  • its look delicious.

  • I found Copenhagen cheap compared to Oslo.

  • I went there in the summer. Wonderful city. Sweden in the form of Malmo is just about 20, 30 minutes away.

  • I´ve never been to Europe but i have been looking a lot of videos of european cities and for me it seems that they all look the same but they are very beautifull and clean, the worst thing and that they have on common too (apart from the architecture) is the weather!

  • @gerajmar I think it's a problem of your eyes/brain. I see a lot of differences.

  • I would really like to go to Copenhagen and swim in that pool. must be really nice to swim in a harbor. I would love to get me some Smorrebrod :)

  • Kangaroo tastes good by the way.

  • Why the announcers are Kangaroos...hop hop hop...

  • I wanna be there, I love the images, I'm drawn to it, it's such a different place from what I know... but just for like 3 days - I don't fair well under grey skies for long lol

  • It's all soo true (:

  • bridge between Scandinavia and Europe? hahahahha stupidest thing i ever herd, what continent does Sweden, Norway and Finland belong to then? Asia?

  • @vaultkeeper2 Well yeah, but unlike Denmark those countries aren't attached to the rest of Europe, hence the bridge!

  • @MikeLtheSoulChild Arent they? Ever heard of Russia?

  • @vaultkeeper2 That's nice except Russia is not part of Europe! It belongs to Asia

  • @vaultkeeper2 That's nice except Russia is not part of Europe!

  • @MikeLtheSoulChild its a part of both Europe and Asia, there is a huge part of Russia in Europe, their capital Moscow is in Europe for example, its the largest European city.

  • @MikeLtheSoulChild the border between Europe and Asia is at the Ural mountains, all parts of Russia and Kazakhstan on the left part of the Ural mountains is European and has always been, that includes the part of Russia that borders to the Scandinavian countries

  • @vaultkeeper2 That's sort of a grey area then, if the whole country is not part of europe is it then european? One can argue for one or the other, but it's difficult to reach an agreement, could russia be part of the EU for example? So I don't think it takes anything out of her statement, that DK is the bridge between scandinavia and europe, certainly it's not an obvious mistake, but a matter of interpretation.

  • @MikeLtheSoulChild a country can be both European and Asian at the same time, other examples is Kazhakstan and Turkey. Yes, i agree, Russia is not like the other European countries, it would never be a part of the EU and its politics are corrupt unlike the rest of Europe. And Scandinavia is and has always been the countries Sweden, Denmark and Norway, its because the languages are very simular, jag förstår danska mycket bra

  • @vaultkeeper2 hehe jeg forstår overhovedet ikke svensk!

  • I want to get into this kind of work, making blogs o places to travel.

    But I hear Travel & Tourism is tough to get into.

  • jazz? wtf.. no COPENHELL is better... and sorry but it is not smorrebrot... but smørrebrød

    can you say : rød grød med fløde?

    mean danes is those old ones

  • I have never met a mean Dane...the nicest people ever. Love from the US!

  • Copenhagen by night?

    Search for "The Inituition - Copenhagen By Night"

    Music and pictures!!

  • This video actually sucks.. I'm danish and i visit copenhagen not alot, but sometimes in the years coming by :).. It's a lovely place to walk around in, you couldn't really ask for more..

    Tivoli is classy' and extremely well for both children and grownups, it's very very pretty in the winter!

    While walking on "Strøget" (Main area) you will see alot of different people which is so nice, thumbs up peeps.. And thumbs up for copenhagen!..

    I can also declare that stockholm is a nice city too!

  • My dad is pakistani and he used to live Copenhagen he could only speak english and they gave him a job at a hotel.  He moved to Rosengård

  • Comment removed

  • @27twentyseven27 Americans are fat and mad about their guns. And their women will only date you, if you are rich. I'm genralizing very much here I know...but so are you about us Danes.

  • @MichaelHundige Most citizens of Denmark are racist.

  • @beo191 Okay, that's a serious claim. Then give me some serious evidence to back up your claim instead of just repeating what others have said so far. Give me some statistics or a survey of some sort. If you can't provide that I can't take you seriously.

  • @beo191 That's such a huge load of shit! I'm guessing your stating this because of Dansk Folkeparti right???

