100 days.

If you read this I will give you a candy, because it's important for me :)

So, I have been in Denmark the las 100 days, I haven't wrote about it or taken many photos, but I have lived this experience with all that I have, I have had good moments and really bad ones, I have felt alone and loved, I have missed Chile and I have smiled to all the new people that I have met. 

Now this is for the ones who knows me... Danish and Chilean people (also all over the world AFS <3) 

Diferences Between Denmark and Chile 

Not better or worse, just different.

People: Danish people is really shy, you have to talk to them, and also try to don't push too hard because they need their "privacy" or that's what we think. Chilean people doesn't have privacy(not good), we are just a lot of people together, who talk about their problems with their friends or just with an stranger, you always have to take care and remember don't tell your secrets to strangers, and actually to anyone. 

Contact: Physical contact in denmark is almost NOTHING, just shaking hand or a hug with one arm, for me, it's the most difficult part. Chileans are hugging all day or  just "touching" (doesn't sound good, but it's true) sometimes Chileans "touch" each other too much. I think both countries go to the extremes. pd: I need hugs.

Relationships: Here (in DK) is normal call the teachers by their names, call also the parents by their names...WEIRD haha! I can't , it's just that I CAN'T! In Chile the people that is older than you is an authority , so you can't call them like you call your friends, it's normal to call "aunt" or "uncle" to the parents of your friends. For me this have been difficult, I really don't know how to call the people.

Facebook: If Chileans think that they (we) use too much facebook, you haven't lived here! Danish are ALL DAY on facebook (also me) . The problem of Chileans with facebook is that  we have to write everything in the wall of the others persons, we can't use just inbox, it has to be in their wall.

Partys:   The partys in Chile are always like first, "previa" go to a house before the party, drink, dance, talk , play, etc... Second, go to the party and JUST DANCE (sometimes kiss haha), but is not about just drink, is about DANCE :D. Partys here, first, "previa" also, the same thing...Second the party, where actually it's going to a bar (moving constantly ) and get drunk, girls dance, but to make a boy dance it's a bit more difficult, actually they do,but it's not like they are going to you and to your friends and will ask "hey, do you want to dance with me? " NOOOOO! It's not like that.

Boys = Girls:  In Denmark boys and girl are the same, gender equality level god, so gentlemens almost doesn't exist! I GIVE A SH**T ABOUT GENDER EQUALITY! I want my gentlemens ahahah! I can't generalize, because I know some boys that actually are gentlemens. I have to say it, it's better this way at least when we talk about work, money and oportunities, that a man open you the door it's not going to feed you. 

Healthy: Chileans eat SO FREAKING BAD! I didn't know that until I came here, really we so bad, but in Denmark the people care a lot about being healthy, and it's really good, I hope that when I come back to  Chile I remember it....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP hahah give my chocolate.

Cleaning: The cities in Denmark are so clean and I love it :D

Honesty: Danish people is honest, sometimes for me it sounds a little bit rude, but it's because I'm not use to it, in Chile the people is not really honest, and they will smile to you even when they just want to kick you in the ass. 

Denmark is a beautiful country, when I chose DK  I thought that it was going to be different than Chile, but I never thought that it was going to be SOOOOO diferent. It's more difficult to get to the people, but when you do, you actually can trust in them, I'm happy, I'm glad, because it's not about being the best friend of everyone (that's not going to happen) it's about trying to find one person, just one, who cares about you, and when you do, it's enough :) I know that not everyone it's that lucky, I have a really good class, somedays I almost don't talk,  I can't understand their conversations, but it is just because it's different, and I already understood , I'm happy because even when I don't understand I feel with the confidence enough to just start a conversation and I know that they are going to be really nice and continue with it, also I know that some of them cares about me and that is the best thing ever. Here in Denmark I have learned to appreciated EVERYTHING, I appreciated every laugh, every "hug", every time that someone say "goodmorning" for me it's just amazing, and if you can't appreciated that kind of things, this kind of experience in a country so different than yours it's going to be really difficult...Just enjoy the good things, because you will cry sometimes, and feel alone, but if you enjoy that little moments, and that little things, at the next day you will be able to smile. I'm smiling :) 

Thank you Denmark for everything! I have a beautiful host family, I have learned to love my small town Ryde, and my asooom class 2.b

Don't forget that I'm a latin girl, I just need smiles, hugs, and a nice chat with you danish people, I came to this country because I want to learn about you... So teach me :D 

pd: You can see I'm different, but I have my mind open and I'm ready to learn. 

Thank you for reading.
