The journey and day 1:
It started in Greenland, where I live. I had to go to an obligatory meeting in Denmark about the exchange year.
I left Greenland the 4th of July and now knew that I first would come back next year.

In the airplane to Denmark I sat beside my old classmate Maya, who also travelled alone. Vivian my little friend was also leaving Greenland alone.

When I arrived in Denmark my aunt came to pick me up in the airport. We went to my aunt's place and I stayed there until the 6th of July.

From the 6th-8th of July I went to a departure briefing with lot of other becoming exchange students.

The 21st of July I was going to the airport in Copenhagen. It was the day, I was going to Australia. In the airport I met the other young people, who also was going on exchange in Australia. We checked in and then said goodbye to our families. I said goodbye to my father, my mother couldn't take a holiday from work, so I said goodbye to her in Greenland.

The flight to Singapore:
The flight to Singapore took 12 hours, a very long travel. I flight with one of the best business Singapore Airlines. Well, in the flight we got food, and had the opportunity to watch different things in the little television. You could also play, like it was an old gameboy, very nice and cool.
We landed in Singapore and in the airport you could feel how dizzy it was. Out side it was 30 degree celsius and it was in the middle of the night. Very strange.

The flight to Australia:
We waited in Singapore for about 4 hours. While we waited we walked a bit round in the airport and got some feet  massage in some cool chairs.
And then it was time to go to our gate, me and 5 other exchange students from Denmark. We checked in and got some papers we should write on and give in the airport in Melbourne.
The flight to Melbourne took about 7 hours and we were quite tired. The plane was still a plane from Singapore Airlines. The journey wasn't that comfortable, because you were tired and couldn't sit as you wanted too, but I survived that. I skipped a meal, because I hadn't the appetite to eat...

We landed in Melbourne, and I took a picture of the sign of the welcome sign. We went to take our luggage, but we had to get through some security. After we had taken our things, we went to toilet and then though the last security, where they used dogs too.
At last we came into the welcoming hall, and there stood my counselors and some Rotarians. Very nice.
I said goodbye to the danish people and we went to the car. We drove with the car in one hour and then      we arrived at my counselors house. The Rotarians, who was in the airport to welcome me, came for a copper, and we talked a bit. Very nice and comfortable.

Then we got to sleep, and that was the journey to Australia.

Day 1:
I woke up after I slept for about 9 hours and woke at 8 am. I got some breakfast and then took a shower, I learned the difference between a bath and a shower.
Later on I went out shopping with my friendly counselor Ann, who I stay at right now.
I got photographed to my coming bus card, and then we went to the shop and bought some food.

When we went home we ate some warm lunch. We also went to the garden and watched some birds.
I tried some of my school uniform, and it wasn't pretty, but everyone's walking in them, so it'll be alright.

The birds here are very colorful, that's nice to see and a bit strange.

I took a nap, because I was tired and I think I still got some jet lag- not funny to have, but normal.
After the nap, we went to see some kangaroos, but the watching place was closed, so we stopped by the road. I saw 3 kangaroos, wild kangaroos, that was fun to see. I also saw a dead wombat, it was hit by a car, sad.

Then after we'd been out for a drive, we went back home and ate some delicious dinner, lamb.
After that, I went to do some Facebook, be connected to the world.
And later on we were in the living room and relaxed. I tried Crown princess Mary's favorite sweet, I think- Tim Tams. And then we went to bed.

I slept for about 4-5 hours and then I couldn't sleep, I woke up at 1.30 am. My jet lag.
Then I lay in the bed and used some time on that.

P.s
I have some pictures, so you can see the journey, but I forgotten my thing, which moves my pictures from my camera to the laptop, so you'll see them later.




Rejsen & Dag 1:
Det startede i Kalaallit Nunaat, hvor jeg kommer fra. Jeg skulle til et obligatorisk møde i Danmark, der handlede om mit kommende udvekslings år.
Jeg rejste fra Kalaallit Nunaat den 4. Juli og vidste nu, at jeg først ville være tilbage om ihvertfald et år.

I flyet til Danmark sad jeg siden af min gamle klassekammerat Maya, som også rejste alene. Vivian min lille ven rejste også alene fra Kalaallit Nunaat.

Da jeg kom til Danmark kom min faster og hentede mig. Vi tog hen til min faster og var der til den 6. Juli.

