Living Danishly with Helen Russell

New in Denmark? Or maybe you have lived here for years but are still wondering about those crazy Danes?

On April 26th we have invited Helen Russell for a Living Danishly event – speaking about the subjects YOU choose.

From preconceptions about Denmark to first impressions on arrival (the price tag! the weather!); Danish work culture; making friends; Danish culture; the infamous hygge; Danish trust; equality; the great things about living Danishly…as well as the not so great things.

Let us know what YOU’D like to hear about – and join us for an evening of Living Danishly with Helen Russell.
