Distortion Dark
This friday you can go to the first of three planned Distortion winter parties. Distortion is the largest street festival in Denmark (and the most awesome in Scandinavia).
For 60 kroner (in-door) you get a super lineup and low prices on beer and booze! But be there early. There is only room for 500 people and more than 1000 have said yes on the Facebook invite. I'm sure even standing in line is going to be a party in itself!
Ukendt Kunster (live)
DJs:
Bwoy De Bhajan
DJ Er Du Dum Eller Hvad
Eloq
Fou Fou
Oh Boy!
Facebook-page: http://www.facebook.com/events/462378063823884
Friday 25th. Kayak Kajen under Knippelsbro from 22-04. 60 kr.
I promise to keep you updated on the next two parties!
Best,
Nanna

Cafe Spotlight #4 - Din Nye Ven
Cafe Din Nye Ven (your new friend) will be your new friend in 2013.
It's not new or fancy, but it will be there for you when you need a milkshake or a beer. Or coffee. As far as I recall you can also borrow games to play while there.
Price level is standard cafe prices. They also double as a party place!
The main reason it's featured here is that it's a highly underestimated place that I personally don't go to often enough. Plus the art in the cafe is usually above the standard cafe-art level. They have a pin board where you can put some of your own stuff, which ensures variety in the stuff that is showcased.
Klub Sshhh is the most silent clubnight in town, where some band will play an acoustic set on the small stage at Din Nye Ven. Monthly.
Every second Wednesday in the month there is an alternative music quiz, where there will be battled in knowledge about indie, psych, punk, ambient, post-punk, lo-fi, alt.country, twee, experimental, hiphop etc. (what is twee exactly?)
Address:
Din Nye Ven
Skt. Peders Stræde 34
1453 Kbh. K
Hope you have fun there,
Nanna (the last photo is just because he looks awesome)

Club-legend visit Denmark
Last summer at Distortion festival on Vor Frues Plads in central Copenhagen, the festival guests go to enjoy this guys' awesome show. He's got routine, because rumour has it that he played his first job in the 70s. Fact is that he's been running the electronic music profile on BBC1 for more than two decades now. Pete Tong will give a DJ set on Simons with Rune RK, Danish DJ. IT'S GUARANTEED TO BE AWESOME.
Best weekend wishes,

Copenhagen Opera? The Royal Theatre? Tip for cheap tickets
I just realized I completely forgot to tell you this:
Tickets to shows in the Copenhagen Opera and the Royal Theatre are super cheap (50 % off regular prices except the two most expensive ticket types) if you sign up in their student offers program.
Here's a link:
http://kglteater.dk/sarligt-for/studerende (press TILMELD DIG HER (sign up here))
Sorry it's not in Danish, but it shouldn't be a problem for most of you by now. ;)

Copenhagen Dining Week, week 7
First event this year will be Copenhagen Dining Week.
The concept is simple - go the web page www.diningweek.dk, find a restaurant with a menu you like, order tickets for a time that suits you in week 7 and voila - a night with 3 courses at a nice restaurant in Copenhagen for 200 kroner. Cheap! I went to Gefährlich with my boyfriend last year, beautiful food and very romantic evening. Definitely going again this year. I already signed up for the online ticket queue - you should do the same, as the regular ticket sale have not started yet.
Hope you find something delicious,
Nanna

Welcome and welcome back
Hi all, and welcome (back).
Soon another bunch of international students will begin their exciting DTU adventures, and if course this blog will provide them with awesome tips for practical stuff, and more importantly, tips on how to have an awesome time while studying at DTU.
Use the blog as an archive, search through some of the old posts as the non-even related posts might still be very useful.
If you come across events or tips you think I should highlight, don't hesitate to email me or post a comment. The blog achieved more than 500 reads each month, so it's going to be seen as I opt for even more readers the following semester (primarily helped by more posts, as I have just ordered a new and much faster computer than the old one I was working from, and which took more than 15 minutes to fire up)!
Can't wait to get started, so the first event will be posted right away.
All the best,
Nanna
