What I love most about Denmark, is the availabilty to live a "fearless" life because of our healthcare system and safety all around. Everything feels more comfortable.
I love living vicariously through you. I’m a Chicago native. My partner is of Danish decent and we decided to visit Copenhagen in October and both immediately fell in love. We went again for a few days last month and now joke that next time we go, we’re not coming back home! Thank you for all your videos. They’re fun AND educational. ♥️
i hope you will come stay here, we need more ppl like josh and miranda here, and going back to the roots is good, theres always a bit of viking in all of us 😊 and not just because we travelled all over the world 😂
@@timdettmann4067 it's not that difficult either, if ur specialised in something, can be anything from the medical field being a doctor to being in tech being sought after director with a specialised skill in tech, being a chef idk anything u can think of that u can specialise in something other's don't have is a job u can get in denmark. It's not rocket science, just find something ur really good at it that others aren't then try to get a job in that. Their are other ways of moving here, be married to a Dane, have danish kids or be a student here studying long term hopefully get a student visa, then later on a work visa / permit for a job, rent an apartment then tadaaa ur here. I know plenty of people that are not from EU countries that move here quite easily even from asia their so many i know that move here that get offered a job and their company sponsors them or being a chef, being a student, being married to a Dane it's not rocket science it's common sense, just need to find ur way that suits best for u. Not saying it's easy but it's not impossible their are ways
You guys are killing it! I’m an Englishman moving to Denmark with my danish Fiancée and have been following your videos since the first one, it’s incredibly helpful to hear all of your experiences and thoughts and has been a real base of comfort whilst considering the move. Seeing as we’ve just had an offer on a house accepted in sjælland , I guess your videos did the trick, Thank you!
I dont get the people that instantly goes "dont like leave" as soon as something not 100% positive it said. No country is perfect, and we could all learn something from each other. Like danes, we could really learn to be more open and let people in, it is nice to have a different new view of your culture. Which is why this channel is so nice, you get a look into how people from a different culture feel and think moving here which is awesome - love both the positive and less positive stories you share.
Be course it get a ton of attention, try looking at this comment section, imagine how long you have to look for that one angry dude, still he ended up in this video.
My guess is that it's some national pride thing. That's been my experience when I've encountered that argument. Like criticising your own country must mean you hate it. I've always felt that highlighting some negative about your country is a positive thing. It's acknowledging that it's not perfect and that there are things that could be improved. Ignoring the negative stuff can just let it continue to get worse
@@uhorne dont be mad at him, his reading comprehension skills are just underdeveloped, since he clearly just sees what he wants in any given text :) Also, new things are scary, heaven forbid you learned something. Tho weird that he is watching this channel with that mindset
Look, anyone who manages to break through the famous Danish frosty ice barrier to end up becoming real friends of us seriously difficult Danes deserve all the possible help and support we can muster. You have done well and that your videos are very informative and great is just an added bonus. Keep up the good job and never feel shy to reach out if you have any questions.
I studied in Aarhus for 6 months last fall, and I relate to when you said that Denmark felt “right” to you! I love your videos and can’t wait to see more of your adventures around the country!
First of all as a long time follower on your channel, I am so happy for all of you, that you feel at home, and really settled in despite the ups and downs, that basically anyone can expect to experience regardless whether they're expats or stays domestically. Also, getting integrated into another society doesn't mean you have to lose any sort of national identity, cultural herritage or anything alike, you can still embrace being American and still feel like being a part of Denmark as well. Embracing a lot of different cultures helps us develop tolerance and understanding for our fellow humans. Just ignore those few haters who got a stick up their ass. They're everywhere in the world, but luckily not the majority.
Thank you for this video! Love your points and you give me a lot to think about. I have been following you guys since your first video. I am an American 🇺🇸 as well living here with my family since late 2019. My wife is French, we met in the US and Denmark is the 2nd EU country we have moved to. We like the freedom of changing countries but I have to admit there is a lot to Denmark, and Copenhagen specifically, that has given us a wonderful quality of life with our 2 kids. We are not at the “we are here to stay” point of that your family is but I get it. The Danish people are wonderful and life here is good. Thank you so much for so open to share your experiences and your journey!!
