Stories from the Fairy-tale Land

I was born with a traveller’s suitcase in my hand. I am from Armenia, an ancient land of amazing beauty and big-hearted people. A few years ago a courageous Dane stole me over and after two weddings and two years of fabulous adventures in China and Germany, here we are settled in the fairy-tale country of Denmark. In September 2012 I am going back to the books and starting my Masters at DTU. Staying true to the travel spirit I work at Everplaces, where we build a tool for travellers. From my homebase in Copenhagen I am onto exploring the beautiful gems and curious traditions this land holds. To follow my adventures you can also check out my personal blog at http://movsisyan.dk/blog

Food & Beverage CPH: Eat, Drink & Be Hyggelig

By day, I work in IT Finance. By night, I eat, drink, and do everything I can to embrace the infamous hygge. A New York transplant arriving in Copenhagen in March 2011, I consider it my moral obligation to navigate, sometimes with reckless abandon, this amazing and ground-breaking foodie scene we've got here. And then? Well, obviously I'll write about it.

Emily i Danmark

After a six month exchange jaunt in Århus in 2011, I've made my way back on the arm of a gentleman and in the pursuit of hygge. In this city I fill my days riding around on a rusty bicycle, observing the seasons change and drinking an obscene amount of coffee. I enjoy taking photos, writing shy poems and telling lies to drunk men in bars. This blog is where I share our adventures and shenanigans as we drink, dance, eat and cycle through the streets Århus.

I do not wear a helmet and I have not fixed a single puncture but I know where it can be done with a smile. Follow me and you too will find out the best way to move around in Copenhagen is by bike, not because you can. Because you love it.
