SITES & ATTRACTIONS

The third oldest operating amusement park in the world is not just for kids! It’s really beautiful. Aim for sunset so you can see some during the day, and watch it light up at night. Tip: buy tickets online to avoid a potential queue.

Christiania
@ONWARDS
Once a squatted military base in 1971, now a commune of sorts. Full of street art and little shops. A total 180 in vibe from the rest of the city. The Main Street, Pusher Street, is famous for its open selling of weed — otherwise illegal in Denmark.

I had the pleasure of staying here during my time in Copenhagen, and their cocktail bar is such a nice spot for pre or post dinner drinks. (In fact, it’s award-winning). I’d even recommend making a dinner reservation — it was A+ and not out of this world $$$ like many spots in town.

My goal: make travel available to everyone in a way that transcends your Instagram discover page. While social media can be a wonderful tool for education and research, it is impersonal.
