So... How Do You Make Friends in Denmark?

Hear other internationals share their experiences with friendships, dating and social connection in Denmark.

Building a new life in Denmark is not only about finding a place to live or a job. Friendships, dating and social connections can play an important role in feeling at home and taking care of your mental well-being. 

This paneltalk will be moderated by Nanna Hauch, a Psychotherapist specialising in intercultural couples. She will be joined by Richard Steed, author of the Substack Danesplained and Daniela Pacheco. 

In this talk, the panel will share personal experiences and professional perspectives on how to approach new relationships as an international in Denmark. You will hear about how to take the first steps towards new friendships, what can be different about dating culture, and how to navigate uncertainty, rejection or the feeling of being on the outside. 

Most importantly: there will be time for questions! You're warmly invited to share your own reflections and ask the panel on something you are curious about.
