Danish culture

Meeting the Danes

Arriving in a new country, experiencing a new culture and making local friends require effort in any country, and Denmark is no exception.

Danes have a reputation for being quiet and reserved and they value their close-knit groups of family and friends, but don’t get discouraged by this!

Make an effort to show you are interested in learning about their language and culture, and they will open up to you in return, allowing you to see how friendly and loyal Danes really are.
