I know that we will compare differences and similarities a lot and that's going to be fun.
- Ha! The thing is that it is fun to compare and discuss but there are also days where you just don't want to hear other peoples opinions about your country. I experienced to my horror that in me there is not just a hint but a great deal of nationalism!! I have always thought of myself as an open and curious person towards other nationalities and cultures and I can always find many things about the danish society and government that could need severe improvement or change. But there are days I find myself defending how we do things in Dk!! Of course it can have a lot to do with the tone of the discussion that day, if its a heated discussion where we point fingers at each others countries or something but that is just plain silly too. Even though it is not a pretty thing to admit, I'm happy that I learned this about myself because it is useful insight and knowledge to both my personal life and my future work with other people.
