I have chosen <strong>friluftsliv<\/strong> (outdoor life) as my main subject. We canoe and kayak a lot, and we also do some climbing. Besides, we go on a lot of excursions and cook our food in the open.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the best thing about attending a h\u00f8jskole?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the best thing is the social <strong>f\u00e6llesskab<\/strong> (community, togetherness) that you get here. You really feel that you create a common space. No matter whether you\u2019ve talked with someone a lot or just a few times \u2013 when you\u2019ve been here together with another person, you\u2019ve got something special together. I think that\u2019s quite unique.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who\u2019re you and why are you here?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My name\u2019s Louise and I started at Ry H\u00f8jskole since my main subject is journalism, and I\u2019d love to get admission to the school of journalism afterwards, so I\u2019ve been goal-directed in order to become a skilled journalist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Could you please describe a typical day at the <em>h\u00f8jskole<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a typical day there are 500 <strong>udvalg<\/strong> (committee) meetings [<em>she laughs<\/em>], sports, activities, <strong>fordybelse<\/strong> (absorption) in some subject, and then all the outdoor things: Getting out and sitting around a <strong>b\u00e5l<\/strong> (fire, fireplace), or playing volleyball or something else. So there\u2019s a lot of variation! Really many things have been squeezed into one day, even when you sometimes think it\u2019s impossible!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who\u2019re you, and what brought you here?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My name is Arendse, and I started at Ry mainly because I had been visiting the place before and got a really good gut feeling. I didn\u2019t know exactly what I was going to do here; in the first place I wanted to write; now I\u2019m at <strong>friluftsliv<\/strong> [FREEloftsleev], and I\u2019ve been taught song writing and \u2013 a lot of subjects I didn\u2019t imagine would mean anything to me, but they do that now\u2026 I think that\u2019s very much what it\u2019s really all about: That you get room to develop yourself, and a lot of inspiration from other persons. You get some thoughts you hadn\u2019t thought before; you discover things you didn\u2019t know existed\u2026 That\u2019s the great thing about <strong>h\u00f8jskolen<\/strong> (the <strong>h\u00f8jskole<\/strong>), I think.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What kinds of new things did you discover?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve discovered that things don\u2019t have to be in a certain way in order to be right. I feel I\u2019m finding something every day\u2026 Take for instance Inge. She\u2019s our art teacher. She had been working as a nurse for 10 years before finding out she wanted to be a <strong>kunstl\u00e6rer<\/strong> (art teacher). It is quire inspiring that you can <strong>oml\u00e6gge<\/strong> (change, rearrange) your life like that, and discover it quite late. It\u2019s great that you don\u2019t have to think the whole time, that everything doesn\u2019t have to be like this or that, and that you\u2019re just supposed to try out a lot of things to find out what lights your own fire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Have you got some advice for people considering to spend a term at a <em>h\u00f8jskole<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Daniel, Louise and Arendse:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ryhojskole.dk\">Ry<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"350\" height=\"234\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/danish\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2012\/08\/h\u00f8jskoleelever-350x234.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image tmp-hide-img\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/danish\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2012\/08\/h\u00f8jskoleelever-350x234.jpg 350w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/danish\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2012\/08\/h\u00f8jskoleelever-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/danish\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/30\/2012\/08\/h\u00f8jskoleelever-1024x685.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><p>A few months ago, I met three students at Ry H\u00f8jskole for a chat\u2026 Who\u2019re you and what are you doing here at Ry H\u00f8jskole?