  • Hah. This sums up Denmark, or Copenhagen, better than i could. And im a local.

  • I have lived in Copenhagen. To be honest, it's very boring after about a week. If you go to Scandinavia, it is etter to go to Stockholm or Oslo.

  • I LIVE IN USA AND I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH NORDIC COUNTRY IS BEST? I AM LOOKING TO MAYBE HAVE A 2ND HOME IN A NORDIC COUNTRY WHERE THERES PLENTY OF PRETTY WHITE WOMEN AND NO NON WHITES. I AM LOOKING AT ICELAND, NORWAY, FINNLAND. I DO NOT LIKE BIG CITIES AS I AM A COUNTRY BOY. SO, IF ANYONE OVER THERE KNOWS WHICH NORDIC COUNTRY WOULD BE RIGHT FOR ME, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT.

  • I HOPE THEY DON'T MESS IT ALL UP WITH ALLOWING NIGGERS IN IT TO TAKE IT OVER.

  • Im German and I lived in Copenhagen for a year. It truly is a beautiful and great city, no doubt about that. But some things the woman in the video says are wrong: Copenhagen ist fucking expensive (10€ for a plate of nachos!?) and Danish is very easy to learn, at least for Germans, because it doesnt really have any grammar at all. It is true though that Danes are not very extroverted, quite the contrary, that combined with the strong racism there makes it hard to stay for a long time!

  • @Gruenfuchs True that Danes are quite introverted, but not all of us are racists. I bet there are racists among the German population as well. Don't make it sound like a unique Danish trait. Ignorant people exist everywhere.

  • @MichaelHundige

    Especially in Denmark

  • @MichaelHundige

    Most Danes are prejudiced, though. I have lived in many countries, and Denmark was the most xenophobic

  • Hahaha.. Press 8 for diss!

  • Its interesting to observe or rather hear about her observations of the danes. I am myself a proud dane and I must admit that it can sometimes be quite hard to share with others how the danes are because its difficult to observe yourself without having a mirror to see yourself through.

    But one thing that is important to notice is that when you ask another person to evaluate you, they will do it from their own perspective. An Italian observer will likely see something else than a German one.

  • I LOL'ed so hard when she stated that, you need to get danes to drinking, to get them out of there shells.. It is so true.. !!

  • hahha they drink... u dont wanna drink with danes hahah NICE

  • Are they beautiful people, or do they just look more beautiful once you've been drinking some?

  • @sunnchilde of course we're beautiful

  • If You want to see something from the true Copenhagen.

    youtube.com/watch?v=nuhrXq_pT2­Y

  • Beautiful city and a pleasant video :)

    That jazz combo was awful though. xDDDD

  • I love Copenhagen in spite of this video

  • I like the Way she reiterates that it has good looking pepole , makes it seem as if the rest of the WHOLE WORLD has ugly people living .......Very Rude .

  • @hotshots80 No, she meant that the average of beautiful people is very high, but in the rest of the world of course there are beautiful ones. Everyone's talking about Italian girls, but if You come to Italy ,You will can see that there are more beautifu girls in Denmark than in Italy :)

  • why is the pictures so grey

  • @MightyMage2 denmark is grey sadly

  • @MightyMage2 Cloudy.. Denmarks pictures is nearly always grey :-)

  • WTF, we aren't obsessed with "smørrebrød" and we dont drink that much...

    btw. you should probarely aim to come in the start of july, that way you can come to Roskilde Festivalen :)

  • @lortlortable we don't drink that much? we drink alot! - we can never have enough! :) and I really don't think that the Roskilde Festival supports your oppinion :)

  • beautiful city (:

  • Copenhagen is ridiculously expensive, this chick is talking shite!

  • Nothing she says is true. I don't know where she's talking about, but it's not Copenhagen.

  • @vonkleve haha u are from Sweden. U gyes have a muslim problem

  • @vonkleve

    You stole this quote from one of those bearded imams

  • i cant wait to go there in summer!

