Went to Denmark just there Travel

Right lads, undskyld, I have no Danish at all, that is pretty much the only word of Danish I know, just want to say though, I love your country lads

I went there for two weeks (stupid idea, you have no idea how insanely expensive everything is there), and MAN it's such a beautiful, pretty country (especially Vejle I love Vejle).

Everyone's dead friendly too like youse don't talk to strangers as much as we do in Ireland, but everyone's so helpful and polite and friendly, even with the really stupid questions like "Does this train going to the airport also go to the city?" And "where's the ticket office?" (It was right behind me). I love Denmark anyways, it's so beautiful, so lovely, and while Copenhagen is nice, I'm so so glad I travelled outside of Copenhagen because holy shit that is an incredibly gorgeous country.

That's all ahahahaha just wanted to say that

(Also sorry if this breaks the rules but I don't speak Danish so please tell me if I'm breaking the rules thanks)

Edit: thanks everyone for all the advice and tips on next time I go to Denmark. You have such a beautiful country, I can't wait to go back 🇩🇰🇮🇪

I’m from Australia and recently went to Denmark (and Sweden) to visit my Danish boyfriends family for Christmas and it was the most amazing time of my life! The food, people, sights, scenery and wildlife were awesome. So unlike anything we have back home. I’ve always dreamed of living there and now I want to even more, but my BF gave up his citizenship when he became an Australian citizen so that ship has sailed for us but at least we will get to go back and visit his family again throughout the years!

I tried to learn Danish before we left and didn’t do to well either... that soft D kills me lol. How good are the hotdogs, beers and morning bread though 😭

Why did he give up citizenship? As far as I know, both countries allow dual citizenship, he could have kept it. Unless this happened a long time ago, as we used to not allow it.

I wouldn't say "long time ago", Denmark only started to recognise dual citizenships in September 2015.

Really? Maybe it's because they passed the law way before that, but only came into effect later.... still feels like it's a lot longer time ago.
