I would describe my experience in Denmark as an unforgettable experience of a lifetime.
The most important experience from Denmark is the collaborative and team working culture.
University of Copenhagen is an excellent university for higher study. In my MSc Course in Rural Poultry Production and Health, all teachers, organizers and resident providers gave us maximum efforts for achieving knowledge and skills to apply them in our own countries.
I am very impressed by the friendliness of the Danish people. Everywhere you go people are ready to help. The Danish trust and faithfulness is what I treasure and what I miss when I am away from it, but I keep in touch with Denmark by communication with my Danish friend
My experience in Denmark as a student has been a transformational one. From being a relaxed and laid back person, I became focused and more fast-paced. From the start, everything seemed unusual to me but my curiosity pushed me to make meaning out of each scenario.