  • Guess she never visited CPH, that's a green screen lol 0:07

  • @nice4607 I hear you cut yourself i feel sorry for you and your depression, seek help. how come you cry all the time? remember to shift accounts when you write the exact same thing. you're making it too easy for us. justice is coming to you and your aka's i will personally confront you one day. I've got a lot of people searching right now. Look behind you, cause one day..........VGH, MUNK, MEGAKAPSER, NICE, MSMADS, GSTVNETORK, KARINA83, BANGLADESH are the same person, I will find you one day

  • Copenhagen is a provincial village compared to Stockholm, the Capital of Scandinavia.

  • @benhuoh

    cph is nicer and cleaner ! - "stockholm - the capital of scandinavia" hah - only the swedes call it that .. you probably inveted it !

  • i live in greece ,but i want to live thereeeeeeeee,or in any northern europe country

    i hate greeece!

  • We are not that bad when it comes too drinking XD

  • @tinkernator You're the racist here i can hear, so you don't belong in Denmark then

  • @tinkernator

    shitty , arrogant , ignorant fuckhole comment ! AVOID.

  • @theKARSE agree with you, summertime is great here

  • @theKARSE why is it so glum in Copenhagen?

  • @DogFlavor It's not. He's kidding. As she said in the video, -you need to have a sense of humor.^^

  • @Begotchi maybe you are the one who needs a sense of humor? maybe?

  • @DogFlavor Best defense is attack.....

  • @Begotchi the point is... I was joking from the start! jeez.

  • @DogFlavor You must be a very bored person.^^

  • @DogFlavor Or.. Maybe you are just really bad at making jokes..x]

  • @Begotchi most likely!

  • Come to Glud instead, it's great!

  • yup, we danes need alcohol to open up... but you dont have to wait for long for us to find some alcohol...

  • Such an ugly woman! Beautiful country though.

  • @ElisabethYskes correction: ugly, overweight, fat rude and drunk people, yes that's you.

  • @ElisabethYskes haha i thought the irish were known 2 drink the most

  • The danes voted against the whale petition, cuz we respect it being apart of Greenland/iceland/faroes culture aslong it happens under controlled eu rules.

    what we dont like is asian fishing fleets doing it on mass-scale.

  • THE SLAUGHTER HAS BEGUN: Ignoring the protests and defying the world 60 whales killed these days in FAROE ISLANDS. You Danish, don´t support them!

  • I love how everyone's like oh you drink soo much.. but yeah we do xD

  • so how much money I need for food and hotel for a week?

  • I'd recommend Aarhus / Vejle for studying ~

    CPH is widely known for being full of weirdos & pollution (see connection with sweeden) anyhows mainland is better

  • Horrible guide.. People should watch some other guides. :)

  • this tourist guide is Horrible...who makes a Tourist guide in the autumn???

  • you are very right  about it. I don't know how it will be in the reality, but it does look very gray to me also.

  • Haha, the paper guy at 00.27 is really....what can you say....forward.., he smacked my butt once with a paper because i didn't wanted one.

  • I live your video very much. Your comments are very interesting. It's as if we were there going here and there hanging around in the city of Copenhagen.

    Welll done. Suddenly, I feel like going there.Thank you very much for this beautiful video

  • Thank you for making this video of your trip to Denmark. It is always nice to get some criticism and feedback, as well as see what an outsider thinks of us Danes. Danish people are as you said, probably not the most out going people, IF you do not know them, but are never shy to help others. Just get them a bit drunk and you'll see them change. I promise :-)

  • Want to visit denmark .But it will take a time.

  • cant wait to visit Denmark.. anyone have any suggestions of things to do there in August?

  • Comment removed

  • @GR8DIVINE1 there is always something to do during the summer in Copenhagen. shopping, stay on the beach, sailing and partying. whatever you like. it is a very beautiful and happy city.

  • @lilleliloh thanks for responding.. can't wait till i go it looks like i will have a lot of fun there

  • @GR8DIVINE1 August is a really good time to go. It is probably the time of year where the weather is best.. If you go to Copenhagen there is Tivoli which is a must see I guess. There are all sorts of things going on all year. Denmark is really small so you can also easilly visit other places. Aarhus, second largest city has a lot like the old town, well preserved medieval town. Randers has the indoor rainforrest (only 50km north of Aarhus) and there is much more to see, spread out all over :)

  • @w0ll3sup3r cheers mate will look into those

  • @w0ll3sup3r You have a wonderful capital but actually i rather visit Stockholm! But thats just my opinion! But still you have a very beautiful capital!!!!

