Just got back from Copenhagen and honestly… what a vibe. It’s one of those cities that feels super chill but still packed with personality. The whole place is unbelievably clean, everyone’s on bikes, and there’s this low-key cozy energy that just kind of seeps into your bones. Nyhavn is picture-perfect (yes, it’s touristy, but it’s cute so who cares?), and I might’ve eaten my weight in cinnamon buns and smørrebrød. Found this quirky little food market at Reffen that was giving warehouse-meets-street-food-heaven. Also tried to blend in with the locals by sipping coffee in like 4 different minimalist cafés. It felt… aspirational. What surprised me most was how easy the city is to get around. Metro shows up like magic, and people are actually nice when you ask for directions. Christiania was wild in its own way—definitely a side of the city I wasn’t expecting, but glad I saw it. Copenhagen isn’t cheap (like, your wallet will notice), but it’s got that clean, organized, eco-friendly thing going that kind of makes up for it. You just feel healthier being there. Would go back in a heartbeat, maybe with a bit more budgeting next time 😅 #CopenhagenDiaries #ScandiStyle #copenhagen
