you're so lucky to live there. I was in Denmark a couple of days ago. Everyone is happy and cares himself/herself. I discovered your youtube channel now and as I'm a software engineer your videos inspire me. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work
Thank you so much for the nice words 🙂
Thank you for your answers.
I kind of agree, only think I would add that coffee is insanely expensive 4€ for an espresso is insane 😂. Cool video as always ☺️
How could I forget to mention prices on coffee 😱
And you are the best analyst because you don’t rush words and that’s why it’s very easy to understand you
Alina you speak excellent English, great content too.
Thanks a lot!
Hi alina, I love your videos,
Hello 👋 Thanks, I am happy to hear that!
@@girllovescoding can we talk in Instagram dm?
Your voice is so cute, I love your English accent. Greetings from México. =)
Thank you 🇲🇽 ❤️
I spend more on self development than clothing too. You could adjust the amount if you want, but be prepared to invest in yourself is definitely a good thing.
Yes, but self-development is optional.
The most important expenses are the basic ones. After those are paid, people can decide for themselves what they want to spend money on.
Nice video 😊
Really 🤗
Thank you for watching 🤗
@@girllovescoding Hey I'm a college student 😃 and I am learning coding for Ethical Hacking (cyber security)
Any tips for me 🥰✌️
You should mention that on top you also have a solid pension scheme - which is very important in the long run. You may want to consider buying an apartment. Prices go up and down, but over time the trajectory is clearly up, so if you plan to stay 6-7 years longer its going to be a great investment.
Good point!
дякую за відео!
Дякую за перегляд 😊

Hi Alina,
Thanks for the detailed video.
Please suggest the areas to rent a flat for a single person that's a little away from the city centre.
The cheapest will probably be Taastrup, Høje-Taastrup, but it is 15 min from the central station with train. The close you move towards the center following B-line of the s-train, the more expensive will be the rent. Nørrebro is also a bit cheaper and it is relatively close to the city centre by bike.
Interesting I'm a software developer too and I have a lot of interest in Copenhagen
Clothes or education, whatever make you the most happy. For me, it is saying a lot of the person you are. And that is something positive. I find education more important then clothing.
Hello, cool video, in your channel about Denmark. Maybe you have some lifehack for searching job in IT in this country?
Thank you! Are you searching for a remote job?
All of type: remote, hybrid, office
Turkey is very cheap. Typical hotel room in Fethiye , Alanya, Antalya, Kusadasi, Didim, Bodrum during offseasons , January, February, March, April every year costs 150 tl to 250 tl with best sea view and breakfast at 15 degrees to 18 degrees centigrate during daytime and minus 5 degrees during nighttime with sunshine.
That's the reason why Turkey is number one tourist destination among danes 🙂
Great video! Do you think 40k DKK per month is a decent salary in the IT industry and to live in Copenhagen?
It depends on what you do. If you are a programmer with some experience (hard to say how much, around 3 years or more) then it should be at least 45k DKK. But again it depends on how good you can sell your skills 🙂
Hello, I've just seen your videos. They're fantastic. I would like to ask if there's lots of Job opportunities in the Manufacturing and Logistics industry in Denmark?
Hi, unfortunately I have no idea what is the situation in this field, but you can do a research on LinkedIn and GlassDoor app 🙂
@@girllovescoding Thanks a lot
got kinda confused at the beginning cuz you talk about danish krone but the screen shows dollars :S
That's on purpose so you don't have to make currency conversion 😅
🌹
After Oslo, the prices that you mention do not scare me! :) I rent a small 17m2 studio (albeit 20 minutes walk from the city center), and I pay 9000 NOK a month (should be 6600 DKK at the current rate). Also, unless you get sushi (which are quite cheap here because they produce salmon locally), forget about going to the restaurant if you have less than 500-600 NOK available (that is with a drink, which would make around half of your bill, because of alcohol taxes).
Wow crazy prices! 😱 But at least you can charge electric cars for free (?) 😅
@@girllovescoding I could, if I had one :-D but yes, electric cars are widely widespread over here because of all the incentives.
Norway..live in genteel poverty to cash in when you get cancer and the state will pay your way to the morgue...if you can call that living...
wtf? u only pay 9000 NOK per month (6600 dkk)? that's cheap i know that's only 17m2, but is that the whole apartment or just a room?
@@danielpedersen1688 that's the whole apartment. Since I wrote that, the price grew up to 10 000
Добрый день, Алина. Как с вами можно связаться? Недавно переехал по работе в Данию. Ищу тут будущих знакомых)
Sound expensive like you should migrate to other side of the world where the sun shines all the time and weather is warm with remote working and all. Heard of Bali?
