Moving to Denmark was probably the most expensive thing I have ever done and looking back, there are a couple of things I wish I would have known before. Things that could have saved me money, time, and a loooot of stress. And therefore, for those of you who are new to Denmark (or not that new but just curious) here is the beginner's guide on how to survive in expensive Denmark - part 1.

One of the first things I noticed moving to Denmark was that many things here are a bit expensive, especially when it comes to going out for a meal, or having some drinks in the city. It's no secret that going out for drinks is quite a regular student activity... but how on earth was I going to afford this?

'Unwritten' rules of Danish culture

If you have a company idea and play with the thought of bringing it to life – even while you are still studying – the possibilities in Aarhus for doing so are bigger than you might think.

As the pandemic turned a year, some of the students that moved to Aarhus last year have some experience in moving during the restrictions. So why not share them with you all, that maybe are now struggling in trying to answer your thousands questions on “can I move there?” “should I isolate myself?” “how can I buy food if I arrive and have to go straight away in isolation?” but first of all, “how do I reach Aarhus!?”

The housing market in Aarhus is fairly competitive. For a reason! Aarhus is a beautiful, vibrant city with the highest percentage of students in Denmark. Definitely one of the best places to spend your study years. (A bit biased opinion 😉).

Moving to Denmark from the UK, I assumed that the culture wouldn’t be too different as both countries are situated in Northern Europe and have many historical ties.
