I have a tip. Study the language very much, especial in the start, study hard. Your workmates and neighbours will notice your progress. Danes knows the language is hard, so we get impressed when we hear people are progressing in the language. Impress the Danes with your progress. One day I got a new neighbour, she spoke Danish very badly. So we often spoke English. Then I found out she has been living here for 14 years. I was very disappointed, and we didn't meet as much any more. I had lost the interest in sitting drinking tea and just chat, I was annoyed it had to be in English, without any chance it could become Danish in the future. We are still cool, but close friends we will never be. Do what you can to learn Danish, and keep on learning, so maybe I will not turn my back on you, but instead help you. Help yourself, learn the language. Tip! I saw a guy, here on YT, who had problems remembering what things are called in Danish. So he put posters on he's stuff in the apartment. I think it is genius. Good luck!
Thank you very much. 'Besøgsven' is a nice initiative, where you can visit elderly people and talk with them so that they don't feel lonely. Some elderly also speak English and like to have foreign visitors as well.
@@minutsi it s just do not work it for me and it is Ok for me now, i live in my own bubble😉😁 . Danish population is an homogenous , tribal population dominated by ,, Janteloven ,, and just by being different, non-conformist , not in the line with them you are ,, wrong ,, They are very brainwashed by they own politicians. Danish have an tendency to exclude, even Danish are excluding each other , and in my opinion they are suffering from the small country complex. They are very afraid not ,, loosing ,, their culture , tradition , language so one. ( because of the size of the country ) Last but least Denmark , danish people met late in their History other cultures , foreigners, immigrants . In the 1960’s came in Denmark the first immigrants ( turks came to Denmark for work) So because Denmark is a small sized country , with a small homogen population , and danish population met other different cultures late in their history, it is still hard for the most of danish to think globally. Is a little bit funny , I remember the period with Brexit , it was also a wave here in Denmark to leave EU. But danish have seen how ,,fucked up,, is now UK economy because of Brexit, and they forget now about Dan-exit 😉😁. Og hvis du er dansker denne refleksion , min refleksion er også til dig. Det er bare min subjektiv mening om dit land og mere specifik jer danskere … no hard feelings…😉😁😊
Du kan have så mange refleksioner du vil, men hvis du ikke er i stand til at få venner, så er det formentlig ikke kun alle andres skyld alene men også din egen. Dine refleksioner antyder, at du har en tendens med at sætte folk i “ rammer og bokse” påført etiketter. Det giver dig måske en følelse af at have kontrol, men det er en dårlig ide, hvis du vil have venner. Mennesket er et kaos væsen, der hele tiden udvikler sig i uventede retninger. Hav ikke for store forventninger ( pas på med forventninger i det hele taget ) tag folk som de er her og nu og få det bedste ud af det. Pludselig en dag går det op for dig, at nogle af de mennesker, som du omgås rent faktisk vil dig det bedste - du kan regne med dem, de er underholdende at være sammen med, ja de er rent faktisk dine venner ! Bare mine refleksioner - no hard feelings.
I'm a Dane and single. I have no friends but is a member of several clubs and night classes. However, I have never made friends or found partners at these activities. You will not meet friends at work.

Hi Gert. The language is a highway to understanding a culture. I agree completely - it's so important to learn the language of country you live in.
I intend to live in Copenhagen...but making friends is very difficult even if I'm Brazilian...who knows, maybe I'll meet good and trustworthy people!!
Most likely you will if you put in the effort 😀
If I'm going to live in Denmark then I'll have to learn English and Danish because at the moment I'm using Google Translate. Hugs!!!
Denmark is a fairly good place to learn English 😊
@@danishdream you natives are edcated I like that
Helt sikkert arbejde lidt med lyden :D
Ja, min RØDE mic svigtede mig under denne optagelse, så der skulle en del post-production fixfaxerier til at få den på ret kurs :-/
Tak you. Your session is very informative. My dear friend, Can you educate me on social work that I can do after my job.
Thank you very much. 'Besøgsven' is a nice initiative, where you can visit elderly people and talk with them so that they don't feel lonely. Some elderly also speak English and like to have foreign visitors as well.
Where are you from, and where are you staying here in Denmark 🇩🇰
After almost 12 years in Denmark i can write a compendium about how you can not make friends in Denmark . 🤭😁😉
Would certainly be interesting to hear some of those stories 🙂
It's most likely a problem about yourself... What have you tried...?
