Thank you, Carlota

It is indeed a pleasure to see the Marie at work.

She gave her speech in English and it was very much directed at the many foreign students presents.
In the speech she emphasized the importance of education.

For the video experts in this forum: I suggest you have a look at the regional news on TV2. In this case TV SYD. TV 2/Regionernes netTV You'll find her Saturday under the headline: Prinsessen kastede glans. - I'll leave the rest to the video experts.
Joachim and his Marie are pretty well featured in Southern Jutland! For the newsdiggers I will suggest you keep an eye on this newspaper: Jydske Vestkysten http://www.jv.dk/ You will sometimes find news, galleries and coverage here that doesn't hit the national papers.
I suggest you use the searchwords: "prins" or "prinsesse".

Thank you, Paty

Syddansk Universitet, is a regional university and as such it face competition from other universities in DK, not least from the largest cities like Århus and especially Copenhagen, where it is easier to attract the best teachers and not least guest teachers.
The problem is that many local youths prefer to study in Copenhagen, because they believe this is where the opportunities are, also in regards to networking. On the other hand few from Copenhagen would dream of studying outside Copenhagen, even though there are vacancies there and that the education is just as good.
Our Marie hopes to put focus on that issue and attract some attention to Syddansk Universitet. And she is certainly often involved with that university, now also in welcoming foreign students with a speech as we can see in the video.

There has in fact been a 12 % increase in the number of foreign students at Syddansk Universitet compared to last year. Now more than 700 students from 61 countries have started at the university.

How is Marie involved with the university? Does she give speeches at each new term or is she involved in different things during the year?
Loved her top.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #36, 2010.
Travl Princesse - Busy Princess.
Written by Henrik Salling & Ken Richter.

Who sum up a pretty busy week for our Marie. Wednesday at SDU.
Saturday at the Wadden Sea Festitval on the island of Rømø. (Okay, that's almost around the corner from Schackenborg).
Sunday at the National Flag Day.
Monday in Botanical Garden in Copenhagen and at the French embassy.

This is what she had to say at SDU:
"I developed a lot while I studied abroad (Boston and New York) and that changed me as a person. - I've never had problems studying or setteling in another country. I think that's important for your personal developement and I hope my son too would like to go abroad for a period of his life. - My life changed in earnest when I came to Denmark. Quite unexpectedly I became a Princess in Denmark and that has been a big challenge. Of course the language is diffence but I've had to learn to adjust to the climate and to a completely new word, that is the word hygge. (*) - My best advise to the students will be: Study hard but remember also to enjoy life".

(*) Hygge is a concept. Best translated with cosyness. - A feeling of wellbeing, while spending time with people you genuinely like in (and this is important) a hospitable and warm atmosphere.
The art by Thomas Kincaid epitomize to some extent the concept of "hygge" - just seen from the outside. http://static.desktopnexus.com/thumb...gthumbnail.jpg

Are you sure, that she said it like this?

According to the article she said: "Helt uventet blev jeg prinsesse i Danmark, og det har været en stor udfordring".

So the answer is yes.

[Sternchen]

Well, what did she expect, being in a relationship with a Prince of Denmark and especially after he proposed? :P

Thank you, Iceflower

Again very positive press for our Marie and not just from the local Southern Jutlandic fanpaper... I mean newspaper.
I guess that being labbled "a babe" must be a comliment. Not sure about "thin" though. - Personally I think la Marie could do with two or three kilos more.
Anyway, Southern Danish University (SDU) has, in contrast to the other universities in DK, branches in a number of towns. Now also in the town of Slagelse. - Something the good citizens are not at all displeased with, hence the very warm welcome to the fair Marie.

Thank you, Iceflower & Marika86. I knew we could count on jv.dk = Jyske Vestkysten to cover our Marie.

And believe me, we guys love curves! That I can say with 100 % certainty.
If you don't believe me, try look at the gender statistics for those watching the programmes with Nigella Lawson.
I actually find Maxima to be the most attractive of the current CP's. She looks like a woman.