Fra den 6.-8. Juli var jeg til afrejsebriefing med en masse andre kommende udvekslings studenter.

Den 21. Juli tog vi til lufthavnen i København. Det var den dag jeg skulle rejse til Australien. I lufthavnen så jeg også andre mennesker, der skulle udveksles i Australien. Vi checkede ind og sagde farvel til vores familier. Jeg sagde farvel til min far, min mor kunne ikke få ferie, så hende sagde jeg farvel til i Grønland.

Flyveturen til Singapore:
Flyveturen til Singapore tog 12 timer, en meget lang tur. Jeg fløj med en af verden bedste flyselskaber Singapore Airlines. Nå, i flyet fik vi mad og noget at drikke og havde en masse valgmuligheder i hvad vi kunne se i det lille TV. Man kunne også spille på TV'et, det var ligesom en gammel Gameboy, smart og sejt.
Vi landede i Singapore og i lufthavnen kunne du mærke fugtigheden. Uden for var det 30 grader og det var midt om natten. Meget mystisk og underligt.

Flyveturen til Australien:
Vi ventede i Singapore i 4 timers tid. Mens vi ventede gik vi lidt rundt i lufthavnen og fik fod massage på nogle massagestole.
Og så var det tid til at gå hen til vores gate, mig og 5 andre danske udvekslings studenter. Vi checkede in og fik nogle papirer som vi skulle skrive på og give i Melbourne's lufthavn.
Flyveturen til Australien tog 7 timer og vi var ret trætte. Flyet var stadig fra det samme selskab Singapore Airlines. Rejsen var ikke særlig behagelig, fordi man var træt og kunne ikke sidde som man ville, men jeg overlevede. Jeg sagde nej tak til et måltid, fordi jeg ikke havde appetitten til at spise noget...

Vi landede i Melbournes lufthavn, og jeg tog af velkommen skiltet. Vi gik hen for at hente vores bagage, men skulle først gennem security. Efter vi havde hentet vores bagage, tog vi på wc og hen til den sidste security, hvor de brugte hunde.
Endelig kom vi til velkomsthallen, og der stod mine kontaktpersoner og nogle Rotarianere. Meget dejligt.
Jeg sagde farvel til danskerne og gik hen til bilen. Vi kørte en times tid i bil hen til mine kontaktpersoners hjem. Rotarianerne, som også var i lufthavnen kom hen for noget te, mens vi sad og snakkede lidt. Meget hyggeligt og rart.

Så gik vi i seng, og det var rejsen til Australien.

Dag 1:
Jeg vågnede efter at have sovet i omkring 9 timer og vågnede ved 8 tiden. Jeg fik noget morgenmad og tog et brusebad. Jeg lærte forskellen mellem et bad og brusebad.
Senere gik jeg ud og købte ind sammen med min søde kontaktperson Ann, der hvor jeg også befinder mig nu.
Jeg blev fotograferet til mit kommende buskort, og så tog vi ind i butikken, for at købe noget mad.

Da vi kom hjem igen fik vi noget varm middagsmad. Vi gik også ud i baghaven og så på fugle.
Jeg prøvede min skoleuniform, og den var ikke så pæn, men alle skal jo gå i dem, så det gør ikke noget.

Fuglene her er meget farverige, det fedt at se og lidt underligt.

Jeg tog mig en middagslur, fordi jeg var træt og stadig havde/ har jet lag- det ikke sjovt, men normalt.
Efter middagsluren, tog vi ud og så på kænguruer, men udkigs stedet var lukket, så vi stoppede siden af vejen. Jeg så 3 kænguruer, vilde kænguruer, det var sjovt. Jeg så også en død wombat, den var blevet ramt af en bil, synd.

Efter bilturen, kørte vi hjem og fik noget lækkert aftensmad, lam.
Efter det, gik jeg på Facebook, blive genforenet med verden igen.
Senere var vi inde i stuen og hyggede. Jeg prøvede Kronprinsesse Mary's ynglings slik, tror jeg nok- Tim Tams. Og så gik vi i seng.

Jeg sov ca. 4-5 timer og så kunne jeg ikke sove længere, vågnede kl. 1.30 om natten. Mit jet lag.
Så brugte jeg noget tid på at ligge lidt i sengen og slappe af.

P.s
Jeg har nogle billeder, så man kan se turen, men jeg har glemt mit overførselstick til mit kamera, så I får billederne at se lidt senere.
