I'm an American who has been living in Copenhagen for more than 6 years, and I absolutely love this city. I first came here as a college student studying abroad, and then on a backpacking trip. I finally moved here when I was 25, and had a child here 3 years later. I've experienced Copenhagen at so many life stages, and I can confidently say it has something for everyone! No matter what you're into (food, design, history...) or who you're traveling with (Small kids? Best friends? Romantic partner?) I want to help you make the most of your visit to Copenhagen. I know you'll fall in love with this city, just like I did!
