THE OUTSIDE PERSPECTIVE

How to Live in Denmark, Kay Xander Mellish


If you are thinking about settling in Denmark this is a must read, and a quick read.

Based on the long-running How to Live in Denmark podcast by the American author, this inexpensive book makes your life in "the world's happiest country" less confusing for foreigners.

The chapters cover a lot of things such as: How to find a job in Denmark, what the workplace expects of you, how Danes think, why Danes are nice people but hard to get to know, how to live in Denmark, how to date a Dane, raising kids here, history, holidays, traditions, and weather.

The book is a fun and easy read, and is rewarding for Danes to read as well.

I can honestly say that it provided me with several insights and new perspectives on my own culture, as seen through the writer’s keen eyes.
