Easter Week (Haderslev) Monday 2nd April- Friday 6th April


After my last few weeks of International week and the Efterskolen in Rejsby , I was well in need of a weeks holidays. During this week I planned to do very little except socialise with the girls and our buddies in the Trubunen and Crazy Daisy's and all together not worry about an early atart in the morning. Every Sunday I attend Mass in the town of Haderslevand on Easter Sunday it was particularly nice. The chapel was beautifully decorated with candles and daffodiles. Again it was a special occasion that I was not looking forward to spending so far away from home, especially when Denmark is a country of little to no religion. Mass in particular is very different to home with regards to the people who attend the mass here are not even Danish, but indeed Chinese and a lot the ceremony is spoken in Chinese! Nonetheless, as time has progressed in Denmark I have come to the conclusion that although things may not be as you are used to in your own country, it is always a good experience to observe how things are done differently in other countries and although at the beginning it may not seem as good as home, it is in fact just different, but by no regards better. In fact I must admit that I had a very enjoyable Easter with my new International friends.
