The concert ended up being one of my favorites I've ever seen. The crowd was full of energy and dancing the whole show. I now plan to see other concerts featuring artists from abroad and Denmark to make more unforgettable memories.
Fashion:
When you walk down the streets of Copenhagen, people tend to wear solid, muted colors. This can include grays, blacks, whites, browns and other colors mixed in. As the weather can shift to being rainy and cold at any moment, most people wear long sleeves and pants with trench coats. The tops are also typically layered with a light long sleeve underneath a heavier wool sweater. Sometimes it’s the same color and sometimes it isn’t! Even with this being the common trend, there’s still many people that wear their own style and find a way to pair all kinds of fabrics and colors together. Much of this clothing can be found in the different thrift stores and weekend flea markets all over the city. Second-hand clothing is a popular means of getting unique clothes for an affordable price. On a side note, I’ve noticed a trend where teenagers wear baseball caps featuring the New York Yankees’ logo. It seems that styles from other countries and cultures have crossed into the Danish fashion scene! All in all, people are comfortable showing their identity through their clothing even if that means making their own path away from the norm.
Dances:
Like many cultures, music and dancing is deeply rooted in Danish culture. A few weeks after arriving, I attended a traditional Nordic dance workshop with a few friends. We walked into a packed room with people of all ages and levels of dance experience.
