Highly Hygge!

Yooperprof meets Cachaseiro!
I returned to Copenhagen for the second time in January 2007 for a quick four day visit with old and new friends. (My first visit was just in May 2006.)

There's something about Copenhagen and its people which is very pleasing to me. So much so that it's now my fifth most "tipped" place on VT. (The others are Vienna, Chicago, Oslo and my own home town of Marquette.)

Copenhagen has a particularly active and social contingent of VT-ers. I think that says a lot about the comfort and ease of the city - that here there's a significant group of people here who want to make it comfortable and easy for visitors. A very hospitable place!
no wonder VT people love it here!
Cozy and amicable - two apt adjectives for Denmark's capital city. This was once one of the great trading centers of the world, and the city still infuses the cosmopolitan nature of a port with the warmth and intimacy that sailors would have enjoyed after a long voyage around the world.

Port of call

Nyhavn was originally a warehouse zone for ships returning from Africa, China and the ports of the Balitc. For the first part of the twentieth century it was a notorious red light district, famous for prostitution, gambling dens, and drug abuse. Now it's the favorite postcard image of Copenhagen, lined with outdoor cafes, and host to convivial VT meet-ups on a regular basis.

There's a metaphor there searching to emerge!
It's a travelling-mad world!

 Hi Chet, it was great to meet you four weeks ago. Since you were here I have taken three other VT members to the Frankfurt Opera. --- Fine Copenhagen tips, I really must go there soon. Great that you saw Carl Nielsen's "Maskarade" at the new opera house.