From a dane thats been following along since the first video you made in so happy to hear your staying and keeping up with RUclips 🤗☺️ So nice to see the things you do aroud our little country 😉 You make me wanna go see more like you guys do 🙂 Hope you get over the fear of Storebælt brigde at sone point 🤘 Keep up the good Work and just do what you do IT Works ❤️
Another awesome video guys, thanks for sharing in a very honest way. Its so clear to see how you all have blossomed here in Denmark, it wasnt just your finances that got reset, your whole lives, social circles, expectations etc was been wiped clean. Its like Miranda said, the social pressure from your lives in the US, before you left, really was'nt compatible with her personality. Dont change anything abour yourselves or the types of videoes you make, its soooo much fun following along on RUclips (and IG) and its such a positive message, how you're so happy and smiling and making us re-educate us about our own country :D
I enjoy your videos, dear people. Thank you for being an active part of the expats in Copenhagen:) you definitely inspired some of my adventures and i am looking forward to see how you would inspire in the future! Stay! Inspire! Be you!
Thank you so much for what you do. My family is planning on moving to Denmark and watching your videos has helped me immensely with coming to terms with the changes I know I will have to make. Keep it up.
Glad to hear that you are enjoying life here. I hope you will stay and not struggle too much with immigration. You obviously fit right into Danish culture and society. I have even learnt some Danish history from your channel, that I didn’t know about 😄
I'm a Dane. Born and raised in Copenhagen. As a teen, I lived in the US (just outside Chicago) for a year. My daughter was an exchange student upstate New York last year and my son is going to be an exchange student for a year in Michigan starting this summer. I regularly watch your videos and I love listening to you guys' perspective on everyday life in Denmark and some of the cultural differences. So thank you for the time and effort you put into this channel! It makes me very happy to hear that the three of you is thriving and have decided to stay!
You are absolutely right, can't explain it to people but it just feels like home there. Glad you all have fallen in love with DK and enjoy your jobs. Hopefully as a fellow American looking to suit and live and work there, that something happens soon on the job front to get me there permanently. Great channel and fun follow (on Instagram too) and keep posting great content to help me reminisce in the meantime!
My Storebaelt bridge story. My dad was going to a conference in Aarhus at the university. Me and my wife decided to tag along with my dad and mom. We have danish ancestry. We stayed a couple of days in Copenhagen by Tivoli. Then picked up a rental car and drove to Aarhus. We figured the bridge would be faster then the ferry to Aarhus. Wrong. A truck of pigs overturned on the bridge. The pigs escaped on a protected habitat island. They spent 5 hours hunting down the invasive pigs and cleaning up after the truck before they opened up the bridge again. We spent hours parked on the highway. Everybody turned their engines off and wandered up and down the highway. We had some really nice conversations with fellow motorists. Yes, crossing the Storebaelt bridge can be difficult.
Another reason to stay is the hot dogs!! mmm m m m 🌭🥤 so much better than the UK - we got sausages yes but nothing like them hot dogs and remoulade - loved them!
My wife and I would agree with your #1 reason - we feel the same way. We moved from the US to Denmark just a year after you and we also feel more like "ourselves" here. Your other reasons also resonate with me, safety especially. Tusind tak for videoen.
I am waiting the last few shows. The one about health is interesting, but I live in Florida, we don’t have to show the wax card. I do also like the health card. We do have that here as well, but I don’t think it is as easy as yours. I am 89 and it is not easy for me to do, so we can sure learn something from the Danes. I am a happy Danish American.🇩🇰🇺🇸❤️
Your videos are amazing. It gives a very open minded view on what Denamrks and Danes are. This video does make it clear to us some of the values of this little country that we should value. You are really a valuable asset to Denmark and I hope you will stay here. Mirandas comments about the pace of life was nice, A Danish philosopher, Piet Hein expressed it in this way "Live while there is life to live".
You guys are so awesome. Been following you guys since beginning and you are always bringing positive attitude and Well informed, structured videos here on RUclips. Glad you enjoy our little country and Want to stay and be a part of it. Keep up the good work and Remember to have fun while doing it! :)
Young Family, Thanks again for the follow up video on this question. I imagine you all will indeed sing Re-Sepp-Ten wholeheartedly the next time you all attend a National Soccer Game. All of the reasons you provided about your desire to stay in Denmark are logical and practical. I wish I could write to you directly to discuss more personal thoughts, feelings and questions. Jim
Love that your choosing to stay here in Denmark. You put in the effort and I hope that your rewarded for it by allowing you to stay as long as you want. And I would love for you all 3 to be able to make it feel like home to you, if that's your choosing for the rest of your life.
