The geography of Denmark
A field, a tree, a field, a forest, a field, a farm, a cow, a field…
That pretty much sums up the Danish landscape, especially seen from a
car. No mountains, no cliffs, not even a lot of hills. Really boring and
monotonous. Denmark is flat as a pancake,

Winter
Sure, the first day of snow is beautiful, but after a short while it
turns into annoying brown muck. If there isn’t any snow then it’s
raining, and it’s pitch dark when you go to school/work in the morning
and pitch dark when you go home again. Last winter,I felt like I was
permanently freezing cold from November to April.

Janteloven/the Law of Jante
There’s many positive sides to the Danish mentality, but one that
bothers me is ‘Janteloven’, the Law of Jante. Humility is a good thing,
at least in moderate doses, but in Denmark it’s seen as outright
appalling for a person to have succes and – god forbid – acknowledge it.
Influence from the US has improved the view on being successful, but
talking about it, bragging, is still a cardinal sin.

Denmark’s “failed” multiculturalism

Plain-spoken politics, participatory civic culture and generous social
security are advantages that come with drawbackshe generosity of the
country’s social-security net has made people quicker to accuse
immigrants of exploiting it. Meanwhile, a highly cohesive and demanding
civic culture, which was the basis of Denmark’s liberal social-welfare
policies, has alienated anyone who finds it hard to conform. This has
made the country fertile ground for Islamist recruitment. Over 100
Danish jihadists have gone to Syria and Iraq, one of the highest rates
per person in Europe.
