Welcome to FYI Denmark, a site created to help visitors and the expat living in Denmark understand more about this little Scandinavian country – Danmark.

I was born in Denmark, but grew up in other countries, so even though Denmark is my home and I have lived here on and off on many occasions, there are still new things that I am learning each day. There have been many times, when I wish I had access to the type of information provided here. Each time I return to Denmark, I find out that things have changed and there is a new learning curve.

For those who have never lived in Denmark, it can be a struggle to acclimate oneself to so many cultural differences. This site hopes to provide lots of general information that is valuable not only to the visitor, but also for the new expat living in Denmark for either months or years.

The information provided here is from my personal experience or personal research, which should give you enough practical information to get you started properly. Since people come from different backgrounds and circumstances, I cannot possibly address everyone’s personal needs.

Use this information to help you become better equipped to handle life in Denmark, but continue to do your own research and contact the proper authorities when it comes to official matters like visas, work permits, etc.

For those visiting Denmark, you will find money-saving tips for the budget minded, as well as information on attractions and accommodations.

For expats living or moving to Denmark, there is also information on various aspects of expat living in Denmark that may be different from your living experiences at home.

Take a look at the video on the top of the page to get a feel for Denmark. The pictures give a very good impression of Denmark. (Of course, during the winter months you might be hard pressed to recall that) Whether you are a tourist or an expat, FYI Denmark hopes you will find some useful information that will make your stay here a bit more pleasant. Bookmark this site and return often, as the site is continually being updated with new information, helpful advice and sensible tips. Expat living in Denmark has its problems, but others have conquered them and so can you.
