“I am studying media and politics abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark for a semester. It’s been one of the most eye-opening experiences immersing myself in a completely new culture, making international friends and overcoming hurdles I never imagined I would face. The best part of my week has been getting my new bike in Copenhagen. Bike is the new car over here.”
— Emily, 22, Australia
