    I just stumbled upon your video while looking for Danish language lessons. This girl Prachi is a hidden gem in my opinion. She needs to show more of her to the world. I hope she does just that. All the best to you and her.

    This woman is.....I don't know ... 🤩
    I'm both proud and grateful that she "gave some of her life to Denmark".
    She's like our Mary: We owe the country she came from 🥰🥰
    and if you meet Denmark with curiousity, you'll be met by curiousity.
    Danes get confused, if you're here, despite hating gender equality, secularity, high taxes and naked bodies... Why are you in Scandinavia? If you don't want to hang out with us, what's the point?
    My small provicial town was gifted a batch of Tamil refugees in 1984. We still regognize their different colour, but their children (and grand- 🥰) are as Danish as any. We couldn't live without them!
    Danes are a tribe - not a people, not a nation. Denmark has been big, even an empire, but we're now reduced to a A TRIBE! If you speak like a Dane, behave like a Dane, and live like a Dane... SURPRICE: There's no fåking chance in the world, that you're not a Dane. ( Keep the Swedes out of this, please 😉😉
    200 years ago, there were no Danes! It just wasn't an identity!
    People were Sealanders, Schlewigers, Molboere, Bergensers, Bornholmers, Icelandic, Lofoters, Lollics ... what ever. The only actual Dane was the king 🤣
    My kids can't ever become Brahmins or Shikhs, even if they were 5th generation...
    Though their Dad is English, and went to posh boarding school, and all that "hobnob stuff" - there's not chance our sons could ever "make it" in the UK. They've been brainwashed in Folkeskolen: They simply can't lick a#se 🙄
    But my kids could "make it biggish" in Nicaragua: Blue eyes is cool, but = Gringoes = mistrust!
    NO, they speak the local lingo, and they live with, and like the locals. But the poor sods are Danish, so they are not going anywhere 😉
    You're as Danish as you feel! I'm proud my kid's feel Nicaraguan - when they are there!
    I'm not sure, how I would feel, if my kids became MORE an other nationality, than mine 🤔
    Our "old" Tamils want to go home - naturally - but they can't take their kids - and their grandchildren are ... lost? Danish? International? On an other planet.
    Sorry, too many thoughts - peace, love and hygge 🥰
    And thank you for enlightening me 🤩

    The worst things about Denmark are the high taxes and the changing weather 😒

    What are the cooking utensils to take from India?

      @prachiabhyankar9122 Před měsícem +1

      It depends on what type of stove she would have, we have induction stove so we took an induction pressure cooker.
      We also brought tea strainer and a mortar and pestle because we didn’t find those here.
      Rest everything is available, hope your daughter will settle here smoothly 😊