  • @GR8DIVINE1 Well... I'm not sure, but i think in August, there's alot of viking festivals. I really recommend them.

  • Take Reverb on your next vacation--a must read in your travel bag about a master musician who learns to love someone other than himself. See reviews and preview on reverbnovel or jcafesin website...

  • haha it's sound so funny when she talks danish.. come to denmark it's a wonderful land, you will love it.. i live here, and i love it!

  • Great place, agree with u

  • So cool that people are talking about Danish, sweet but yea ^^

  • Super! Excellent and interesting presentation! Thanks for this video!

  • I am a Dane, and I am very disappointed with what especially OhSleeperAwake writes about my people. Therefore I tell you, if you want to study here (especially in Aarhus where I am) write to me. I am a part of Aarhus University mentor programme, and I love to meet new non-Danes.

  • @Kimse84 do u know Copenaghen?i know pretty well aarhus(studied there).can u tell me the main difference between Copen. and Aarhus? for example some people from Copen. told me that people in Copen. are less seriouse and more open mind than in Jutland! other people say it is not tue cause dk is small country so there are not so mach difference as in a big country as Germany or spain!second is it much bigger than Aarhus Copenaghen? is it double than Aarhus?

    Vengling Hilsen fra India!

  • @RacofItaly CPH is at least four times bigger than Aarhus. The main difference between people from Jutland and Sealand (CPH) is spending albeit it is only a stereotype. People from Jutland are said to keep their wallets in their pockets, while people of Sealand are big spenders. People from Jutland are also more provincial since the only real metropolis or big city is Copenhagen.

  • @RacofItaly Copen is more fast going and more mad over time spand on getting places, and money is a big thing there .... Aahus are more easy going people, money not the biggest thing and faster to get arund !

    Jutland people are just more down to the earth then them from Copenhaven !

  • @Kimse84 I haven't read the article yet but I agree with the previous comment that Danes are one of the friendliest people in the world. I am lucky to have one. I am a Filipino and I think Danes are one of the coolest.

  • @ringer100982 Thank you for your thoughts about Danes. One of my best friends is Colombian. Another Bulgarian and a third Spanish. People are different yet similar. The similarity stressed by one of the other commentators were wrong. I sincerely believe so.

  • Obsessed with food and alcohol. You got it all wrong lady!

  • damn i lolled when she tried to say smørrebrød,, og ja jeg er dansk,, :-)

  • its a fking nightmare. i went there for 6 months, there is nothing you can do to get danish people out of their shells!

  • @OhSleeperAwake do you mean they're cold and very serious people?

  • @OhSleeperAwake all scandinavians are pretty shy and awkward and shy naturally..

  • @OhSleeperAwake you didn't go drinking, huh...

  • @OhSleeperAwake wrong, 

  • well i'm planning to study in copenhagen, but i feel kind a dissapointed after watching this video... everything in the video looks so gray...

  • @ezerinis dont go i went for 6 months and the only friends i made were other foreigners too. the danish people are so closed off and they dont chat and talk. its very hard to get along there. my husband is danish but half english and he lived there when he was a kid , he agrees with me 100%. go somewhere warm where the people are warm too.

  • @OhSleeperAwake hawaii would be a nice place to study, but it is a bit too expansive :) what about sweden norway or finland? what can you tell me about it?

  • @ezerinis Denmark is a wonderful country and there is a lot of good people here. I am Dane, and I do not accept OhSleeperAwake's portrait. Danes can be tough to get in touch with, but if you succeed, you will be treated like a part of that Dane's family. You will have a friend for life.

  • @OhSleeperAwake

    well.. we're better looking... more fun.. and smarter.... that's the reason why the danes only want to mingle with other danes.. we don't need foreigners!! this video was actually made to scare you off !

  • @ezerinis the sky in denmark is usually always gray better u know that, but the building are often colorated and it is nice!

  • @ezerinis This was probably recorded in either early winter or early spring.

    This is Scandinavia, in the winter season it's cold, we have very few hours of daylight, there are no leaves on the trees and people stay indoor most of the time, and if we go out we are wrapped in thick clothes to not freeze our backsides off :o) Wait untill summertime - the town will sizzle with people, and don't forget: Danes are actually the happiest people on the planet :o)

    

  • @ezerinis try watching the other guide to copenhagen in the suggestions. This is what it will be like in late autumn/ winter..in the summer it's boiling!!! that thing about J walking is rubbish aswell..people always do it..

