  • Are danes really weird? I'm having a good at some reasons to why danes are strange. The reasons are from these two online articles: uniavisen.dk/e... and www.thelocal.d.... I hope that you enjoy it.

    Yes people do go to cemetery for picnic, joggig, walking their dogs, relax with their kids here in Copenhagen and around Copenhagen haha and being a Chinese who never goes to cemetery unless visiting my own passed away family members, I am now pretty much used to it. I used to live in Kongens Lyngby near a big cemetery yard and I went there jogging , too. There are quite some cherry trees in Bispebjerg Cemetery here in Copenhagen and during cherry blossom season it is FULL of people picnicing and photo shooting.

    Hi Elise. In terms of "Baker Culture" I think that person is really referring to "bread culture". From what I know bakeries in Denmark mainly stock pastries and cakes instead of fresh bread. In countries like France and Germany there is a big bread culture where everyone buys their bread fresh from bakeries everyday. Bakeries in these countries only really stock bread and other savoury bakes not cakes or sweet things. However, in the UK we are similar to Denmark in that respect. I hope this helps. I think this is what they meant.

    I think the weirdest things I came across in Denmark are:
    1 Some rental apartments don't have bathrooms, they share one with other units.
    2 If you are poor and receive help from a church ie. a food bank, the government will refuse you service.
    3 There were empty alcohol bottles left on the curb where the could smash and cause a car accident not against the wall of a building on the sidewalk.
    PS your set up is super chill, clean and a little overgrown. Love the fabric patterns and the jazz music.

    • @glastiger7598
      @glastiger7598 3 роки тому

      Number 2 is simply not true. I’m not sure what you mean by “government service” but if you are referring to financial help you would have to receive quite a lot of money from that church for your payments from the government to stop. Even so, when you’ve spend that money you can apply for help again.

    I think every country has his own weirdness. And when it comes to recycling bottles, I want to say that that's not weird! Because I live in The Netherlands and we do the same exact thing here with our bottles 😁 I think every country should do so.

    • @TainDK
      @TainDK 6 років тому

      the prise of recycling was higher then making new - so why bother? might be the thought behind the end of your recycling in TX. We had bottles and still have bottles that are not part of this system - but more and more are in... Our favorit coco has a small bottle that is in the system and two larger bottles that isn't =) so we are not all there yet, but still on our way. I think it is better to recycle then not to when the option is there and less then double the cost. Fun fact - the cans are the same in Germany (but cheaper and thereby imported) and can be delivered to the store where you get money back from cans. Not that you get money back from cans not in the system - but they will enter the recyclables =)

      too bad its soo expensive...The collecting, cleaning and recycling cyclus makes it almost 10x more expensive than producing new..

    Just for the record, it's not called "question sign", it's called: question mark. People in Denmark don't leave their babies in their cars, they might leave them in their stroller outside of a café maybe, but NEVER in a car. Denmark is a lovely country with great people, but I will admit that the language is very confusing and hard to master.

    Danish sounds very interesting, in my opinion, I really like it. It is not easy to learn or pronounce but it's very pretty. It's funny because I started watching your channel a while back and now I'm actually moving to Denmark in summer, who knew? Enjoyed the video, I love the danish culture and the respect it provides, I was surprised when I was there for 5 days and people were all respectful of each other, I was blown away!! Being from Romania, that amazes me, here everyone tries to get ahead, cut lines, be the first everywhere...it's sooo annoying! Can't wait to live there finally

    As an American who just moved to Odense, I quite enjoy some of the differences. For example, the sense of respect of others (not skipping in the queue) seems to be much higher here. I was surprised that many of my coworkers are quite engaging in personal conversation but that may be because of the work I do (Facebook datacenter).

      Klára Matoušková we used to do it in America, too, but not anymore. I think some states still do deposits/refunds on glass bottles, but very few. It has largely been phased out because it costs more to recycle glass than it does to just make new glass. Isn’t that strange?

    I think there are quite a few similarities to Canada. We are charged a recycling fee on bottles and milk containers as well only we have to bring them to a bottle depots. I don't know why we call it that, You can bring any recycling there. We line up for everything as well and it is very rude to jump in front of the line with letting the next person go first! Lol😄 I think of Canada as a strange mix of Britain and Scandinavia. It's a wierd place😊

    Danes have a weird obsession with bridges... København Marathon ends in Sweden so they need to cross the bridge xD... bicycle run over the storebælt bridge...
    They are kinda proud of their only mountain...himmelbjerget... which is like 150m high xD
    But the best thing is, that they love their own weirdness and can laugh over it together with you, so its easy to show your own weirdness.
    Danes might have rough edges here and there but they are very welcoming and sweet especially when you show commitment to socialize...

    Biking without helmet... If an accident happen with a cyklist, the infrastructure at that place might change to make it safer for bikes... Many light crossings has a separate light for bikes that turn green 2 seconds befor the light for the cars does so that the car turning right will see the bikes immediately and so on will the infrastructure change for the benefit of the bikes. Some places there will be a tunnel under a road just because the rare bike crossing could be dangerous... So the helmet is ofc. a safer way to go - but only in rare rare cases needed as the infrastructure is made with bikes in mind. Also, almost if not every, Dane has been a cyklist so we have a different perspective on bikeriders when we are in our cars. However children under the age of 12 must wear a helmet (by law). That might have something to do with the capability of spotting the consequence of ones actions is better tuned at age 12 then at 7...

