Copenhagen

Copenhagen is the modest capital of Denmark, and seat of Europe’s oldest monarchy. In summertime,  the days are long and this colorful city comes alive. The harbor buzzes with patios, the gardens bloom, and there is a sense of enjoyment in the air. Like the local people, this city is organized, progressive, and seems to be predisposed with a pleasant affect. It’s a city that is unquestionably beautiful, but it also never feels overwhelming; there’s almost a small town charm to this place that contrasts with many big European capitals.
