Navigating the upcoming festive
season away from home
Dear Readers
I tuned into Soft Radio today, and the Christmas songs were already in full swing! Yes, it's November, and Halloween candy and decorations have been replaced by Christmas ones. I'm reminded of my first years in Denmark, and how I struggled. For most, it is a time filled with joy, togetherness, and warmth, but for many, it’s a double-edged sword of not being in their own countries. If you're celebrating your first festive period here, it’s natural to feel a twinge of homesickness. The familiar sights, sounds, and smells that usually accompany Christmas might be missing, but there are ways to embrace the season and keep your spirits high.
Love,

Lolland - a hidden gem for internationals.
The first weeks and months in a new country can be exciting yet disorienting as you adapt to your new life and surroundings. A lot of things can cause uncertainty during the first few days. In this handy guide for internationals, we give you a glimpse of what to expect from your new home. The upcoming Fehmarn Belt construction, new public international school, work-life balance that Danes are famous for, business opportunities, and many other interesting articles. I think it’s pretty clear to see why Lolland is fast becoming the newest international attraction hub.
Happy settling in...
Love,
