Btw Papirøen (The Food Market) is closing BUT the owners are renting a bigger place called Riggerloftet and the whole concept will become more than just food, so it will be like an artsy cultural playground with a lot of food as well :)
Johan hvor og hvornår vil det tage sted? 🤔
Johan vidste ik du så sådan nogle videoer

Jeg er da rimelig sikker på at papirøen stadig er åben?
Ehm, no? The place has been completely demolished. They're building apartments there instead.
I always find it fascinating how awe struck some foreigners are at the architecture in Denmark, makes you think about how much you take things for granted i suppose, well i can understand it since i'm the same way with mountains, but still. Great video though, and thank you for not getting a shawarma and then saying it's the best food copenhagen has to offer, as some travel guides do.
It's so easy to overlook where you're from and want to travel to other places but it's amazing to get to experience your home from a visitor's point of view and be reminded of how amazing it really is! Honestly can't wait to go back to Copenhagen, loved it!
It can get almost addictive, especially during the winter haha
I was so fascinated when I went to Copenhagen, so many bikes and colours ! This city is very different from anything I saw. But I know what you mean, I live in Paris and I'm so used to that kind of architecture and way to live that I forget it's not normal for everyone :)

Ahhhh Copenhagen is one of my favorite cities! It's amazing there!
Cam and Kels Thx for liking a City in my countri
Cam and Kels er det virkelig det ok det er den største danske by
Subiugetur ja men København er også den største
JFD Jonas From Denmark Nu er det Kbh de har besøgt, så hvad har det med at gøre, at det er “den største by” og at de glade for den?
JFD Jonas From Denmark du 100p jyde xD
Copenhagen is one of my must visits. I really want to go!
well i am from jylland but i think it's a pretty good place not a boring old city like they have stuff we don't have in jylland
Me too. I really want to visit it
TheRainydayvideo i live in Copenhagen i love it so much
I live 20 min from Copenhagen, and its totally overrated
TheRainydayvideo im Living in ther and i am from denmark
It's interesting to see how other people view your country. For us it's just mundane boring old Copenhagen, and for others it's just "wow look at that building!" Haha. I guess I do live in a beautiful city.
I'm going so stay there for 2 months on business for my company. .Are there places in Copenhagen (or other cities nearby) like guesthouses (the name varies from country to country... it's not really hostel, it's cheaper because you pay monthly...) where one can rent just a room inside a house or a building and the rest of the facilities are shared? Like kitchen, bathrooms. I lived in one of these before and I felt it was much less depressing than renting an entire apartment for myself, not always more comfort is what brings happiness, it's a very weird dynamic. It's cool being able to meet lots of people like that, and when you want privacy you just go back to your room, simple and easy. And usually cheap too.
Are there local classifieds where people advertise this sort of stuff? Or is everything done on the internet these days?
I am from Denmark, and just wanted to say that I loved seeing how you loved the country (or at least Copenhagen)
I live in Copenhagen and have done so all my life, and I guess that i have gotten so use to the city that i don't really notice the beauty of my city anymore. I just wanna thank you for a great vlog, and I rally hope that you decide to return some day because there's still so many places in Copenhagen to see and experience. Thank's for putting Copenhagen back in my mind, sometimes it takes a fresh pair of (foreign) eyes. I wish you the best on your travels wherever you may end up! :) Greetings from a Cph native.
I just fucking Love Copenhagen And Skandinavia in general!
i'm from Denmark and have lived here all my life. But i still get amazed whenever i go to Copenhagen!
Copenhagen is my one of favorite and first time for me to visited and I love here, I live in Luangprabang province , Laos.
So mind blowing to see a youtuber you follow visiting your home city, i honestly grew up in the building right behind Raya at 5:40
Oh my, what a beautiful place! The music you picked was really relaxing too. Loving this series! You're always such an inspiration. Much love! ❤
Ah thank you! I didn't know if you guys would like the music it took me over an hour to find haha but I'm so glad you do! :)
RayaWasHere oh noooo I saw this after I wrote my comment! I like the quiet, calm bits of the song for sure! Just not the parts like at 2:07 and 5:54... ignore me. I'm just one opinion haha :)
RayaWasHere I loved it! You always find the prettiest music for your videos. It always seem to match where you are in the world perfectly! :)
I love that you have an appreciation for everything! Tks for sharing this video, I can't wait to take my children there!
Copenhagener here - always so fun to see how other people experience your own city! Gives a whole new perspective 😊 Hope you had a great time here 😁
Really nice video. It's really something else to watch our own country from at a tourist's perspective.
