    I was pleasantly surprised how cheap your rent is!! In London, most students pay nearer £300 pw for a room with a shared kitchen. This was such an interesting and useful video!!

      You don't have to spend that much in London. I'm a student at UCL and I'm spending 132 pw.

      I pay £170 a week in Central London, so can definitely be cheaper then this

      In Leeds most students I know in private shared housing pay ~£80-£120 for rent & bills so as Lydia says Denmark is much more expensive in comparison

      genuine question, how??? I will be moving to London in September for uni and all the accommodation I can find online is insanely expensive, even receiving a full maintenance loan and working part time still wouldn't be enough with these prices :(

    Please, don't feel bad for being able to pay for all the expenses. You work really hard to cover all the costs and have a good lifestyle whilst studying.🙃
    Of course, lots of students struggle to maintain high living standards even though they have other jobs.
    Therefore, it's great that you appreciate what you have but you should never be ashamed of that. :)

    As a Dane, I would like to add that £215 pw for student accommodation is the most insane thing I've ever heard !! I'd say the average is about half of that.

    Just one comment: Don’t be embarrassed of your financial ability. Be proud. If living by the Danish spirit of the law of Jante, keep the “proud” feeling to yourself. A typical Dane making a video like this would simply state the fact. No more no less. Although being in Denmark (Dane or non-dane) you are of course free to do what ever you like! I would go for the “proud”, even though I am Danish.

  • @Mike-zx1kx
    @Mike-zx1kx Год назад

    Just a small easy cost saver if you are going to stay in Copenhagen for a longer period. With a fairly high frequency Danish police have bicycle auctions. If you are staying here for more than a few months I would recommend going there and bid in cash to get a cheap bike. Ask a Dane where to find the auctions. You can look at the bikes before going under the hammer. You can get a functioning bike for 200 Kroner, 500 for a durable functioning bike and 1000 (and upwards, there can be pro bikes there as well and then 15.000 can be called) for a good quality bike whether you go for speed or durability.

    But a question, since there are less courses in english, how difficult is to apply from a EU country?
    Thank you

    Compared to prices in Boston this is sooooo cheap oh my god. You’d pay $8-10 for a beer here, $15 for a cocktail, my 1 bed 1 bath right outside the city is $2100 per month, a typical entree at a normal restaurant is probably $22-28, a coffee will usually run you around $2-5 at a typical cafe, etc. anyone else in the US relate? Makes me feel better about maybe studying in Copenhagen. Thinking about moving their w my partner in the next 2 years :)
