Hey.
I have already spent 3 days in TEKO. The first impression of the school is amazing.
We were introduced the buildings yesterday. They have 4 buildings for different purposes. They have lot of equipment, for sewing, printing, knitting, testing the fabrics etc. It looks ideal place for studying fashion design.
My first day was relatively short. We were shown TEKO inside out. According to the international office TEKO is Scandinavian best and biggest design school for fashion and furniture.
Then we had a small lunch break (free sandwich from TEKO :) ) and little introduction how to use their Online Intranet system.There was a way to turn their page into English, but somehow clicking around it always went back to Danish. (Hint hint- study Danish?)
The second day we had a tour around Herning with 2 lovely girls.(TEKO students, Hungarian and Lithuanian)
The city is nice, but quite small.
Today we already had full- day studying. We had to get to university by 8.20. It is hard if you are used to go to university for 11 or earliest 9.
In the first class we had an introduction for our project. It looks like lots of fun with even more hard work. We also had introduction on theories how to create a target market and Designer DNA.
We are going to make our project in groups. Everyone seems very motivated and excited to start. It´s nice. Belgium girls in my group want to meet at 10.00 to go to town and make research etc. That is extreme activity, especially for me. I love my sleep in the mornings. On the other hand I wanted to get use to the early mornings anyway, so why not to start...NOW.
In the evening I went to Danish Language Centre. Yes, I am going to study Danish, 2x week. There is a small chance to be able to speak conversational level by end of the half year. I guess it is demands lot of effort and commitment. I go for it. Thumbs up!
Fact about Denmark/Herning I have found out in those 3 days:
People use bicycles. (instead of buses)
Bicycle lines are sometimes as wide as car lines.
If you work you can pay tax from as little as 8% up to 70%, depends how much you earn.
You need CPR number if you want to use anything in this place. (Buy a TV; go to a library, etc)
Boys wear jeans, trousers in their socks.
Weather changes all the time. (It is very windy here, so the sunny warm weather can turn into dark cold raining weather in minutes, vice versa)
