A visit to Efteling themepark is not to be missed!

We bike a lot cause we care about the environment, most of us Danish people can afford rented cars, but we just like biking.

Again: The "Piratos" are German, not Danish.

Have you ever been to Bornholm? its a must see

A lot of the immigration laws regarding Young adults / adolescents were changed (to more strict) to prevent child brides.

Omg US are using fake danish doors 😂

I am afraid of getting worse, almost every moment, every day. Anxiety, tinnitus, disturbed vision, depression & buzzing hands.

The US would be the most popular country in the world if everyone had been there. Such a friendly, open and welcoming place. I love going there and the vacations I have had there are among the best I have had.

accept that USA is not one country. it is no longer viable to run it as a country. divide it up. the original settlers came from england to usa, to be able to prosecute according to the people in a much harsher way than they could in england. that has been pervasive all through the development of usa. especially since most people do not realise or know that the constitution was written to keep power and wealth in the hands of the few. religion is the easiest way to channel this.

As a Dane ... how often do your toddler lock himself in, as a joke?

As a Dane ... the extra door makes you feel welcome?? Yeah, we like people in our house ... but we have to screen YOU!

About the only thing I wish Denmark had are the windows that slide up and down and the screens and storm doors.

What about those garbage disposer blenders in the sink, that you see in movies? In Denmark we typicaly have a bucket for greens and fruit leftovers to use for compost, and now we hage to sort our trash in 10 categories.

Gråsten slot also have an open flower garden + kitchen garden. It is situated very close to Gråsten Gamle kro where you had dinner. The royal family uses the castle as their summer residents some weeks during the summer. BTW, I live not far from Gråsten 🙂

I find the fridge story funny. I have never lived in Denmark. Only in Norway, The Netherlands and now on Crete, Greece and in all my houses I have had a fridge with doors side by side, with a machine making ice cubes and crushed ice. Nothing special about that. Fridges like that from Samsung, LG and Whirlpool are sold all over Europe. All my houses have had floor heating and hier on Crete my floor not only heat the floor during the winter, but cools it during the summer.

I can recommend Neuschwanstein Slot in south of Germany, even as a Dane I have visited the castle a couple of times.

You can buy real american fridges in Denmark. there, ice situation fixed.

Buy the American fridge they have the icecube thing and salats Can be bought without pasta

Nice hair 👌

you are tellig me hwo a icemachine works? wtf.

Back in the 1970’ties in Denmark, the outlets in bathrooms typically were designed so that you would not get electrocuted, as long as you only touched one of the two electrical wires. And it didn’t matter, if you touched water at the same time.

So kicking a door in the US, is forgiving. Unlike an oak door in Denmark that will try to split your foot in half.

We do not have locks on the inner doors besides to toilet door. There is a decorative key home but it is not used. Why would I need to lock my inner doors ?

Danish people paint their rooms white because we are boring and are terrified to be different. The white trend is thankfully slowly ending and more and more homes are using colour in their decor.

what is the communication like thing beside the switch in the bedroom?

I think that Denmark has a better electric systems almost everywhere it is in the earth and not up in the Air like US, I think we can learn a lot off each other i love my ice cubes and cold water to , but I make the my self , we need to think off the envirement , I do wish we had Air con here in the summer , becurse off global warming it is so hot here 2 month each summer , I wish that I could live in a house , here in Denmark a lot off people live in apartments , I think there is good things both in US and DK homes tfs 😊

I love the windows. It's smart that you can wash windows from the outside without putting your life at risk. The screens are also handy, you can sleep with open windows without getting any mosquitos inside. Also I don't know why washing machines are so small in Denmark. It makes no sense. Our washing machine runs all day everyday.

Having a hot/cold air system around the house seems better than the older waterbased radiator systems we have in Denmark (which can only heat). When you just transport air around you don't have the risk of pipes leaking water out some random place under the floor which you probably won't notice until the construction has been damaged (I know several people that has experienced this). Newer danish houses do use similar air systems combined with heated floors. The heated floor can be either electric or waterbased. The waterbased are made from plastic tubes which holds for much longer than the radiatorbased iron pipes in older houses (which starts to leak in those 50+ years old houses). The insect-blocking windows also seems cool. As mentioned in the video danish houses usually just have doors/windows you open. No built-in insect net. Newer houses with the air system don't really have to open windows at all. As the houses are very well insulated the air system can easily control the inside temperature no matter the weather outside. I don't know if american houses are well insulated or if opening windows can be necessary. Also the air system makes sure new fresh air comes into the house which is much better for the indoor climate. I have to go around and open windows in my house every day (no matter the weather outside) to get new fresh air. I could install various systems to automate it, but it's rather expensive and I'm not sure about the effect of anything but a full blown air climate system.

