8 "everyday" things I love in Denmark 

Well.. a dane invented the ics cube bag :D

@@myopi wow....what a groundbreaking thing that was...lol. nobody knew how to make icecubes before that.

@@leftyme4568 Well, people did, but it was in a tray, not a bag :) The guy, Erling Vangedal Nielsen became a multi millionaire because of that :)

Vi er ikke mere effektive end japanerne, det er sikkert. xD

mye greit.

Haha thank you! 😊

I have heard that they are only reluctant to speak English in France.

It´s a part of an old conflict between France and England. France, England Sweden and Denmark have a sheered world record in wars against our closest neighbor. Depending on how a war is defined historians are not sure who is the recordholder.

I have alot of French friends in Denmark that speaks fluent English, but non that speaks danish, I have a close friend who really tries and I feel so bad, because no matter how hard he tries and I try, I never understand him.

It has nothing to do with "willingness". It's just that a lot of French people cannot speak English. It's as simple as that. It's just like in Japan.

Interesting thanks!

Thank you for watching 😍 i’m glad you’re enjoying the videos 😊

I agree 🤩👌🏻 and thanks for watching! 😊

As a norwegian I can't even drink danish tap water because it tastes horrible to me, sorry :P I think Sweden and Norway + maybe Switzerland has the best tap water in the world. Never seen Denmark up there on the list, but I might be wrong.

@@peacefulminimalist2028 youre correct, but the ground water in my area (middle of Jutland) are top notch, copenhagens Tap water tastes like chlorine

Yes , that’s nice ! 😃😊👍🏻

To many foreigners it's surprising that you have to bag your stuff yourself. Anyway the split end conveyor belts have existed as long as I can remember. One oddity was when Aldi first got to Denmark, and there was no end at all, they basically expected you to park the shopping cart at the end and let stuff fall back into the cart after being scanned... Doesn't work so well with eggs, and I believe Aldi realized that not everyone buys so much that a whole cart makes sense... So all I see now are the split ends again.

Aldi has even started to chaange to the Danish style in new Danish stores. Before Aldi and Lidl have only been using the German style even in their Danish supermarkets, but Danes hate them and for very good reason. They are so impratical. They have them in many other countries too and then they often have aa long table at the end table where you can move your groves to to pack them without getting too stressed. But the Danish style just makes so much more sense.

@@BenjaminVestergaard in the 70´s they had the split in Irma as far as I remember

Thank you!

Thank you very much for your kind comment ! 😃 and take care too 😊

U r right Danish water is nice

Ok thanks 😃👍🏻😊

Here's a good trick for the bakery. When you order, know how many pieces of bread you want and tell them that, that way they know how big the bag is going to be. So you start off with saying I need 7 pieces and then you order the different pieces you want.

I live in Odense and I’ve spent most of my life in Paris 😉

Yes that’s great for sure 😊 i mention it in another video 😊 thanks for watching!

A French Woman Living In Denmark Oui, je viens de le voir 👌

Tak for det 😃👍🏻

Sí, más o menos. un poco exagerado, quizás. Es usted muy amable.

Try SuperBrugsen, that’s where i’ve seen it! 🙂

@@AFrenchWomanLivingInDenmark Not the Superbrugsens I've attended recently. (Nyborg, Odense). And the one in Nyborg was renovated last October. Perhaps only in Copenhagen....?🤔

@@birgitpugesgaard8708 i live in Odense, one of the SuperBrugsens in Odense had it , i used it myself 😊

Interesting ! 😃👍🏻

Birds are not really used to glass and if they can see a 'passage' they think they can fly through. So we put up preditor birds who hover and 'looking for pray' to keep the little ones alive - not to let them break their neck in the attempt...

Yes, some places have a lot of it.

As a danish bathroom has done for ages.

Yeah, the tap water in NYC will make you sick at first. Should only drink bottled in US cities or filtered

Thanks for your feedback 😃😊👍🏻!

Cargo-bike / lad-cykel 👍

Ah the tap water... I've been to Japan once, but despite the signs saying that it was safe, I didn't dare to try. I've heard once that we try to keep the tap water below 12C in DK because otherwise the risk of bacteria growing in the system is too high. But there was no actual side taste when I used it for brushing teeth. I don't know if I was just unlucky, NYC water is also supposed to be drinkable, but at the hotels I've visited there was most often that swimming pool smell, and one place the water even smelled like diesel or other fuel... Not exactly the best cup of instant coffee I've ever had. Anyway and in the end, there's already a big difference in the taste of water at different places inside Denmark. I grew up in the middle of Jutland, not far from where most bottled water in Denmark is tapped, so I'm maybe just picky, but CPH area water is OK, but not top notch. And in CPH area we have a crazy battle with calcium... Lost count of how many electric kettles we've been through since 2012, while in Jutland I'd lose count of how many years I had had a kettle.

@@BenjaminVestergaard thanks for sharing 😃👍🏻!

