Denmark

You will undoubtedly experience many moments of what the Danes call hygge, a special word for comfort that means an all-embracing feeling of warmth and well-being. Hygge may come when you are eating with your host family or laughing with friends at a club.

Danes consider themselves to be thoroughly modern, relaxed, casual, and tolerant. While Danish families usually own a car, a bicycle is a more popular mode of transportation. You may find yourself using one to get to school or to go out with friends.

Gatherings of young people are generally informal-you may go to the movies, to someone's house, or to an ungdomsskole, disco.