    The can thing is not weird. In California when you buy a liquid in a bottle - like water or soda - you pay an extra 0.05 - 0.10 cents, and you can return the bottle and get that money back. It's called CRV tax. Nevertheless, American culture and Danish culture is so much different in so many ways. For me the part that surprised me the most, is how reserve people are. Not allot of smiles, and some people can be very cold. It takes a while to break someones shell.

    We have the bottle recycling machines here in the US too! Typically at our grocery stores theres 3 different machines. One for glass bottles, one for plastic bottles and one for soda cans. My grandma will collect all her bottles and bring them back to get money. Here in the US its only 5 cents we get back. so if we return 3 bottles, we only get 15 cents out of a whole dollar back. We print out a little ticket and bring that to customer service and they can give us the money. (: I don't think its strange since we have it here.

    • @TainDK
      @TainDK 6 років тому

      we use the ticket at the checkoutline as co-payment (or if you had badshit many - as payment =) but we get around 15 cents, 22 cents and 45 cents each depending on the size - however, when we bought it we payed the exact same for the bottle as we later will get back... oh and all goes in 1 machine, glass, cans and plastic. then the machine (or manuel labor) sorts the recyclables.

    We recycle bottles in the us too.. although many people just leave their bottles for homeless etc because we don’t want to be bothered standing there with a million empties. I’m sure the amount of poverty in the US is ridiculous compared to Denmark.

      We have a very good welfare in Denmark. But we are also pay a lot of tax, and we have lots of tax on different things, when we have to buy a car, we have 150 % tax on the price. And we pay about 40 % in tax of yours income..
      But then when we have pay tax, the most things are free i Denmark. We have almost free education, an when your take a longer education, you got paid to study.. We have almost free hospitals, and doctors, and we dont pay anything when we got a operation.. We have 5 weeks of holidays, and we have many other days on the year, we also have free from work, and we only work normaly 37 yours on weeks..
      And if you dont have a job, you also get money. So we dont have many homeless danish people, then it is most of the time, the own fault that they living on the street.. (( Some times the homeless danish people, have a dog and the difference places, where they can get a room, they dont can have the dog with them. Then they rather will live on the streets, with there dogs... ))... But we have many homeless foreigners because, they dont get any money from the state.....

      Kurt Jørgensen thank you for adding this. While you pay more taxes it absolutely seems worth it if overall you have a much kinder, calmer, healthier civilized lifestyle. I would certainly be willing to pay more taxes if it meant homes and healthcare for everyone. Not to pay 1% of billionaires that fund our politicians here, who pay little to no taxes on their billions. We get little to nothing in return. Poor schools, horrible healthcare and incredibly expensive housing especially here in New York City and their major cities here. Super interesting and I appreciate your insight.

      We also have a multi-billion kroner(danish crowns) black economy. It is sometimes almost a national sport. Nearly everybody loves paying without any paperwork f.eks mechanics, plumbers, carpenters, gardeners, painters, babysitters, accountants, name the profession and find someone that take the job. With no tax or VAT, the customer saves money and the black worker makes more. Very respectable citizens will boast at dinner parties about their latest black deal and how much they have saved. No shame, unless you, like a former Prime Minister did, get caught.

    Well yes, if it is Assistentens Cemetery or Bispebjerg Cemetery but is case of Assistentens Cemetery, the place is for most part more laid out as a park than a cemetery and Bispebjerg Cemetery is the same. Nothing weird about that.
    Why should death be such a weird thing? We all end there anyway.

      TheChiefEng I don’t find that odd at all, even in the U.S. our first apartment after getting married was near a beautiful, very old cemetery. We walked in it under the trees and read 100+-year old gravestones. When I was a child, we lived in military housing that had no green space, and neighborhood kids road our bikes up to a big, hilly, beautiful park-like cemetery to enjoy the shade and soft grass.. We’d chat with the gravediggers. I gave “sermons” from a stone pulpit/headstone.

    Here in the US we have a few places and at grocery stores where you bring your bottles for returns. I think that is pretty much everywhere. Maybe they should have a law for helmets or can be fined for not wearing one. That would make people wear them. Nice to see you Elise.

      Denmark is (maybe now was?) the country with he least corruption, our trust in each other is an "of course" here. We might not say a word to you in the train, or the café (its a Privacy value) but if we had to leave our seat and go to the bathroom we might ask you to keep an eye out for our belongings leaving everything behind for you to watch, and trust that you do so (if you replied with a yes - cos you can actually say no, though that is often followed with an excuse, such as leaving in a min or so =) This is a safe country - Turist arias and high density arias are ofc places thifes thrives so commen sence is a must. Oh and it is unicorn-rare to find a none english speaking Dane, so help is everywhere =D
