Why we chose to leave Copenhagen and move to Odense !

I grew up at the coast in Kerteminde on Fyn. It's a great little island.

I was in Odense this summer for a visit and I just fell in love with this beautiful city❤ I didn't really feel like I was in a big city it was so nice, friendly and stress free. Me and my family live in Iceland🇮🇸 wich I love but it has been a dream for so long time to live abroad so we are planning to move to Odense next year. Thanks so much for your video, I'm gonna follow you and learn as much as I can about Odense🥰🇩🇰

Velkommen til Odense !!

More green? Well, as someone once said about Odense: how can you put a city here, it's a forest!? But it makes a nice mix of city and village (Odense is also known as the biggest village in DK). But what do I know, I've lived here in Odense most of my life. 😁

I live in Odense too. it's a nice city and easy to get around by bike. I have lived in Aarhus, where I was born and Aalborg. If Copenhagen wasn't so expensive, then I would like to live there.

Odense are my favorite city on earth and it's for the same reasons you mention 🙂 big and small at the same time ♥️ i might be coloured because I grew up on Fyn, now i live in another great town, Fredericia 🙂

Thanks for the video! I am a Kiwi living in Denmark with my Danish partner and have been living in Copenhagen since March 2020 (yes, that March). My partner comes from Fyn and we have always planned on heading back once her studies had finished. We find ourselves in a similar position as you were at the time you moved. Neither of us have been big city people and we love quiet open spaces and things being less busy. I have always enjoyed going to Fyn to we are very excited to now be making plans to move over this year. We also want out kids (yet to have) to grow up outside of a city to gain more experiences and be closer with my partners wider family (who we enjoy the company of). Since I am so far from my family in New Zealand, it doesn't make sense to not be closer to hers so that has been a driving force to move to Fyn also. Again, thanks for your content and maybe our paths will cross.

My daughter is studying now in Odense... She seems to enjoy it very much. Odense is a really nice city

Funny to hear someone calling Odense a "small town" when im living in a "town" with max 40 people. For me Odense is the BIG city with all the stuff we cant get anywhere else then there XD :)

This seems to be a very nice place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

Wow!! I will move to Dk(Odense) very soon and i found this video (by mistake) right on time! Thank you! <3

Thank you for promoting Odense! the makerspace is re-opening to the public this weekend! (22/05/21, !PM, the O'Town Garage). I have been living in/next to Odense since 2013.

I'm from Japan. I love Copenhagen! I want to go to Denmark someday. Copenhagen is very beautiful city and food culture.

Thanks for explaining keep going 🤠 greeting from Morocco

Sou novo por aqui, e estou gostando muito do canal porque a Margo é muito simpática, e mostra a Dinamarca como ninguém mostra. Saudações daqui de Portugal 🇵🇹🤗

Hi Margaux I live in Odense (born and raised here but have also lived in a lot of other places) and I think you and your family will like it. If you are into football you are very wellcome supporting OB (Odense Boldklub) 😇

Was born I Faaborg, raised in a really small town in the country side of North vest Fyn, part of Søndersø kommune till I was 20, moved to Odense, and been here for 20 years. So yeah I never left Fyn :)

It really boils down to a personal choice of where you want to live and it is interesting to listen to your perspective of Copenhagen and why you wanted to move away from Copenhagen to somewhere quieter and less busy. When I moved to Copenhagen, my first apartment was near Nørreport station in a protected building built in 1815 with a lovey garden as our backyard. We lived there for 5 years and I still think it is a quiet city. My first impression and still is, it is a big provincial village compared to other cities with its own charm, history and relaxed atmosphere. Now I'm living in Frederiksberg surrounded completely by greenery and it is quiet which I'm already used to it by now:-). But once I get out of my house, Frederiksberg comes alive with its unique blend of energy, a sense of community and togetherness and lends.a certain beauty to it making you feel just right at home. I guess cities do grow on you eventually. Happy to hear that you love living in Odense, a city I have visited and I found it to be a gorgeous city with a rich history and wonderful sights. The most appealing I think with Odense is that it has so much potential to offer - may beat Copenhagen to be the next best city to live it in the years to come :-)!

Yes , i lik to visit one day Odense

First of all. Odense is a wonderful city :) I have lived in Copenhagen and suburbs for many years. It was great. I mean if you want a drink or go to a restaurant you just open your door and walk a few meters. But now I have moved to a small "village". I really enjoy how quiet it is. No neighbor parties keeping you awake all night. No cars making noise etc. I work in Copenhagen so I actually get the best of two worlds (Thanks Hannah Montana). It is like you having one hour to Copenhagen. The diffence is that you get to chose: Lazy at home and hygge in Odense or an one hour trip to experience Copenhagen. I think you chose well