If I understand the late comment on Danish tests, please work hard to pass, and stay, because you are wonderful people all three of you, as positive and creative you are. Your inspiration is very important for a Danish community.
0:53: Aaww.. Mom and Dad had a little vacation..! 🙆♂️🥰🎉👍I'm sure, it was just in the right time and place. Great getting updated. Keep up the pep, vim, and verve. Cheers from Copenhagen. 👋🙂
Im 61, and i think you are about the same age, so we know, some things breaks down in our body. Then DK, is much safe place to be.But im happy you stay.❤
Some people just love being negative Nancy's. The rest of us love having you here and personally I enjoy seeing your view of my country as well as teaching me stuff about it that I never even knew :) I feel like I remember Takis being in Denmark for a short while - I wonder if it wasn't popular enough to stay. Wish I could find them at the store though cause I love the fuego ones as well
it is a small country. -I will say a quick hello when I see you out in public some day! :D Thanx for a lot of fun videos broadening my perspective on my own country!
I enjoy your videos very much. I’m a Dane who’s living the expat experience myself in Switzerland, and for some reason I find your videos the perfect mix of relatability: the experience of Danish culture and the experience of taking the leap to try out a new culture and way of life in a new country. Anyways, thank you for sharing. I always enjoy your honesty combined with your positive and curious outlook. And you all three have very disarming humor and charm. Only downside is that you all seem to be both better Danes and expats than me :) Kidding aside, I do find inspiration on this channel to go try, see and do more where I am. Be seeing you next yt clip. Best wishes, Emil
Good to hear that you're staying :) I've enjoyed your perspective on my country, and especially now where I've recently joined a company with far more internationals, it's really good to get a perspective from somebody with an outsider perspective.
I am so impressed by you guys. Your positive way of approach to everything is something, that many people could take a learning from. Give me a heads-up, if you ever come to Silkeborg - I would love to show you around.
So happy that the majority of your wivers want you to stay. I'm a danish expand living in Norway so I can relate to your situation and it helps me see these youtube vids. keep staying!!!!!!
After living the best part of a decade in Greenland 🇬🇱 and getting diagnosed with sclerosis, I'm really happy to be back in Denmark - it's been a long time, feeling like that, I still consider Greenland my home, but all things considered... Denmark is the new black ,and don't take me wrong - I love Denmark, that's the reason I'm back. I salute you guys for selecting Denmark and maybe I'll have the pleasure of meeting you guys at some point.
Glad you're staying, and the way you get around and look into things here, that culture test is going to be quite easy for you when you get to it, you've alreadyh covered a good portion of it already in your videos. And just keep at it with the language. And whoever says for you to leave, maybe they should leave, complaining about some things is basically a national pastime, if anything it shows you've become more danish.
We do not have a perfect contry, but we have a rather nice one. You´re so welcome to stay. After traveling in South Africa, it is a complete relaxation to get home again - we do have a really safe contry in that perspective.
i from time to time finds my way back to your channel, and i am never disappointed, i like you guys energi and your persective on denmark its always refreshing to hear someone say something nice about denmark, and i hope you'll be happy here, denmark has gained some very nice people skål :)
The reason it feels right to stay in Denmark for you guys is probably the sum of the other positive experiences you have had, some of the reasons you list is also why danes are described as a happy bunch :) security in all regards just makes you relax and enjoy life more, i know that is the number one reason why i love Denmark, on the other hand i often travel to the US on vacation with my family and enjoy it immesly even thou im alittle more carefull about what neigborhoods i go to.
Happy that you are staying. You are always welcome back to Sweden and Helsingborg. I live in Helsingborg Sweden I speak Danish, Denmark is my second home country. I also speak English
Hi you guys.love your videos and glad you are staying in Denmark 🇩🇰.we are mowing there next year from Norway 🇳🇴 my wife is danish and I am Icelandic.🇮🇸I have an idea for a video,do a dna test and explore your heritage .
I have actually :). But I already knew a bit, like needing to visit the small town in Italy where my grandfather was born. Maya and I are planning to go later this year, stay tuned :).