  • @ezerinis denmark is cold,boring and grey.. thats denmark for you

  • @ezerinis come in the summertime

  • @ezerinis

    I went in the summer, it was beautiful, with good weather, but during the winter I think it's indeed very gray

  • @ezerinis i live in denmark and u probably shouldnt come here cause its NEVER sunny here and ull just get a depression like all of us living here :P

  • @ezerinis arh no don't worry. It can get gray but no more than any other country. its absolutley amazing. good people, good food, good culture and lost to do and see.

  • Depressing indeed...

    

  • @ezerinis Hey:-) Check out the video below then "The beauty of copenhagen" Maybe you'll like it better :-) Cheers from Denmark

  • @ezerinis this has been filmed either winter or fall, but summer and spring are amazing in Denmark

  • @ezerinis That's a good thing. Because then you'll be totally overwhelmed when you see it at summer! :D

  • @ezerinis I´m Danish and sun is NOT a rarety.

  • @ezerinis Bad quality camera. I live here. Its great =)

    

  • @Dungarth - you should really keep your racist bullshit to yourself. Not very flattering! Besides, what if there are black people in the city? The only problem with that, would be close minded freaks like you, who would start discriminating for no reason! People like you are the reason behind the problems of this world. Not foreigners!

    Oh and @rocados2 - it seems to me that you would be the, as you so nicely put it yourself, 'self-centred, selfish, arrogant, egocentric and egoistic' type so..

  • @rocados2 If you hate Denmark or Danes so much, why the f* do you feel the need to obsess so god damn much about it? Just leave it. -Denmark is a beautiful country with a lot of extremely beautiful cities! Copenhagen is my favourite European city. It has a lot of really cool underground environments, fun clubs, lots of music and entertainment, art and restaurants.. It is rated as one of the coolest European cities.. Every city has mistakes, but Copenhagen is an over all really cool place to be!

  • DANISH GIRLS ARE REALLY REALLY HOT INDEED

  • I love EUROPE !

  • i live in denmark copenhagen is the capital

  • I want to visit.

    Thank you.

    George Vreeland Hill

  • I will be studying abroad there. What an excellent looking city! So excited!

  • @ChallengeDK

    Very true, I think Germany has a lot more to offer, also is not as expensive.

  • @ChallengeDK What are you talking about? It's not the biggest city, but it is big, with alot of people. The video is showing that it's very cloudy, but it isn't! It can be cloudy, of course, but also very sunny. It was about 33 degress last summer. And it's not that grey as they show you in this video! Trust me. Of course it's a little overpriced, but that's because we have VAT! Omg, are you really that stupid? Copehagen is so cool, trust me, you will love it.

  • @kagesmagergodt1000 I live in Copenhagen, so don't try to lecture me. I know what it's like, and I spoke the truth in my earlier post.

    Why do you use VAT as an excuse? That makes absolutely no difference towards the price level in Copenhagen; you pay a huge premium for the "privilege" of a lower std. of living in Copenhagen.

    BTW. no, I won't "trust you." Why should I ever trust you? You have never done anything to earn my trust - and calling me stupid certainly does not help you to that end.

  • @ChallengeDK Maybe you live in Copenhagen, but so do I, and it's not what you say it is.

    And I didn't ask for you trust, - I don't even want it from a person like you.

    Stop being so sad, and more proud of your city. If you don't like it, move. Simple.

  • @kagesmagergodt1000 If it's not how I make it out to be, then substantiate your claim.

    If you didn't ask for my trust, then why did you write "trust me?" That's in the imperative mood, and could not be a more clear example of you asking for my trust.

    You see kiddo, sometimes adults have commitments that they just can't get out of and which are indifferent to my particular views on any particular city. I'm here for completely different reasons than this town or country, both of which I hate.

  • Danes truly are a beautiful people.

  • Isn't that Scandinavia is part of Europe?

  • Oh yeah we do drink a lot! :D

    Especially the young ones.

    And yes be sure to visit Christiania!
