Welcome to Copenhagen.
Copenhagen, a city spread across the two islands of Amager and Zealand, is one of the cultural and environmental capitals of Europe. This is a city where, despite freezing winter temperatures, 36% of all citizens commute to work by bicycle. Consistently ranked among the world's most livable, best-designed and environmentally-friendly cities, it also has a hard-working business ethos. It's a place where English-speaking expatriates can quickly adjust to life and regain productivity, part of Copenhagen's multi-lingual workforce. Welcome to Europe at its best!
