About Denmark
Denmark is a small country that has a lot to offer within easy reach: beautiful landscapes, informal culture, modern cities, and a large physical presence–its easily recognizable peninsula juts straight into the North Sea, serving as a literal bridge between Scandinavia and continental Europe. Danish children are encouraged to be independent, but are expected to take responsibility for schoolwork and household chores. This is a normal part of a culture that promotes personal responsibility and oplysning, which means “enlightenment toward lifelong learning.”
