I ended up in Denmark because

I met my danish husband in USA, and I subsequently visited him in DK a few times. Apart from that, I was very interested in Scandinavian Design, so I decided to do a research study about Industrail Design at the Designskolen Kolding. During my studies I got married and consequently stayed in DK.

What surprises me most about working in Denmark is

The benefits you get as an employee and the good balance between work and personal life.

My Danish colleagues are

Very productive at work and nice people who are willing to help when asked.

Life in Denmark is

Calm and easy going. It can be a cultural shock at first, but having a job and trying to learn danish definitely makes it easier.

I would recommend anybody moving to Denmark to

Look for new opportunities, and experience whole different way of thinking.
