Copenhagen, I will miss you<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI moved to Copenhagen in January 2011. Next week, I will leave.\u00a0After four and a half years,\u00a0I will leave this fabulous city\u00a0for new adventures. There are so many mixed emotions pulsing through my body.<\/p>\n

The people I’ve met, the experiences I’ve had, the memories I’ve made… Do I feel happy? Or sad? Right now it’s a rollercoaster. A rollercoaster I know so many people have ridden. It’s the rollercoaster ride that takes you from one place to the next, that carries you and all of your belongings from one exciting adventure to another, hopefully bringing all the wonderful memories you’ve made trailing along in the wind: there’s a seat for every friend you’ve ever made during your adventure on this rollercoaster, but you know you’re now in different carriages.<\/p>\n

I feel about Copenhagen what I have never yet felt about any other place I’ve moved to: I feel at HOME here\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Leaving a school is tough, especially when you have been there for many years. You go through so many emotions. Change is good, but change is hard.<\/em><\/p>\n

Want to read more about teachers leaving a school (and how many are leaving this school\u00a0year)? \u00a0Check out this survey we had back in March 2015\u00a0called\u00a0“New Survey: How many people are leaving your international school at the end of this school year?<\/a>“<\/em><\/p>\n

My Daily Copenhagen Commute<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve written before about how refreshing a daily commute by bike can be and how I’ll never ever take for granted the opportunity I’ve had to do that every day since moving to Copenhagen in January 2011. By the time I arrive at work, I feel completely revitalised and thoroughly refreshed – I feel as though I’ve already done something for ME before the day has even begun. It’s free excercise that I don’t even realise I’m doing since I just consider biking my mode of transport. Anyhow…\u00a0recently, I received a GoPro from my family for my (ahem, 30th) birthday and the first thing I (ahem, very VERY geekily) did with it was… film my daily commute to work.<\/p>\n
