Merci d'avance!

Salut Julien!!

Tu es tr猫s rapide!!:D j'茅tais justement en train de rajouter un petit topo en anglais...

Oui c'est fort possible que je parte car le boulot est tr猫s int茅ressant mais la vie semble 锚tre excessivement ch猫re donc je ne sais pas, le coup fatal m'a 茅t茅 port茅 lorsque quelqu'un m'a appris que les fruits et l茅gumes ne s'ach猫tent pas au kg mais 脿 l'unit茅 tellement ils sont on茅reux!!

voil脿 voil脿...

Bonne journ茅e 脿 toi et 脿 bient么t;)

Je suis rentr茅e de Roumanie fin Mai pour poursuivre mon docu en France...

Merci!!

Salut !

Je suis actuellement au Danemark, pour un an. Je ne suis pas 脿 Copenhague mais 脿 脜rhus dans le Jutland. On m'a dit que la vie y est un peu moins ch猫re qu'脿 Copenhague, mais la diff茅rence ne doit pas 锚tre 茅norme.

Il est vrai qu'ici la vie est plus ch猫re qu'en France. Les l茅gumes ne sont pas si chers, et je les ach猫te au kilo :) En fait c'est surtout le reste qui est cher, particuli猫rement la viande.

Mais si tu y vas pour travailler, ne te fais pas de soucis, les salaires sont nettement sup茅rieurs aux notres, du coup le niveau de vie est plus 茅lev茅.

Pour le logement, c'est 脿 peu pr猫s les m锚mes prix qu'en r茅gion parisienne, voir Paris m锚me si tu prends quelque chose au centre ville.

Tu trouveras quelques informations suppl茅mentaires diss茅min茅es sur mon blog :

Et si t'as d'autres questions, n'h茅site pas 脿 m'茅crire ! :)

Hi!

I am living in Copenhagen right now. What life is like here? Well if you come from a big city then Copenhagen feels a bit quiet (I came from Jakarta so that explains the whole thing :P) but everything is very expensive here *shakes head*. For me the food is not that good because I am used to spicy stuff and I think that the Danish food tastes a bit flat for my tongue. As for apartments, it is very very difficult to find apartments in Copenhagen, maybe you can browse internet first before coming here and the waiting list is usually very long.

Apartment (3-room or so) usually costs around 8,000 kroner per month in downtown Copenhagen but of course it will be much cheaper in the suburb area.
Maybe it is a good idea for you to check The Copenhagen Post website () that is the only English newspaper here in Copenhagen.

Good luck!

Thank you for your kind answers.
I am currently in Copenhagen but unfortunately not with a Danish salary! :top:
Up until now I cannot say I am especially thrilled to be here, with the weather and the lack of light so I haven't be out a lot actually!! Anyway, I hope it's gonna look much nicer in a few months... :D Let's stay optimistic!!

I'm thinking I should change my country profile even though I don't know how long I'm gonna stay!!

Godt Nytar! La multi ani! Tanti auguri per l'anno che viene. Feliz ano nuevo. Bonne ann茅e!

Bye!

Sonia

PS: Flipper have you met danish people so far ? Have you met foreigners?
Oh the weather so far is the "warmest" in the last few decades or so *rolls eyes* so they say...and I am actually looking forward to seeing the snow falling but it looks like nothing is coming yet..

Where in Copenhagen do you live if you don't mind me asking?
Answering your question about the Danes, I have to say that I met quite a lot :)
My boyfriend is a Dane so I get in touch with his family a lot, also I am studying in Danmarks Tekniske Universitet and have a lot of Danish classmates.

So far (apart from my boyfriend's family and friends), the Danes are quite...foreigners phobia if I might say...but that is just my opinion

As for foreigners, I met a lot of them in my Danish language school (Studieskolen) and also at my university...since there are bunch of international students in my university.

I hope that answers your question :)

Godt Nyt氓r
Are you still in Copenhagen ?

Hello Sojachica!

I will start my work in Copenhagen on January 1st, so I have to say my point of view regarding Danes or life there might not be interesting, however, I have been visiting the city, running arround and calling agencies in order to find a flat in december, and let me say it's really not easy!

The prices are a little bit cheaper than in Paris, where I come from, but still qui expensive, especially if you don't have a Danish salary...

You also have to be careful because when you rent a house, the agency does not ask for "cautions" like we have in France (ie: your parents, etc.), but they will ask you to pay 3 months of guarantee... or even more. For example to get my flat I had to pay 3 months guarantee (that I will eventually get back when I leave) + the 3 lasts months of my rent (that I will not have to pay once I tell them that I want to leave three months later)... so it can be quite a lot of money to give in advance.

The renting contracts are also different than in France: you can find flats for less than a year (x months), between 1 or 2 years, more than 2 years and indefinite time... so you have to decide before how long you want to stay (for example I found a nice place, but it was just for one year, and there was no way I was going to move again in december 2010...) so this is important too.

Regarding life itself, well, as I said before, I'll really be starting it in a few days...!

Good luck, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me (in french too if you prefer)!
