June 10, 2012 – Two lists

Things I will miss about Denmark:

  • The lovely, polite people
  • The interesting buildings
  • The greenery
  • How design is incorporated into almost everything (successful or not is another list)
  • Random strangers do not talk to you while waiting in line somewhere (I hate this in the US)
  • Public transport is easy and quick
  • Riding a bike almost every day
  • Having a glass of wine with lunch with no dirty “you must be an alcoholic” looks
  • The food, oh my god, the food!
  • Soda Pop is expensive, thereby helping me achieve my goal of cutting drastically back on diet drinks
  • Cheap, GOOD wine

Things I will not miss about Denmark:

  • Living in college dorm with drunk Danish girls that party, sing and dance loudly up and down the hallway in front of my door until 4:45 AM.
  • Bikes that are shittier than a rusted huffy
  • The sun coming up at 4:30 AM
