Located in the beautiful woodlands of Dyrehaven, just a short train ride away from central Copenhagen lies Bakken, the oldest amusement park in the world. Oddly, you don't find Bakken listed in too many Danish guidebooks as a 'must see' attraction, and in terms of amusement parks, Tivoli is probably seen by most visitors as [...]
What is the cost of 2 nights in Copenhagen? Is Copenhagen an expensive city to visit? Yes ... and no. It is expensive to an extent, but equally there are a number of free/cheap things to see and do when in the Danish capital. Hint, look over here --> Copenhagen – 10 Things to do on [...]
Upon my first visit to Copenhagen I didn't really pay too much attention to the Rundetårn. I must have passed by it at least three or four times on my way to and from other locations within the city, but for some reason it never once crossed my mind to poke my head inside the [...]

The Carlsberg brewery was my first stop on my inaugural visit to Copenhagen, and that was because .. I like beer! Probably more than I should owing to the history of diabetes in my family, but like most things in life moderate amounts is probably the key. But if it brings you a little bit [...]
Copenhagen, my reward for one seriously tough August (work wise), but I made it through the month and into September, yay me! My reward for silly hours spent working with spreadsheets, contract documents, emails and databases ... a little trip to Denmark. I'm totally overcome by both relief and happiness right now.
