Study abroad at PLU

It has now been one and a half month since I took the first step on American ground. Frankly I must say that this time has been the most magnificent time of my life as a collage student. My expectations when I came was high in many ways maning that I was excited to explore all aspects of how it was to be a danish student in America. Since my American major is in communication, I believe that my daily perspective on the school system, differs from others of my fellow students, who are mostly studying within business and economics (God save and protect them). Being involved with the American media press on a daily basis is giving me an oppurtunity to dig deeper into the complexity of American infrastructure. Enough said: 

PLU - North Campus

PLU - Residence Hall (VOSS)

PLU it self is a small and cozy university with only 4.000 students. Located in the green area of Washington State in the city of Tacoma, makes it the most beautiful campus I've ever seen.  
Many students are living on a daily basis in one of the many student residence halls. American collagestudents are studying for 4 years to get their bachelor (which is different from danish students who normally have only 3 years). Many of them come directly from high school, which makes them really young compared to the age of danish university students. I'm 24 and I'm among the age-presidents of campus ! Many new students find it comfortableand safe to spend their first years in company with a roomie in ONE room. I've chosen to stay in a single dorm room, which I've been very satisfied with up to now.

Washington state is known as one of the states with the most rainy days. But as you can see, we also get to see the sun once a while. 

I met so many incredibily nice people while I've been here. It makes it easier to be away from everyone and everything you know, when you have good people around you. I really appreciate the diversity I've faced during the first time of my stay. One American guy asked me what I thought about Americans. I told him that the truth was that there was no simple answer to that. Americans are with no doubt the most diversed people I've ever seen. Besides Americans, I have also encountered many other wonderful people who are also in an exchange program like myself.You all know who you are.
