Buddy..

After arriving in Odense, we met our buddy Jannie. A buddy is a Danish student who voluntarily helps international students from the day we arrive to the day we leave. It is a useful system to have and one that should be used for exchange students all over the world as it helps to reduce anxiety and nice to know that you’re not going to be alone in foreign country, support is always on hand. She kindly booked us a taxi which was paid by the university college Lillebaelt and took us to the house where we would be staying for the next 7-8 months.

In the afternoon, she showed us around town, shopping center and took us to a sandwich shop which reminded me of Subway back in the UK.
