Hi, I’m Christian

Hello everyone and thanks for visiting my site! My name is Christian Rasnake. I am a 20-year-old New Jersey native and I attend the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. This 2019-2020 school year will be my junior year of college.

I am Majoring in Environmental Studies with a focus on sustainability and Minoring in City and Regional Planning. At UNC I am the social media manager of our university’s chapter of Spoon University, Spoon UNC (@spoonunc on Instagram), and the sustainability and sisterhood chairs of the Epsilon Beta Chapter of Chi Omega.

This upcoming fall semester I have decided to study abroad in Copenhagen through the DIS Copenhagen program, which I am super excited and, quite honestly, a bit anxious about. My studies have focused on science and the environment for the past few years and I am excited to embark on my new journey in Copenhagen, which will combine my interest in sustainability what I love the most- FOOD! I am very excited for my DIS core course “Sustainable Food: Production and Consumption”, as well as the variety of electives that I will be taking.

This blog will serve as a platform to share my abroad experiences with you all. I hope it provides you with some insight, whether you are a student who aspires to travel abroad or just one of my family members curious about what I am up to!

Please follow along as I share my highlights, struggles, thoughts and experiences during my semester in Copenhagen.
