To all foodies
As a food and wine lover, Copenhagen is an amazing city to experience gastronomy in with some of the world‘s best restaurants. Here you can find everything from street food markets, small wine bars, Michelin stars restaurants and of course Danish traditional smørrebrød. My personal favorites are the small wine bars.

A tip from a friend
I always tell my guests: you haven’t really felt the Paper Island vibe if you haven’t stepped beyond it. This neighbourhood mixes calm harbour life with good design and easy movement. In my free time, I like to stroll through Danish interiors at Ferm Living and Bolia. Or I hop on the ferry at the Opera. It’s the best way to see the harbour and feel the breeze.
— Ferm Living. Scandinavian interiors with a warm, personal touch.
Kuglegårdsvej 1, 5, 1434 København
— Bolia Classic Danish design. Think soft shapes and earthy tones.
Kuglegårdsvej 12, 1434 København K
— The harbour ferry (Opera stop). Your shortcut to a floating city view. Just tap and go.

Where all the fun is
Copenhagen and fun go hand in hand. The city is filled with fun and hip places that are worth a visit during the weekend or an afternoon after work. Everything from food markets, to picking up trash in Copenhagen‘s canals or a clarity when you are visiting the city if you ask me, a visit at Tivoli.
— Frederiksberg Gardens is the perfect cozy park to enjoy the sun or rent a boat.
2000 Frederiksberg, Danmark
— Green Kayak offers you to explore Copenhagen on the water, and fight ocean pollution.
Arsenalvej 10, 1436 København, Danmark
— Reffen Foodmarket is a popular organic food market with street food from more than 17 different nationalities.
