One Month In

I can not believe that we've been here in Denmark for a month now. It still feels like we've just barely arrived, yet at the same time, it seems as if we have been here much longer. This past month has been so full of ups and downs. We've had some very difficult experiences, yet we've also begun making some good memories here. I still feel that we have a long way to go before we are able to call Denmark our home. Everything we do just feels so foreign. Even sitting here in our apartment, things are strange. But, we are getting there. We are starting to learn the language, we are beginning to feel comfortable navigating the public transportation, and a trip to the market isn't quite as awkward as in the beginning. The weather has begun warming up, just slightly. And we are excited for what spring will bring. We are finding that we learn something new here every day and are happy that we are starting to feel more comfortable here. We love that there are walking/bike paths everywhere, that there are bakeries all over the place that have some of the yummiest pastries, and that the people here have been so kind, loving and helpful. I'm glad that we have this first month under our belts. I'm certain that life here will just continue to get better and better.
