Danish's habits

Danish’s habits are rather different than ours. Actually, it is possible to notice that the organization of their day is not similar to our. 

First, if we take a day at the university. We have classes only the morning or at the beginning of the afternoon. No student can finish after 16:15 pm. Moreover, we only have 45 minutes to eat, twice less time than in France.

All stores close at 16 p.m. or 17 p.m. maximum, even on Saturday. The first time we visited a town on Saturday, we were really surprised about that, because in France it is the most business day. People finish their job rather earlier during the week so it can explain the difference shop opening. The only stores open until 21 or 22 p.m. are supermarkets.

The way of moving is also different. As in France, there are a lot of buses; tram and cars are used too. But it should be noticed that bike is more used than in France. Roads and side walk are suitable for cycling. There is one track for bike. It is also important to mention that walkers are not priority on bikes.  Furthermore, traffic lights are adapted to bike. Their involvement shows that Danish are more concerned by safety and environment.
