Three Weeks


On Saturday, August 26th, I will depart for Denmark. In an effort to stay connected with family and friends, I have decided to publish a blog documenting my travels abroad. Hopefully this will reduce the need for lengthy e-mails and increase the number of people with which I can share my year abroad.

First, a little information. While in Denmark, I will be staying with a host family in the general vicinity of Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark. The program in which I am studying with, DIS – Denmark’s International Study Program, is affiliated with the University of Copenhagen. My courses will mostly be centered around the Medical Practice and Policy Program.

Second, contact information. I will have e-mail access while abroad, and this is the most efficient way to be in contact. Mail can also been sent to the following address:

Anna C. Gehres
c/o Denmark’s International Study Program
Vestergade 7
DK-1456 Copenhagen K
Denmark

Over the course of the next three weeks, I will post occasionally with updates on pre-departure preparations. While abroad I hope to post at minimum every other week, but will attempt to update more frequently, possibly weekly.

Until next time,

Happy travels,

Anna.
