Teach the Teacher - Getting about in Denmark

I wanna teach you guys a bit about how you might wanna prepare and act if you think of going to
Denmark

Weather
The weather in Denmark is known to be cold and rainy, which is true often, but more than
anything the Danish weather can be described as unpredictable. A well-prepared Danish tourist
always has a super thin plastic raincoat that can fit in their pocket for when it starts to rain.
Danish people aren’t really bothered by the rain though

Transportation
Since gasoline is roughly $6, it doesn’t make sense to have a car if you’re just visiting. Normally
a family of five will have one car. Get yourself a bike and a bus-pass. You’ll need it.

Culture
Danish people might seem rude at first. There is no tradition for being nice to people you don’t
know. You never ask how people are doing unless you’re actually concerned for their
well-being. “Hej” is hello, “farvel” is goodbye, “spurgt” is i don’t care, i did not ask you and
“skrid” means leave me alone.
