Relocating to Denmark from the US

2 years ago
Greetings, new besties & future compatriots!

I'm Joe, and I'm planning a relocation from the US to Denmark. I've compiled a list of questions that I have so far. This information would really kick-start my project. If you have the time and inclination, I'm all ears for what you care to share. Here's what I've got:

1. What was your biggest challenge during/pre/post the relocation and how did you overcome it?
2. What's your most valuable piece of advice to give someone attempting the task?
3. Any great step-by-step (or similar) guides/resources/tools that'd be useful for a US-based or non-European origin relocation to Denmark/EU?
4. Advice on cities/communities that are ideal for American or English-speaking ex-pats/relocating?
5. I'm an "intermediate" Russian speaker, and I intend to immediately begin learning Danish. I have some stuff in mind, but I'd love any tips or suggested apps/programs?
6. Any stupid rookie relocation mistakes to anticipate/attempt to avoid?
7. Protips or relocation hacks?
8. Any rental/contractual/cultural SNAFUs of which to be weary?
9. Did you ever regret the decision to relocate?
a) If so, what was the reason/impetus?
b) Do you still feel this way?
c) If you don't, what changed things for you?

Thank you all in advance...so, so much!!! I'm loving this education journey, but I'd still super appreciate the benefit of your collective wisdom and experiences!!!

Rock on, homies!!!