Wow! You articulate everything so well. You show us everything so clearly, the montages are great, and then give us your personality and information about the city and how you travel! I’m really impressed! ❤️
This video was extremely helpful, especially showing the meal prices. I love board games so that bar is a great rainy day tip. Thanks!
This series is so exciting, I've been planning to do this exact thing next year and this is super helpful in which places I should visit and also cost of everything! :)
Come to Krakow next! Actually I am from Warsaw, but I am visiting a friend in Krakow next week! and i'm glad you liked Copenhagen, you should visit Aarhus next time, it's a beautiful city in Denmark where I used to study:) love your content Raya, I am waiting for a video from Poland:)
YAYY i'm from denmark, this made me so happy! I'm glad you liked copenhagen but you're right; the city is something else when it's sunny 😍😍
Great job Raya! Gave me another destination idea! ❤️ continue to have fun and stay safe on your travels
Yasss that's what I loved the most about Copenhagen; the architecture.
the lion part just doesn't really apply to Denmark, 100 B.C danes were running around with sticks and stones.
The lion in Denmark just represent royalty
Frida Aagaard was just about to say that! The lions represent royalty. It does not have any thing to do, with them being normal in anchient Denmark 😂
I think they were only in Greece, there are a lot of Lions in Greek ancient literature and they are very well descripted. They had to live in the mountains to hide from civilisation before they got extinct...
100 BCE is when they went extinct in Greece. According to Wiki, there were still lions in the Caucasus many years later. However there were lions in central/southern Europe until somewhere in the stone age. Their remains have never been found in Denmark.
And 100 BCE, Denmark was in the Roman Iron Age, trading with the Romans, and might have paid tribute to them as well. A long way away from "sticks and stones"
it took a long time for denmark to develop, and denmark definitely didn't trade with the romans during 100 BCE, i mean all the way up to the viking age Denmark wasn't even a country.
The Danes are mentioned for the first time in 600 AD, before the Viking age.
girl ur video is amazing........you summed up copenhagen in this video really well......keep up the great work......
"look at this, how is this real?" What, an ordinary Danish street? Guess you take some things for granted as a Dane :)
Exactly what I thought... We do indeed take Copenhagen for granted :)
Haha jaaa! :o
Battle
Zzz
Yup same man/jeg ser det næsten hver dag
I find it so funny to watch these videos, i live in Copenhagen myself, and i bike through the city every single day to go to school so it's so fun to see you guys being so overwhelmed by the city! You don't think so much about when you live there hahah
So cool that you went to Copenhagen and stayed at the hotel where I usually stay when I go there! I hope you went to Christiania, probably the coolest thing/place in Copenhagen! I hope you come to Sweden next!!! Scandinavia is underrated for sure!
I live in Copenhagen, and i loved when you called it a LITTLE food market, because it´s like one of the biggest food markets in Denmark!
Interesting watching this as a dane. I work 200 meters from Nyhavn and I take a break from work every day walking in the garden with the little castle. It's like watching it with fresh eyes. Love your energy.
Take care.
Great Travel Video!
Nice to see the urban surroundings of Cobenhagen, Denmark flash by with a moving camera to a large extent. It's something about the moving camera that makes some shots come alive in this video and therefore seem interesting. Odd thing there with the fact about the wild lions roaming Europe before they became extinct. Delicious food you had there and I can completely agree upon the fact that there is something about the colourful houses in Cobenhagen that truly can elevate mood!
I was in Cobenhagen some years ago and got some of the vibes you describe in this video. But I was exhausted due to my long trip previously and couldn't entirely appreciate the Cobenhagen experience. But I reacted to the cozy houses with colourful palette, I slept pretty close to the place with the little mermaid.
I loved the free-spirited vibe in the city!
Now what I really liked about your video was the positive mood. I think people need more positivity in their lives and it's refreshing to see someone with a happy face not something you always see on the streets where I use to walk. This is because I'm a little low on money for the moment and I'm starting to save money for future trips!
Something that can be improved? Not much. I would have loved to see a little bit more of Cobenhagen though. A longer video. I didn't get to see the full city when I was there. Christiania and Tivoli Garden were two things I have thought I would have loved to see but I didn't get the time to see those places when I was there.
Fun thing that you actually go to places others can vote for which creates a cosmopolitian vibe.
Good initiative!

Take care!
