  • Leaving UA-cam and social media for my mental health gave me a new perspective of life in Denmark for foreigners!
    See how this American started to view Denmark differently after a change occurred after nearly 7 years in Denmark!

    I can recommend getting a cat as a cure against depression. No matter how sorry you feel for yourself, your cats don't care. Instead they show you what life is really about: Eating, sleeping and being entertained. Plus the occasional zoomies. Kind of put your whole life in perspective. Cheers from Copenhagen!

    Good to hear from you, Kelly, I was wondering about your fate as I follow USA citizens who move to Europe. I can understand your situation somehow: I was a high school teacher and I moved to Vienna, Austria, 50 years ago to be with my then Austrian boyfriend, then Austrian husband, now Austrian ex-husband (time goes on!) However, I never went through this stage of "what am I, where am I" as I was so excited to learn a new culture, get used to European life and get myself absorbed in my future in Austria. As soon as I arrived I knew I would never return to the States. As they say, "you made your nest, now live in it". I have never once looked back.

    I truly hope you find your place and feel great ☺️👍👋

    Your Danish is so much better than you give yourself credit for.
    Danes speaking English make mistakes, too, and we have accents, etc. And you understand us anyway. So it’s the same, when you speak Danish ❤

    Sounds really good that you have, if not found, then on the way to finding your own balance in your Danish life. I think a lot of us have to learn to be a bit more selfish, in order for us to have real energy to be there for others. Because if you don't find that balance, you will end up feeling some kind of miserable: stress, depression, anxiety and so forth. But it can be so hard, and I can only imagine how much harder it is when you also have some small human beings (aka kids) to take care of.
    In short: happy to see and hear that you are all in all happy :D.

    Omg, that’s soooo true! I’m extremely glad that you have finally found your peace here in Denmark 🇩🇰 it takes ages sometimes to settle down and just enjoy your life instead of always stressing out because of we (immigrants) are not fluent in danish after living here for couple of years, or because it’s not easy to assimilate here. ‘Ting tager tid’ - we all need to keep it in mind. I do feel you, and I hope one day I’ll also finally breathe out and just enjoy the life as much I did back in my country 🙏🏼🙏🏼

  • @nopenope3164

    I dont think, people really understands how it is to be an "immigrant", it takes huge courage and effort, to say "I'm now a citizen of this country. This is my home and my people", I think it is embedded in us, that we dont want to try to force our way into something, we might not be allowed to be a part of, or we're afraid that we won't be accepted maybe. But truth be told, Anyone who lives in Denmark, who embraces denmark, and wants the country to be good for the people and everyone else, is a dane (obviously you need a citizenship eventually to have it on paper too) but if you connect with a people, and want to be a part of the society and can relate to the direction the country is going in, then you're one of us. Thats just my opinion.
    It is ok to call yourself "American dane" or "American", or "Dane" w/e you want, it makes no difference, and it is important to remember where you came from, and where your roots were, but we're humans, we can adapt to so much if we allow ourself. I myself feel that any person can be a part of who i associate with, if they're likeminded and share a love for the people, it doesn't matter where you came from, what you believe in, or what you look like. If you're a part of the team, your're in as a equal
