Denmark
Denmark is said to be one of the happiest countries in the world. The country is a modern nordic society with a population approximately 6 million people.
The country is not very big and we don’t have any mountains. Actually, it’s quite a flat country, which makes it perfect for biking. And anywhere you go, you won’t be far from the sea.
The Danish landscape is a mixture of buzzing cities, small cozy towns, farm land, forests and fjords. You will find both modern architecture and really old houses and castles.
The currency in Denmark is the Danish Krone (kr. or DKK). Most places do not accept euros so you will have to exchange money.
Most places do take credit cards like VISA and MASTERCARD.
Visit the city of Kolding
When you stay at Houens Odde you should definately visit our local historic town of Kolding and maybe even the Koldinghus Castle Museum.
Most people in Denmark speak English
Though the accent may be a bit funny, we are taught English as a second language at school in Denmark, so most people speak English quite well.
Tipping when dining at restaurants
Tipping is not compulsory in Denmark, as service charges are typically included in the bill.
We like to be on time – and quite informal
Danes value punctuality and personal space. Public behavior is generally reserved, but Danes are known for their welcoming and egalitarian culture. So even if there is a hierachy, we tend to talk and work quite informal with each other.
The Danish humor tend to be quite sarcastic, dry, dark and ironic – but we always mean well, and we love a good laugh 🙂
