1. A cool tourist destination where I always feel comfortable, stress-free, cheerful
2. Vesterbro neighborhood in Copenhagen - organic restaurants, organic food shops, organic (natural) people
3. Visit Andersen's birthplace in Odense and remember two of my favorite fairytales of my childhood: The Steadfast Tin Soldier and The Emperor's New Clothes
4. The oldest part of the small town, Ribe on Jutland Peninsula - cute, colored wooden houses from the 12th century and an equally medieval church

5. The typical Danes - no mannerism, no theatricality, no pomposity - at least how I idealize them
6. Everybody speak good English and helpful in all ways
7. The amazing bycicle culture - more civilized than in the Netherlands
8. Most of the Danes look attractive, neat, casually dressed - Danish girls, women, are blessed with gorgeous features
9. A lot of healthy food options - I like those meals which include a lot of quality vegetables
10. Crossing the Oresund Bridge at sunset (in dry weather!)
11. When visiting Kronborg Castle (Elsinore) the ghost of Hamlet's father whispered to me that Claudius did not murder me.
1. Booze, beer, some food items are much more expensive than in Germany
2. Danish language sounds awkward to me, though competing with Dutch in this
3. The landscape is full flat, no attractive mountains; nature is not inspiring
4. Weather is often windy, rainy - gloomy, dark sky
5. The staff of some tourist information offices served unwillingly (to whom it may concern)
6. Danes beyond Copenhagen are often too reserved, mistrustful, stern, maybe somewhat xenophobic
7. Markedly many lonely people (All the lonely people Where do they all belong? Beatles)
8. Denmark is an agreeable tourist destination, but not overly memorable (Copenhagen is another story)
9. Danes in their everyday life often blow up trivial safety concerns
10. Tivoli Gardens is out-of-date (more for Chinese tourist groups than for children)