Amazing video, very informative, you are just bubbly person. Keep up the great work! So much love from London.
copenhagen is one of my favorite cities in the world AND favorite european capital! such good times there Xxx
HI Raya! I'm actually going backpacking in Europe on Monday! My first time too. As a female solo traveler. Thanks for the tips, info and inspo!
Wow amazing, have a great time! xx
From a guy who live in Denmark, you most definitely should come visit my country in the summer, it's really just magical and full of life.
I love the comment sections on Rayas' videos! It's just a bunch of like minded travellers sharing their favourite cities giving me more travel inspiration to my ever growing bucket list! ❤️such a lovely community
This comment!!! This incredible loving community we have all created is honestly what makes me want to make videos - I'm soo lucky to have you all to share my travels and life with ❤️
Great video Raya it nice to have this along with Louis and the team it a great mix you are going to love Prague I went there two months ago fantastic
Hey raya, I want to tell you that you are a great inspiration for me. I love that you stand out and don't just follow the mainstreem things ( for girls/woman to do make up things on youtube for example) I love it
+esmeevogels1990 thank you! That means so much to hear! I struggle with this sometimes as I think having a beauty or fashion channel would get me so many more views but this is what I'm passionate about and what makes me feel alive! ❤
I agree, all these makeup channels get soo much attention compared to travel channels.. Travel should be more interesting than makeup in my opinion :D
You could still make another channel on makeup, or hair, but post when you like. Just a suggestion though =)
I've been loving this series so much Raya 👍🏻🤗
+Andre Nicola thank you!! I've been dreaming of it for over a year so I'm so glad you guys love it! 😄
Ok so I am somewhere in Europe...and I am about to take my seat...and I ask this beautiful girl "ARE YOU RAYA?" I am sitting next to RAYA!! HOW FUN!!!
Absolutely enjoyed watching this video, especially because I'm from Denmark. It makes me think about how much I take for granted, and almost find boring, here in Denmark
We’ll be there in a couple of weeks. Thanks for featuring the castle, I like castles. I’m a subscriber for sure!
I love this backpacking-voting thing you're doing at the moment - awesome idea!
Thank you for taking me to Copenhagen! Peace and safe travels.
My sister went to Prague and said it was beautiful but suuper touristy. I'm actually really curious about Krakow so hope you get to go there. Amazing videos, I'm loving them!
I'm happy you enjoyed denmark we are happy to have people from so many different country's here
Definitely putting this place on my bucket list! Love your videos Raya ☺️
+Naomi E Ulici it's soo amazing, would highly recommend! Thank you! 😄
I vlogged Copenhagen just a couple of weeks ago! Absolutely fell in love with the place!
wow that place looks so incredible its literally so beautiful I wish I could go omg
All the famous stories, are not based in northern Europe because of its looks. Europe was, for a really long time, the most powerful part of the world. They didn't have to think about survival. They could focus on art.
And most of the wellknow fairytales are picked up from the Grimm Brothers (german) or HC Andersen (danish)
I was born and raised in denmark but I’ve been living in texas for the last 7 years this video makes me so homesick
it feels so nice t hear how amazed people are when you are danish like me
Awesome! I just came back from CPH and am already missing this beautiful city!
I love the spontaneity of what you're doing right now!
Also, I live in Sweden and planning on going to Denmark for the first time soon (can't believe I haven't been yet.) For sure going to that vegan brunch place! SO glad you're enjoying Scandinavia =)
Having a lot of fun picking where you travel to, it's almost like we're travelling with you 😂 Great video Raya, Copenhagen looks beautiful 😍
Im from Copenhagen, its nice to see you here
Thanks for this video. I'm going to visit Copenhagen in three weeks and I'm so exited 🙄
I love that you went to bastard cafe (the board game one) 😱😍 it's one of my favourites in Copenhagen 😁 also next time you visit, you should check out a place called Café Nutid which a café entirely run by volunteers and all of the profit goes to charity 🙈
Have you been to Burano in Italy? Now those are some amazing colorful houses!! Copenhagen is so beautiful I miss it so much ❤️❤️ I'm glad you enjoyed it! Can't wait to see where you travel next!!
Loving the series, great way of seeing European countries! x
Am absolutely loving these vlogs, Raya
Brazil here! Copenhagen is amazing, i loved!
Raya your videos are so inspiring and really lift my day - hello from Melbourne Australia
+Lachie Tindall thank you! That means so much!
The street food place (food market) is actually just changing its location! Its one of my fave places in CPH so i recommend everyone visiting it
yay great to see you loved Denmark!