What i mean is our conveyor belts do not have 2 separate sides , only 1 :) and for the lawn mower i mean the automatic ones yes :)

Mange tak ! Ja… meget lignende sprog! jeg forstår hvad du skrev på svensk 😲😃 jeg lærer dansk hver dag men jeg er ikke flydende🙂

@@AFrenchWomanLivingInDenmark Din danska är bra! Du kommer att vara flytande någon dag snart, tror jag.

Yeah, tap water on the Faroe Islands is the best! Used to live there - no calcium in the electric keddle or on the bathroom tiles. And the taste....🤩👍

I suppose you mean the lift for it ? At the cashier in SuperBrugsen 😊

Also føtex have it in some stores

@@arenthus I have never seens that in SuperBrugssen, Føtex or ny other store for that matter. The only thing I have seen is a special escalator for trolleys in Denmark's oldest Føtex store in Guldsmedegade in Aarhus which is a two story store with stairs between the leves. This special trolley escalator makes sure the trolly stays horisozontal and secured during transport between the storys.

I have seen it in SuperBrugsen 😊

alot of shops have them, after the get make over ...

😄

Thanks 😊

og det danske er ladcykel

I agree with MobilePay 👍🏻 and thanks now i feel better about the lawn mower! lol 😆

She means less limestone (in French : calcaire)

😅

No its not... ;-)

They need to change their mindset. Our system wouldn't work in the USA. They are far from ready for it.

What do you mean ? 🤔😊

@@AFrenchWomanLivingInDenmark Sorry, but that was a bit of a crazy wish. I asked you to compare Denmark Radio's P1 (their most serious talk radio) to some French top intellectual talk radio. But that requires you understanding Danish and French equally well and that's not possible. So my suggesting was stupid. Sorry.

@@Finnec123 maybe one day i will be able to! 😃😊

@@AFrenchWomanLivingInDenmark Yes. ⁣ ⁣ Without being an expert, I think learning the language is the key from which all else follows.⁣ 🗣️⁣ ⁣ Personally, I don't think I could do it (learning a new language, except English), but I would 𝘵𝘳𝘺 to do it for my kids' sake, and carry the burden without ever totally reaching the goal. But my kids will.⁣ 👶⁣ ⁣ And I look at 𝗡𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗡𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗺 and think 'I could never do that; I'm not that kind of a person. I don't have the energy or ability. And besides she arrived here as a kid'. And that's all true.⁣ ⁣ I guess it's a personal thing really, and me, I'd leave it to the kids.⁣ ⁣ I'm from the South of Jutland (Als) and though living in Copenhagen for a long time I never learned the dialect.⁣ ⁣ Now I'm living in Mid Jutland where folks don't seem to have a dialect. They don't even say "𝘥𝘦𝘵 æ 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘬 𝘵𝘳æ𝘭𝘴", which was disappointing. 😒⁣🙂⁣ ⁣ What I'm saying is: Being a 1st generation immigrant can be hard, but do it for the kids. The 2nd generation will make it.

@@Finnec123 yes i absolutely agree with you 😊

I would say that applies to quite a few countries 😊 i feel the same about France 🤔😅

I can Imagine that 🙂. I live in Denmark and just to move out og the country - there is happent alot of bad things over the last 20 years, that make Denmark a very cold and heartless country

"Ladcykler" (Cargo bikes 😀 ). The trolley lift in supermarkets is far from everywhere :-( ! I hear that "MENU" has them in some of there shops. The robot lawn mover is just next step, after the robot vacuum cleaner ;-). And Yeah! Your partner is right!! The "Crow/Hawk kite" is all about keeping birds from sitting on our balcony's or "Sh...ing" on them. Apart from that, pigeons are really LOUD :-( ! Basically because there calling out for there mate, about finding a new home 😔 So here's a "fun fact". Pigeons will return to the balcony (if any), they were hatched. They will only build a nest in a corner of a balcony. If you deny them a corner, they will eventually not return. I use a peace of "French technology" and it has worked for me 👍😀👍. Four emptied bottles (one in each corner) of French Wine, filled with water (for weight). Haven't been disturbed by pigeons for years ;-) ! I often work nights and sleep in the day. Yeah. You can put up "pigeon spikes", but there ugly and you risk hurting yourself. There may be a bit of pigeon shit on your railing, but the rest of your balcony should me more or less safe.

Yup, Paris is definitely a cave 😆 loool

@@AFrenchWomanLivingInDenmark By what you said, you lived there in a catacombs or locked out basement out of touch with real world. If you did indeed lived in Paris, then 95% of you are saying about France and Paris especially is an outrageous lie. Everything you said that was different in Denmark except cargobike is a lie. I will not even touch on your lack of compassion towards the elderly people. You are a disgusting individual and for that I am unsubscribing. Lies and smearing of France I don't need to listen to. Disgusting

@@J4ckCr0w Just relax man, we all been to Paris and we all love France, but your tap water does NOT taste good
