This was by far the most informative and enjoyable video about Copenhagen and Denmark that I've seen

[AmberLacerta]

Thank you so much for your video! I've just moved to Copenhagen within the program helping Ukrainian refugees, and I really appreaciate all the information you told in your video, as if I was talking to a friend who's sharing her life experience. Really cool!

[yingjianwu]

Wow thank you for making this video! I am about to go to University of Copenhagen for an exchange program in the coming year, so it's nice to get to know Denmark especially Copenhagen in a really cozy and easy way!

Thank you for a great video ☺️
I think the weather in Denmark is awsome! I love the grey days end the rain during summer

[Glanzfellchen]

Your authenticity gives this whole video and all of your talking and smiling and gesturing so much charme. You're the internet's cool tour guide now! I enjoy it very much :)

[paulcockman]

Thanks for a interesting and upbeat video, Denmark is a beautiful country, and I have always found the people so happy and friendly. And such varied environments, from Copenhagen to Skagen, always interesting.

[AllanMelsen]

wait what?!?!? it rains for 170 days in Denmark?!? LOL! I've lived here for 47 years, since birth... I think 17 days is closer to the truth...

[misscvlog]

I have not seen the mermaid in Denmark, but I have seen a copy in a place very far away. There is a resort called Danish Lagoon in Siquijor, Philippines that is designed like a theme park of HC Andersen and on the beach you will find the mermaid. The place is owned by a Danish couple.

Such an amazing and different country! Next February 2023 I'll go to Aalborg's University as an Erasmus student and I can't wait to start living there!

[estrategia-academia]

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing and taking us around Copenhagen. Will watch more!

[englishteacher]

Hi, embedding your video in our English course. Good job!

[ninaschaumann]

Great video! Just one small correction, Bakken is the oldest amusement park in the world, and Tivoli is the second oldest, pretty neat :))

[idajans]

Really good video<3 and the formality level in the school system is really different from USA. In Denmark teacher are referred to by their first name instead of Mr. and Mrs., which is something I find really nice.

Wow!! I am an older American and I was in Copenhagen a few years back with one of my kids who was working there for a short time. I learned more about the city and country from your video than I did when I was there. I enjoyed my visit a lot but I was struck by several things which over time I have come to a better perspective about. One, it did seem that most people out and about were young people 25-35 years old or so. It also seemed that everyone had money. I didn't see anyone who looked strapped for cash at least in appearance. It was very neat and clean and I found the people to be friendly and welcoming and I never met anyone who couldn't speak English. It had a bit of the same vibe as you get in a upscale planned community in the US where everyone appears to be similar. That alone can make you feel comfortable if you too fit that demographic which I did. It did feel crowed and the Airbnb we had was very nice but very small especially the bathroom. Last but not least I was blown away by the number of bikes. Bikes were literally everywhere by the hundreds or thousands. Anyway thanks for the tour and facts about your home country. You have a talent for doing this. I wish you well!!

[olivegarden]

Thank you! Really enjoyed the video, the city is beautiful and it’s pleasant to listen to u🐰

[rhondagover]

Thanks for this, I will be in your beautiful city in August, can't wait.

16:07 As an American I find it interesting that the subway announcement is in English. Maybe it was made in Danish too, but not in the video? Really enjoyed your video.

I love Denmark. I was born in Europe (-no country name-), however, I have been living for years of more than half of my life in countries like Mexico, Panama, The Philipines, MEXICO (Resident), China (to become a resident next year), and Vietnam which is on my TOP # 1 Gorgeous and Happiest people in the world. Now, Denmark Is actually the ONLY ONE country I consider the best among all European countries in Any Aspect of social, environmental, economic, business, life, and so on. I love Denmark and surprisingly I'll go back to DK by January and I'll be living and working for one year in Aarhus. Stay Blessed DK Stay Blessed World!
