International Students at Havnebadet

International students at the University of Copenhagen relaxed after an intense first week of language study, as they put their feet up at the Havnebadet Friday.

With sun, the cool Copenhagen water, and people from around the world to talk to, the event was perfect to soothe away a tough week of Danish language courses.

The University Post caught up with some of the students, to ask their views of the course, the city, and Denmark itself.