I heard an American who was a producer or making dance teams or whatever… he said he had a hard time in Denmark at first… but he now said, that he love Denmark, and it’s because the culture forces you to be your authentic self, whereas he felt in US people really don’t give a darn, and it becomes more pretentious, you need to show a version of yourself and not yourself, and he became quite affectionate about Denmark as time went on. So perhaps that’s a part of what you feel as well?
Many Americans (I am American) are trying hard to be special. But what's that? I am in Copenhagen for a few days now and "The Danes" seem completely opposite to the Americans. Modest and authentic.
@@thomasbarchen Lived in VA, Virginia Beach for 4 years and I consider US my second home at this point. Danish culture is based a lot about collectivism and if you want, you can look up the “law of Jante” which stems from litterateur, but had a profound impact in Scandinavia. It’s pretty much ingrained into our cultures’ subconscious (even though we hate to acknowledge it). Very tight and humongous.. and contrary to many American beliefs: we’re absolutely not socialists over here 😂 - the foundation for our modern society is heavily based upon capitalism. In contrary to the States, an election will have an impact on your life in one way or another. There’s currently 17 (which 4 of them are from Greenland and the Faros Islands) parties in the parliament, and the government is almost always a minority government which put them in a position that they’ve to negotiate across the middle most of the time. Personally I really like it that way, because it gets more democratic imo. since many views and voices gets heard, and sometimes the minor parties tips the scale in the negotiation so they can have a relatively big voice sometimes. And I can go right now and travel to Copenhagen and try to acquire 20.000 signatures for a charter to participate in the next election if I wanted to.
You guys are so cool! It warms my heart that you are having a good life here in tiny Denmark. It’s very interesting to hear about your experiences with American v Danish culture. One question: How do you cope with the danish looooooong and cold winter season? 🙂 Best wishes Claus
Not mentioned in the video but another reason to not leave Denmark is that Brisket is Danish and the family just couldn't want to relocate him to another country.
Takis, something to try next time I'm in Spain! Fuego does mean fire! If you like spicy potato chips you should try to find some "Chili Klaus chili chips", the black bag is the spicier one, not sure what shop sells them, but you can order them online.
It would be nice to hear a bit more about the Danish exams, personally I do not know anything about how we integrate people. It would be funny to hear what you think, does it make sense or is it just stupid? Also i really love the videos where you try to speak Danish, I would love it if you did it some more. And it would be really fun in a few years if you made a compilation video of you guys gradually becoming better at the language. I guess it would also serve as a personal motivation, when you can hear the progress from video to video ❤️
SOOOO happy you are staying =D Love your videos and your insight in danish culture and the way you just goble it up =) So thank you for putting Denmark on the map =)
I think its great to love where you are from. But that love should, in my opinion, make you want your home/country to grow better. If you react towards any sort of criticism with "Then leave!!", then you are trying to force what you love to stay the same for ever. Nothing stays the same forever. Instead, try to use that love to help make your country grow and turn into a better place. Denmark is great, but we can always do better. And im sure people like you moving here, contributing to our understanding of our self and the world can only take us in that direction. So thanks for coming, and thank you again for staying :)
As a Dane, Its really hard not to love you guys. I am personally happy you are staying.
Me too happy 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊
What I love most about Denmark, is the availabilty to live a "fearless" life because of our healthcare system and safety all around.
Everything feels more comfortable.

Some people just love being negative Nancy's. The rest of us love having you here and personally I enjoy seeing your view of my country as well as teaching me stuff about it that I never even knew :)
I feel like I remember Takis being in Denmark for a short while - I wonder if it wasn't popular enough to stay. Wish I could find them at the store though cause I love the fuego ones as well
it is a small country. -I will say a quick hello when I see you out in public some day! :D Thanx for a lot of fun videos broadening my perspective on my own country!
Denmark is lucky to have all of you guys. Great to see you happy!
I enjoy your videos very much. I’m a Dane who’s living the expat experience myself in Switzerland, and for some reason I find your videos the perfect mix of relatability: the experience of Danish culture and the experience of taking the leap to try out a new culture and way of life in a new country. Anyways, thank you for sharing. I always enjoy your honesty combined with your positive and curious outlook. And you all three have very disarming humor and charm. Only downside is that you all seem to be both better Danes and expats than me :) Kidding aside, I do find inspiration on this channel to go try, see and do more where I am. Be seeing you next yt clip. Best wishes, Emil
Good to hear that you're staying :) I've enjoyed your perspective on my country, and especially now where I've recently joined a company with far more internationals, it's really good to get a perspective from somebody with an outsider perspective.