So happy you had a great time!! Please come back to Scandinavia!!:)
I love this series and that you include prices! Thank youuu
I'm so glad you like it! I thought it could help people plan their own trips to get an idea :)
Visual nirvana as usual. And spot on music. Thank you Raya
Thanks! :)
Absolutely loves every single second of this video, you looks so stunning and seeimg you so happy, makes me feel more happy❤
+Georgina Angus thank you Georgina! 😄❤
Cool video, that bar where you can play boardgames is lit!
can you do like a what's in my backpack video for the trip? I would really like to know what the travel essentials are and how little- how much you need to bring! thank you and i love your vids c:
+Alylia Pekkala yes I am 100% making a video on what I brought! Wanted to do it after so I could tell you guys what I actually brought!
I live in Europe and you make me wanna travel so much. Thanks for those beautiful videos I've never been to Copenhagen, it looks amazing !
And that vegan food looked so good !
Btw, I live in Strasbourg, it's in France, just next to Germany, it's an amazing city, you should come, I'm sure you would like it 😘
Elise Kobler that is a very beautiful city 😍
Hey Raya! I'm so glad to see that you like my city. Pls come back another time
First time viewer here. Cool vlog. I love anything to do with travel.
omg sooooo beautiful. This is now on my bucket list!
Great to see Copenhagen right before our trip. It's sad that they will be closing the market for good. For sure we are going to check that out.
Loved this Raya! Do you know if that food market is closing on NYE? I’ll be in Copenhagen on January 4th and it looked so cute!
Danmark/Copenhagen is best place to visit and Raya E enjoyed whole trip. We waiting for next DK trip and video. 🙂🤘🤙
Amazing video, Your one of my favorite CZcamsr! Keep it up!!!
Thank you! :)
I need to put Copenhagen on the "place to go list" awesome; recently went to Amsterdam and south of Amsterdam called Haarlem, neat town only a short train ride away
If you like colourful houses, you should head to Burano, a small island of Venice!
Not a lot of people know it but it's wonderful
I really enjoy this series, it's nice change compare to your other vlogs!
Thank you! so glad you guys like it! :)
Your technique of holding the camera is PERFECT !!
You shoud be in copenhagen right now, the weather is sooo nice and warm!!!!!
I’m from Denmark and i’m so happy you like it here
I’m from Denmark, if you ever consider coming back, you should definitely check out Nørrebrogade it’s such a cool street with a lot of culture and people and probably my favorite spot so I would definitely recommend going there
I dream of places like this ..
Can’t wait to go in December
Oh wow, it's so weird to see another person experiencing what has been the norm for you your entire life. Welcome to Denmark! I'm really happy that you enjoyed Copenhagen :-).
I absolutely love these videos! You should go to Norway sometime
I am from Denmark Copenhagen its Amazing too see youtuber’s that is in Denmark 😍❤️
One of my favorite utuber.....this was a different video..I love Copenhagen... awesome video...
love this series! but I don't have twitter, you also can do a poll on the end of each video
Omg I was just in Copenhagen 2 weeks ago with friends, I'm sad I missed you, would've been so nice to meet you! We were 4 and the best option we found was Airbnb, it was cheaper per night per person (around 30 euros for us but it was because we were picky but there was definitely cheaper) AND we saved money by not eating out and cooking instead 😊 I liked Copenhagen and it was beautiful but I was in Dublin right before that and the difference in how people interact with you is what made me not like Copenhagen as much, Irish people are so much more warmer and welcoming, day or night, the pub atmosphere is so nice, it's hard to beat that 😬
Raya you are amazing!
Cant wait to be here next year!!!!!!
I'm from denmark myself (though, from Esbjerg in the west). It is really funny to see someone this excited about Copenhagen, since I myself is really "meh" about the being there. :)
One of your best videos Raya! Great one ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Lisa! :D
Copenhagen is great in the summer! I think you should go to Amsterdam next!
I just moved back to Antwerp, after living in Copenhagen for 5 months and this vlog just takes me right back!! Nice to see you had an amazing time :)
I'm glad you loved Copenhagen. It really is a beautiful city - a happy Dane :)
i just have a question, i live on the west coast of canada and everywhere ive traveled has been on the west coast, but in places where english isnt the primary language do people still speak english easily like when you go to restaurants and stuff, sorry if this seems like the dumbest question i just honestly wouldnt know, ive always wanted to travel but i dont know if i need to learn other languages or not??
