Canal in Copenhagen
Statue in park
In June I crossed off another country of my list: Denmark. We chose beautiful Copenhagen with it's colourful canals, edgy districts and billion bicycles.The city felt very cool and relaxed, people enjoyed the sun sitting across the canals in groups, chatting after work hours.It surprised me how different it was from the other places I visited. And this is mostly due to the lack of tourists snapping photos and getting in your way, it's not an overflowing city, not fast or overly busy, it's easy to get around, easy to talk to people (everyone seem to know English) and easy to find a nature oasis even in its centre.
My favourite findings
Copenhagen canal
The food - I recommend trying the open rye sandwiches. Supermarket have them in little plastic packs. They really know how to do lunches and the combination of ingredients is different but really works.
Open sandwich
The canals - a relaxed vibe, beautiful and colourful buildings and the option to go on boat rides around the city, underneath low and high bridges to see parts of its architecture.
Nyhavn canal
Tivoli Gardens - amazing entertainment, fun rides and vintage looks. The amusement park is a must see! Planning to write a future blog post just about it!

Christiana - I don't have a picture here, because it seems to be a dangerous place for photographers, yet it's a portrayal of "Make love not war" vibe. It's so different for it's colourful buildings and interesting history. What impressed me the most it's that it has it's own laws, a free zone for all .. as long as you don't take a picture :P
The towers - during the trip we also visited some of Copenhagen's tallest towers that offer beautiful views of the city.In conclusion Copenhagen is a capital city that I could actually see myself live in.
