Copenhagen Essentials

Morten E. Wulff Jul 30th

  1. Don’t be surprised if your appointment arrives on a bike - try to do the same.
  2. The Danes are a straightforward bunch, they call a spade a spade.
  3. Time on your hands at lunch? Grab a towel and go for a swim in the Øresund with the rest of the city.
  4. Flying visit? Kastrup airport has excellent meeting facilities.
  5. Our favourite Danish word is hygge. There’s no direct translation but the closest is “cosy”. Find your hygge place in CPH.
  6. Forget taxis, the only way to explore Copenhagen is by bike.
  7. For a real slice of Danish culture, we recommend you visit Christiana during the day.
  8. Like Swedes and Norwegians, the Danish are very practical and like their Flemish neighbours they are refreshingly open-minded.
  9. Forget air kissing, a firm handshake will suffice for him or for her.
  10. Ida Davidsen serves the best open sandwiches in Scandinavia, and if you’re lucky, Ida herself will stop for a chat. Order the “Finn Ziegler”.