So nice to have you here❤❤
So cool you are still there and loving it. I would have stayed there if I could have when I worked there years ago. It’s a very special place.
You are telling so many positive things about Denmark :) Thank you a lot :) I am danish with american roots :)
On spending: It may be less important here to 'keep up with the Joneses'. You don't lose status by being frugal - maybe even the opposite.
I am so impressed by you guys. Your positive way of approach to everything is something, that many people could take a learning from. Give me a heads-up, if you ever come to Silkeborg - I would love to show you around.
So happy that the majority of your wivers want you to stay. I'm a danish expand living in Norway so I can relate to your situation and it helps me see these youtube vids. keep staying!!!!!!
Skål!! og velkommen, igen! 😊
So chuffed that you stayed 🤗
hello from Hundested 🌸🌱
After living the best part of a decade in Greenland 🇬🇱 and getting diagnosed with sclerosis, I'm really happy to be back in Denmark - it's been a long time, feeling like that, I still consider Greenland my home, but all things considered...
Denmark is the new black ,and don't take me wrong - I love Denmark, that's the reason I'm back.
I salute you guys for selecting Denmark and maybe I'll have the pleasure of meeting you guys at some point.
We call our country 'smørhullet' for a reason 😃👍🇩🇰
Proud to have you 😊
Glad you're staying, and the way you get around and look into things here, that culture test is going to be quite easy for you when you get to it, you've alreadyh covered a good portion of it already in your videos. And just keep at it with the language. And whoever says for you to leave, maybe they should leave, complaining about some things is basically a national pastime, if anything it shows you've become more danish.
Haha, I’ve thought the same thing about the culture exam. I’ve inadvertently been studying for it since we started the channel :).
Nice to hear you guys are going to stay, Denmark just got better with you guys👍😁
Thanks!
So happy that you are staying. Big hugs.
Love that you have decided to stay.
We do not have a perfect contry, but we have a rather nice one. You´re so welcome to stay. After traveling in South Africa, it is a complete relaxation to get home again - we do have a really safe contry in that perspective.
You guys are awesome. Happy you are here. We love you. And if you're ever in svendborg again hit me up ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
i from time to time finds my way back to your channel, and i am never disappointed, i like you guys energi and your persective on denmark its always refreshing to hear someone say something nice about denmark, and i hope you'll be happy here, denmark has gained some very nice people skål :)
Fantastic reasons to stay , happy to have you here.. keep the quality content flowing
The reason it feels right to stay in Denmark for you guys is probably the sum of the other positive experiences you have had, some of the reasons you list is also why danes are described as a happy bunch :) security in all regards just makes you relax and enjoy life more, i know that is the number one reason why i love Denmark, on the other hand i often travel to the US on vacation with my family and enjoy it immesly even thou im alittle more carefull about what neigborhoods i go to.
Love your videoes. You have shown me so much of my country
We are so happy too have your in Denmark ❤️❤️❤️
Happy that you are staying. You are always welcome back to Sweden and Helsingborg. I live in Helsingborg Sweden I speak Danish, Denmark is my second home country. I also speak English
Hi you guys.love your videos and glad you are staying in Denmark 🇩🇰.we are mowing there next year from Norway 🇳🇴 my wife is danish and I am Icelandic.🇮🇸I have an idea for a video,do a dna test and explore your heritage .
I have actually :). But I already knew a bit, like needing to visit the small town in Italy where my grandfather was born. Maya and I are planning to go later this year, stay tuned :).
love to have you here :-)
I heard an American who was a producer or making dance teams or whatever… he said he had a hard time in Denmark at first… but he now said, that he love Denmark, and it’s because the culture forces you to be your authentic self, whereas he felt in US people really don’t give a darn, and it becomes more pretentious, you need to show a version of yourself and not yourself, and he became quite affectionate about Denmark as time went on. So perhaps that’s a part of what you feel as well?
Many Americans (I am American) are trying hard to be special. But what's that? I am in Copenhagen for a few days now and "The Danes" seem completely opposite to the Americans. Modest and authentic.
