Hi all!

We’re very excited to move to Denmark soon as lifelong Americans. I have a good job lined up, and we’re set on a place to live for a while.

Any advice from people who have done it, looked it up, had friends who have done it, etc? Just in general :)

    Don’t bring your gun, also public transport should be good, so using a car might not always be necessary / the best option.

      So, do they just issue you a new gun when the plane lands? Is the ammo the same caliber there, or is it all metric?

          'Merican here. Y’know (responsibly kept) guns can be a neat unique part of American life, but as dirty and carcinogenic and freaking LOUD as they are, I think I’d rather just get good with a bow, sling, axes, that sorta thing anyway these days. All the fun of hitting a thing with another thing from far away, but without the tinnitus, lead exposure, and expense.

          Especially if I could go to a place where crime rates are lower, work/life balance was tilted toward the “life” end, I could walk or bike places, there are trains, accessible education, less fascist subcultures, and maybe if seeing a doctor wasn’t a financial catastrophe even with insurance…

          I know everywhere has pros and cons but… Sheesh, between guns and all that?
