I am a Game Designer, but I do not make a living out of it as of yet, so I usually round up with part time jobs. I am looking for a new city to travel to and live in, as my main work is done remotely.
Mi próximo destino:
Denmark - Desde Oct 2024 Hasta Sep 2026

Descripción
as of 2024 I am 24 years old, i am trying my best to make my passion also my career in Game Design. I keep working part-time to make a living and sustain my projects.
I' ve always wanted to live abroad but for many reasons I always postponed.
My main destinations right now are Barcelona and Copenhagen, id like to travel to different cities and live them (not as a tourist) before I make a choice to settle in a new one.
I think the best type of environment I could hope for to begin with would be in Hostels as I would use mostly English as a language rather than the Native language of that country which I wouldn't know at first.

Que habilidades tienes?
I am very versatile (adjective used to make it sound better when you can't do anything)
I love to arrange game-like activities for groups.
I have a diploma in Human Sciences (which some years ago used to enable to teach in primary and middle school) now I would need a higher degree which I used to want to pursue (in Finland) but I ended up on a different path.
I am currently studying and working as a game designer. My interests are mainly in social and educational games. I spent every summer since I can remember with my childhood group of friends and cousins/sibilings playing and creating games together, and being one of the older ones I was usually the one they would look up to and rolling with it I became some sort of mother of the group, cooking for all of us and trying to moderate quarrels and fights between some, and I was also trusted by the parents to look after the young ones when we were going by ourselves further from home.
I love all team sports, but I mainly play Volleyball.
Weirdly enough i can make cocktails (as I've worked in a bar) but I do not drink alcohol.
I also love Role playing games and I DM for a couple campaigns for two groups of friends as of today.

Skills I don't have :
I'm not very handy with tools and fix/crafts myself but I can easily follow instructions.
Also I was told by a host that was disappointed I didn't have a funny Italian accent so keep that in mind.

Sooo, i don't wanna sound cheesy, i hate these things but if i had to get over my dislike for the reviews system it would be for this one.

1) The place : A big and modern suburban home, has all the appliances you didn't know you needed and more (even the neighbours say they have everything) i.e. it has speakers in every room so you can wake up… read more and pee while listening to your favourite music, very relaxing indeed, and if you wake up in a bad mood you can go down to the beach for a skinny dip in the ocean to reboot your system for a fresh start. The town is roughly 40 minutes away from the city center (Copenhagen) and bus stop is 2 min walk from home.

Now the people : Dorte and Soren as well as their kids have all been exchange students in their youth and know exactly how you might feel as a stranger in a foreign country. Be prepared when you arrive and know what you want for breakfast because first thing first they will bring you to the groceries to get something that you like (and this sums up the approach of making you feel at home, starting from the small and personal habits like breakfast).
Disclaimer : many of the following things will be very true for both of them but for the purpose of the format of this review i split it into two.

2) Dorte : ALWAYS available for everything you need, both material and abstract, since day 1 she listened to what my situation was and helped me in every way she could (i wanted to move to CPH and find a job). She has hosted many exchange students before and is genuinely curious and interested in other cultures and people in general. She will notice and appreciate your skills/traits and she will understand you. She will make you feel at home, safe and cared for. (i was able to stay longer than planned, also shout out to her brother who was supposed to get my room but slept on the sofa instead, thank you Henrik)

3) Soren will show you everything you need to make things easier and more effective, ways to navigate the city, tools to get your work done, and whatever problem you might have he will find a solution or even better will give you the best tools or informations so you can do it yourself. And when he talks to you about the projects and the work you do you will see that its not like a boss explaining how to do your job but you will hear the passion and the projects that they have for the house and it personally made me reflect on how i want to have my house in the future. He will drive you around if you need a lift, will tell you about all his trips and experiences while cooking or having a beer, he will share the simple pleasures of life or if on a special occasion he has a few extra drinks he might get into deeper emotional stuff.

4) The Work & the experience : work is work but its not hard when you feel part of the family and you are not alienated from what you are doing. You will be guided if you need and independent if you can, you will see the results and the product of your work and be proud of it, and when you are done you will have a beer and a nicely cooked meal, they will adapt to your dietary customs be it vegan or meat eating and you will eat ice cream in front of a warm fireplace, the definition of "Hygge". You will meet the rest of their family which will share the combined qualities of their parents and more. I could go on but since i will see them again in the near future (i moved to Copenhagen) i dont want to be too embarassed after they read this so i will end it here.
But i will add a disclaimer : How you are as a person will influence your experience, they go to work daily and relax at night so you will have some time alone, you cannot expect the "entertainment" to be something that is given to you, you will have to find things you want to do by yourself.

p.s. its now 4am, the lounge of the hostel is deserted and the cleaning lady is eyeing me down so she can clean the floor under my table, i will do all of us a favor and go to sleep. day 39 in vikings land, long live the Dannebrog.