@@thomasbarchen Lived in VA, Virginia Beach for 4 years and I consider US my second home at this point. Danish culture is based a lot about collectivism and if you want, you can look up the “law of Jante” which stems from litterateur, but had a profound impact in Scandinavia. It’s pretty much ingrained into our cultures’ subconscious (even though we hate to acknowledge it). Very tight and humongous.. and contrary to many American beliefs: we’re absolutely not socialists over here 😂 - the foundation for our modern society is heavily based upon capitalism.
In contrary to the States, an election will have an impact on your life in one way or another. There’s currently 17 (which 4 of them are from Greenland and the Faros Islands) parties in the parliament, and the government is almost always a minority government which put them in a position that they’ve to negotiate across the middle most of the time. Personally I really like it that way, because it gets more democratic imo. since many views and voices gets heard, and sometimes the minor parties tips the scale in the negotiation so they can have a relatively big voice sometimes. And I can go right now and travel to Copenhagen and try to acquire 20.000 signatures for a charter to participate in the next election if I wanted to.
Someone explained this to me just last night.
@@thomasbarchen That’s funny! Well I hope you enjoy your stay!
@@Christian_Bagger Thanks
If you love live music, try go to Smukfest, either as a normal guest or a volounteer.
You guys are so cool! It warms my heart that you are having a good life here in tiny Denmark.
It’s very interesting to hear about your experiences with American v Danish culture.
One question: How do you cope with the danish looooooong and cold winter season? 🙂
Best wishes
Claus
Not mentioned in the video but another reason to not leave Denmark is that Brisket is Danish and the family just couldn't want to relocate him to another country.
So glad you are staying,love Danmark!❤️🇩🇰
Takis, something to try next time I'm in Spain! Fuego does mean fire! If you like spicy potato chips you should try to find some "Chili Klaus chili chips", the black bag is the spicier one, not sure what shop sells them, but you can order them online.
Please stay and keep up your videos on youtube. Love you guys
So laid back in Denmark, feels like the US back in the fifties. Enjoy I’m envious
McCarthyism? Sry' This danish history teacher couldn't help it ;-)
Takis is the best chips i ever had i lived in spain for around 1,5 year an takis was just always part of my snak bag at friday
So happy your all staying!!!, I really enjoy this channel :)
❤ Freakin love you guys. Wish you the best, glad to have you.
As a dane i really like your show and i watch it on general basis.
Thanks, glad you found us!
well its simple you care about our way of life and are active in it so ofc we like you
It would be nice to hear a bit more about the Danish exams, personally I do not know anything about how we integrate people.
It would be funny to hear what you think, does it make sense or is it just stupid?
Also i really love the videos where you try to speak Danish, I would love it if you did it some more. And it would be really fun in a few years if you made a compilation video of you guys gradually becoming better at the language. I guess it would also serve as a personal motivation, when you can hear the progress from video to video ❤️
I think we’ll talk more about the exams when we get closer. We still have a while to go.
@@TravelinYoung So how well do you feel you are doing on those exams? What do you find particularly challenging to get the hang of?
Make it short,, glad you guys are here.
Oh cooooool! You were in my hometown. The Tivoli - that place have a lot of soul.
It was a cool venue, first time! Also, the Radisson Blu has a great buffer breakfast so I am happy to stay the night in Helsingborg :).
@@TravelinYoung Great! The best sort of breakfast: However tired one is or whatever mood one's in, there will be something for you.
You should do one on Americans watching Danish tv shows, like Klovn, Matador etc
So happy you guys are going to stay!!
You are very welcome .....❤️
SOOOO happy you are staying =D Love your videos and your insight in danish culture and the way you just goble it up =) So thank you for putting Denmark on the map =)
I think its great to love where you are from. But that love should, in my opinion, make you want your home/country to grow better. If you react towards any sort of criticism with "Then leave!!", then you are trying to force what you love to stay the same for ever. Nothing stays the same forever. Instead, try to use that love to help make your country grow and turn into a better place.
Denmark is great, but we can always do better. And im sure people like you moving here, contributing to our understanding of our self and the world can only take us in that direction.
So thanks for coming, and thank you again for staying :)
You really cant change an oligarchy as USA
@@thomashovgaard3134 Everything changes over time. That not said it changes to something better.
The way the US is going atm is sort of depressing.
