København, Take Three #HogsAbroad

At the end of January some friends and I visited Copenhagen for the weekend. It may have been my third time but I honestly could never get sick of this city. No matter what there is something to do, something to see, and especially something to eat. We spent our days wondering/eating and spent our nights exploring the streets of Copenhagen with a local as our tour guide.

 
We took to the streets with two more Canadians with a map in hand but decided that getting lost would be easier.

 Let’s just say it worked out well for our bellies.

 


Shenanigans were to be expected when you are around Danish Parliment… Or with us. But why take everything so serious? What’s the fun in that?

 



A stop on the Nyhavn canal is a must when in Copenhagen. Even if it’s freezing, sitting outside at one of the many resturants in this area is one of the coolest people watching spots. We later went in and talked/busted our guts laughing at our ridiculous stories that we got to share with new friends.

 
Of course you will find us dancing the night away where ever we go. Having locals show you around a city is definitely the best way to travel.

 


Our three hour walking tour was well worth the bitter cold. Seeing Copenhagen and hearing the history of this great city is something magical.

 
A stop into the Freetown of Christiania is definitely something to put on your travel list. It’s a funky area with some great food too.

 

 We ended our weekend in Copenhagen with breakfast at Café Dyrehaven. Eating some of the best eggs Benedict I’ve ever had.

I’m lucky I got to establish such a great group of friends and travel partners so early on into my exchange. I’m looking forward to many more adventures with these guys!
