FSP OF FREIBURG
04.08.2014While visiting Ørestaden we took the group for a visit to the state of the art Tietgen student housing.
Their own students are trained to tell the extraordinary story of the building, and life in and around it!

We'll stay in contact!

COPENHAGEN – THE HAPPY CAPITAL
28.01.2014'Like a lot of Copenhageners, I expect, I feel happiest on my bike. It's such a privilege to live in a city where you can cycle wherever you need to go.
