you in that language. Add to that Danish is a not so used lenguage, with a complicate phonetic, and you underestand why most students in Denmark try very little with the local language. These who want would find people helps them, tough.

The English language is enough to deal in most situations in Denmark. It is because of that people doesnt feel the necessity of learning the Danish language
