Do you have a favourite place in Copenhagen?
”I live in Copenhagen NV. I love this city full of people, fun and mischief. My favourite place in Copenhagen is Blågårdsgade on Nørrebro. This is a place where you can feel at home whoever you are and wherever you’re from. You can spend an entire afternoon in one of its many cafes without buying anything more than a cheap cup of coffee and plenty of refills and chat with the many regulars, artists and men and women of the world who frequently visit this street. If you have just arrived in Copenhagen, then this is the place where it is easiest to find a new friend, a new job, a new place to live, a new bike – or whatever you might need.”

Do you have a favourite place in the rest of Denmark?
”My favourite place outside of Copenhagen is the cinema Øst for Paradis in my hometown of Aarhus. This is the place to see films that are so strange you had no idea they even existed. Enjoy the unique atmosphere built through decades by people passionate about creating a different kind of cinema that prioritises art and outstanding experiences.”

Who is your favourite Danish writer?
”One of my favourite Danish writers is Kristian Bang Foss, because he is wildly fun to read. He also picks protagonists that tend to be underrepresented in most art and culture, such as the early retiree Waldemar in ’Døden kører Audi’, and makes us laugh and cry with them.”

Do you have a favourite spot in Copenhagen?
"I live in Nordvest, and I love all the opportunities that the neighbourhood offers! There are affordable second-hand shops (with good finds if you're patient), delicious and exciting ingredients in the markets, comedy and live music at Lygten Station, and green retreats – for example, the area around Utterslev Mose, where I often go for walks and greet the many geese and swans."

Do you have any good ideas for other activities in Copenhagen?
"I really enjoy visiting art museums, but I'm also fascinated by the art in the urban landscape: on walls, doors, and larger public spaces. Two of the artists I particularly like are HuskMitNavn and Storm P., who both use a playful and almost childlike expression to comment on society and put everyday life into perspective. I know there are at least a few of their works on walls around the city – maybe even more!"