Us immigration is as worse as in DK I feel like? Am I right or am I wrong? @Travelin' Young

i have a better fridge, with ice and water, you have much to learn about my country of Denmark

What US homes have in features, they IMHO lack in quality. There's no real attention to environmental considerations with insulation etc. Those outer walls are half the thickness of a modern Danish home at best. And I'm willing to bet that Danish windows are a higher quality in longevity as well. US home's takes the win on size and typical on leisure space aswell 🙂

What is the difference in cost regarding the heating system in the us and in your danish home - if those are even comparable due to the difference in yearly temperature?

17:12, what do you expect? These tests are easy to pass, and there is more to becoming a Dane than knowing the language. We have these guidelines to ensure that our culture does not get polluted by other nationalities, which may not practice the same democratic and liberal beliefs. I am sorry, but it must be hard for everyone to ensure the Danish culture.

Another nice video mr. Young. Once you've owned a fridge with water and ice, you never go back. Energy E or not. You forgot to mention the wash and dryer. US are all top-loaders, and Danish once are side loaders. All the best.

You should compare the usage of Kwh of a common household - our your own time in US vs DK.... that will explain alot.

I, a Dane who's allergic to many insects, also wish we had the screen on the windows...

The reason immigration is difficult, is because we have had a massive influx of people who genuinely hate our values, culture, democracy and the basic tenets of society. Instead of addressing the problematic culture-groups, the powers that be decided to make it impossible for everyone. So as to not offend anyone. In my mind it's weak sauce. We could easily grab a million Americans and not notice a difference immigration wise. So you're victims of 40 years of failed immigration policy. Living near Copenhagen I'm confident you are well aware what I'm talking about.

Task... for the nesx year, youll take a pic in your livingroom, same time, same place every day .. Would be fun to see the difference between summer and winter, regardering the sun light. Lets say at 4 o'clock in tbe afternoon. (4 PM)... Or 6PM ... at suppertime.... every day.... Are you up for it?

You can get the "Amerikaner Køleskab" in Denmark. Have had those for the last 17 years. And they are named "Amerikaner Køleskab". Just be prepared, they are not as economic as normal ones, when it comes to power consumtion and will have a poor power rating.

You probably also prefer the US tap water? 😉 What about the quality and design of the houses and the American vs Danish furniture design?

I Noticed how thin the walls was.

Fun to see your old house! -btw, Just saw you Wife and daughter at Lyngby Storecenter yesterday! :) -Big world, small denmark! :D

Yeah, Danish supermarkets are so boring! Especially the lack of diversity. You end up eating the same things over and over again. The lack of access to mental health care is a huge problem in Denmark. You can easily wait 1-2 years to get the right treatment. Hope you found some help, Maya.

Is this in New England or down the East Coast?

Jeg var i sand Francisco noen måneder. 19år gammel da. Folka jeg bodde hos, holdt på å ringe politiet fordi jeg var ute å gikk meg en tur. Jeg glemmer aldri skrekken i ansikter deres. Jeg har aldri glemt dette. Det går ikke bra å gå tur i sand Francisco ihvertfall

So - if you can tilt the lower window to polish the glass on the outside - even on the top floors - HOW do you polish the upper window??? :O

Nice details and always funny so see the small differences :) I vistied Boston and NYC last year and I noticed that lamps and other electronic devices in the hotel rooms always had one or two power outlets for your cell phone charger etc. Having lamps etc. with power outlets is that also a common thing in homes?

great episode

Hi Josh, Europeans in general do not consume ice cubes in quantities American does, it's a culture thing but not just eating habits, from the 70s low energy home appliances became standard, after oil crises in 1973 followed, (it hit Denmark bad at the time), so governmental action was taken to cut down on high consumption of oil, like electric home appliances from lighting, the 40W light bulb became standard, and the more efficient freezer and frizz as mentioned, but also on oil heaters to be more energy efficient! So 5 mins hot showers were recommended and "car free Sundays" in 1973!, before the mid 70s bathtubs were standard in Danish family homes, but post mid 70 showers only became the new standard to save imported oil at first, it became official policy to be more self-sufficient with North Sea oil.-in the end money. But in general, eating ice cubes in large quantities is not normal in Europe, and not recommend for dehydration since your body consume fluid to convert the cold ice to fluid and there can be a build up of bad bacteria in the ice cubes, -I know, it comes from not cleaning the ice maker. But high energy consumption makes it expensive to have a "Amerikaner Køleskab" in Denmark. I am a Dane living in the USA and I never use the buildin Ice maker at the frizz here, don't need it, don't like it.

This is interesting. I wonder if some of these vary on income and the age of the house. All the houses I've lived in go directly into the living room, but they have been older homes in lower/working class neighborhoods. I have an ice maker in the frig but they have much cheaper ones with no ice or water. I've also never had central air . My current home has central heat downstairs but nothing upstairs. :(
