Having spent a week at home for Easter, during week 12, I wasn’t sure how I
was going to react when it was time for me to return to Denmark again. However,
although I was sad to leave my friends and family again, I knew that I would
see them again in 6 weeks time. At Dublin airport I was surprisingly okay
saying goodbye, which shocked me. This showed me how much I have come on since
leaving for the first time in January.
I was excited to get on the plane and see all my Erasmus
friends again. I missed them when I was at home and this shows me what it will
be like when I leave Vordingborg and my Erasmus experience is over. I will really
miss all the friends I have made here as we have all become so close during our
time here. I have really enjoyed getting to know and spending time with a group
of people from different countries. We have discussed how crazy it is to think
that the whole group of us, who are so close right now, may never all be
together in the same room again after our Erasmus time is over! We have all
planned to meet up in different people’s home countries already and I really
hope we do stick to our word. I really feel
I have made friends for life.

Although leaving Dublin airport I was fine, when I arrived in
Copenhagen train station to the buzz and crowds, I had a sudden realisation
that I wasn’t at home anymore and so I felt a bit homesick. However, when I
finally arrived back in Vordingborg and saw all the familiar faces of the
people there and my room with all my things I felt at home again. Within an
hour of unpacking and settling back in, it felt as though I had never been
away! I had settled straight back into life here in Denmark. This has shown me
that although I may not realise it now, I will miss aspects of my life here
when I return home, particularly the relaxed, laid back lifestyle and also that as a person, I have become a lot more adaptable to change and spontaneity, since coming to Denmark.

Although I look forward to 6 weeks time when I return home and
see my family and friends who I miss, I am keen to spend my time left here
wisely. The scary thought is that I have only 6 weeks here to spend with my
friends and also to do and see all the things that we have wanted to and
planned to see before we all go home. I know that time is going to fly between sightseeing
and completing our paper, so these few weeks may be the busiest of my time here
in Denmark!
