Personal comments
I was often at the Student house for the international student night.
Near the round tower, it was not a bad place to get to meet others like you and share your experiences. There is also Vega which is a night club in a some what dangerous part of Copenhagen, but the music and entertainment was very nice. The Jazz festival in Summer is not to be missed and the Christmas beers and festivities known as Christmas lunches are something all foreigners can enjoy.
