#Denmark #Danmark #LivingInDenmark

In this video, we explain the hardest things about living in Denmark from our perspective as two Americans. After almost five years living in Denmark as Americans, we share our experiences of the not-so-happy parts of life in Denmark as a foreigner.

First we cover the tough parts of finding housing in Denmark as a foreigner. Then we discuss the difficulty of a private postal service (it's not the "socialist Denmark" that American media makes it out to be, and the postal service in Denmark is not so great.

Then we talk about the resistance to foreigners in Denmark. The government clings to tactics of using foreigners as scapegoats and it can make life much more difficult.

Learning Danish while living in Denmark is also a tough part of living in Denmark. We discuss the fact that it's necessary for long term living in Denmark and you can watch more on the topic in this video, DO YOU NEED TO KNOW DANISH TO LIVE IN DENMARK?:    • Do you NEED to know Danish to live in Denm...  

Next we talk about the high prices in Denmark and what you may have to change about your normal budget to get by in the Danish way. Finally, we talk about the challenges of having to constantly answer for your country and every political move they make or cultural stereotype of your nation of origin.

While we are happy to share the hardest parts of living in Denmark, we can't stress enough how much we love calling this country home. We truly do love our life in Denmark as foreigners and wouldn't trade it for anything.

Please keep that in mind and keep the comments civil. We know that we touch on some hot button issues like immigration laws in Denmark and other criticisms, but it's only because no place is perfect. Even though we love every part of our life in Denmark, we don't want people to consider moving here to be unprepared for some tough realities. That's why we share these experiences of living in Denmark.
