Study abroad almost every semester?

I'll start my studies in 2 years and I'm honestly tired of the Danish schools.

I want to travel abroad every semester or year. I do not want to be stuck in Denmark and maybe study one semester abroad. I want to study in USA, France, Spain, Jordan and there is more. But is it possible to take every semester in a new country? I have financial resources so that is not a problem.

Congratulations, you have asked the stupidest question on CC this month and that is an achievement, believe me.

No, of course you can't study abroad every semester/year. If you're sick of Denmark then study full time in the US or UK and study abroad for a year in another country. If there is anywhere else you want to go, book a hotel and go on holiday.

Thank you! You sound like a really intelligent guy! Going through your posts, you seem to be very optimistic. I feel sad for you.

The other person could have been nicer, but I don't think it's possible..(at least in the US). You should ask a counselor or advisor at your school. Good luck!

Thanks for your answer!

I've talked with a counselor. It is possible! So now it's just about planning.

Why are you listening to your counselor? He/she is wrong, trust me - it isn't possible.

Dionysus58...please just stop. This forum is all about helping people. If you think the questions are "stupid" just move on. I have asked my share of stupid questions here over the years. However, the seasoned CC posters answered with patience and respect. For that, myself and my three college age children are forever grateful.

YoungDane...I am sorry that I can't answer your question. I do not live in your country. I do not know how your educational system works. However, there is nothing wrong with the goal you are setting for yourself. Just realize that sometimes we have to compromise a bit. Do your research. Make a plan and then work your plan. Good Luck.

I don't mind helping people who need it, but I see no reason to do basic research for lazy kids who can't or won't do anything for themselves. The OP asked a (really, really stupid) question and I was generous enough to answer him. But he has chosen to ignore my answer and believe what he wants to believe, even though it's wrong - anyone who indulges this kid is a fool.

Thank you for your answer.
I have a meeting with a counselor in 2 weeks where we will make plans. I am aware that I might have to compromise a bit but that's life

Dionysus58:
Thank you for your generosity but I believe that my Danish counselor knows more than a bitter person on a forum. If you can show me that it is not possible, then please do.

How am I supposed to prove that without quoting every university website in the world? Tell me what your counselor said and I will prove them wrong.
