Hi everyone! I am officially in Denmark! I am currently sitting in my new room writing this blog post. In a couple of days, I will post pictures of my house and school and things like that. I learned that I have the introductory part of school starting Monday, and the normal part of school starting a week after that. I guess that does mean that I will be missing school for the language camp and the welcome party. My host family is amazing. Their English is very good, but we are all trying to only speak Danish if possible. The older boy is actually still here, but he will be leaving in a couple of days to do an exchange In Mexico. I have a younger brother who is a year younger than I am. He is an obsessive soccer fan and player. I told him I would yell at the refs for him (in Danish). He also talks really fast!!!!! The flights were fine. I didn't have any trouble getting to Bornholm at all. One last small comment. It is really hard to understand jokes in a foreign language. They make no sense.Wait no not done yet. I have been in Denmark for less than a day and my Danish is already improving!! Also, I am glad that they do not speak Bornholm's version of Danish. It is really hard to understand. It is also hard to understand Swedish accented Danish. Now a last comment. Hey Dad my guest mother is going to teach me how to make rugbroed!