I watched a lot of videos about Bali 😍 It would be a perfect place for me to spend winter there.
You should tag Graham Stephan
I like beautiful women like you who understand the importance of self development
That why I left Denmark after two years of studying. I realised how easy to be a student there, but hard to live as a full-time family. Especially when you aren't a programmer.
Understandable
Most computer , industrial, electronical engineers from METU, Bilkent, Hacettepe, Bosphorus, ITU universities in Turkey immigrate immediately to all cities of California, Florida, New York, Sydney, Melbourne, Toronto, Vancouver to become citizens and earn 10 times more income there. Typical computer engineer in Australia earns net 140.000 aud per year and immediately purchase 2nd hand Volvo XC90 Jeep fully loaded, triplex villa half an hour to downtown sydney CBD by motorway by mortgage. Good, nice life can only begin in Turkey as family with Middle East Technical University Civil Engineering Diploma wages which begins with 1000 usd to 8000 usd after 20 years pass in the mud and constructions in all around the world as turkish citizen.

У меня есть один важный вопрос, а какая у тебя модель монитора?😅
It is BenQ 27" pd2705q, but I would probably choose something different if I had to buy now
Do you do odd job or office job pls
Rent really eats it up, i spend 1700$ on 55sqm apartment in cph
🤯
Which municipality do you live? Rent you mentioned is quite cheap.
I live on Vestsjælland
How did u came to Denmark and howmany years of work experiance did u had? Please answer...
I did not come to Denmark to work directly because I did not have experience that was relevant in Denmark. I came here to study. I managed to convert the diplomas from my home country into Danish standards and it allowed me to study in Denmark only for 1year + internship instead of 4 years because I chose similar fields (math and IT)
@@girllovescoding Ok thanks! Do you think it is possible for someone with a BSc Cyber Security degree and one year of experience can move to Denmark with the support of a family (not relatives, but friends) inside Denmark?
Hii
I am planning to move to Denmark with 52,000 DKK as a monthly salary pre-taxes. I will take my wife with me. Will I be able to save around 8,500 DKK monthly?
It depends how much you will spend but it is possible with 52k
You will be able to save 18000 kr after food and accommodation
Graham incoming
😂
Also, you didn't write how much you put into savings and investments. For me that's like 1/3 of my income.
True! Now I have to make a separate video just for savings/ investments 🙂
$487 for that tiny room.. "pretty low" rent.. cannot compute :D At least Copenhagen is a very nice city 🤘
It is what it is 🤷♀️ 😅
Hello - what would be the average entry level salary for someone in IT Support / HelpDesk / Data Centre please
In Denmark / Copenhagen
Hey, check it on Glassdoor app, but I would say around DKK 35k a month
@@girllovescoding thanks! Glassdoor says 32-34k, other things say very different.
If you had a degree or a diploma and were looking at a position where they were going to offer a years training what do you think is reasonable?
It's all good and expensive until you go to Norway, then everything here in Denmark just feels magically cheap all of a sudden. ahaha
I should go to Norway ASAP 😂
@@girllovescoding But salaries are higher in Norway so pound for pound those in Norway are better off
Could you please tell , how much is the tax ? Is it 46 percentage really?
It is like 38% if you earn below 50k a month, from what I remember.
@@girllovescoding thank you for replying and confirmation.
No problem!
By the way... you're really pretty!!
Thanks!
Btw do you have instagram handle?
@@rohitprajapati8922 what do you mean?
Nothing...!lol
Cuz am an Indian science student.....and want to persue computer science engineering by a reputed collage in India...so do you have some tips for me...?
normal daily wages???? ......
Minimum hourly wage is approx $18, but most common is $30
Не хочешь жить в Сингапуре, для стартаперов это идеальный город
Была такая мысль ☺️ но нужно изначально поехать посмотреть как там у них жизнь. Никогда не была в тех краях 😅
@@girllovescoding здесь из минусов, то что немного жарко🥵. Но внутри здании кондиционеры выручают иногда. А ещё квартиры могут быть немного маленькими. Из плюсов то что стабильная ситуация с ковид, стабильный интернет и Public Transport is advanced so many people prefer subway&bus
@@theencryptedpartition4633 "too warm" sounds more like advantage to me 😂 How long time has it been since you moved to Singapore?
@@girllovescoding about 5 months😄
@@theencryptedpartition4633 how much tax do you pay? If it is OK with you to share😊
36% tax.... Welcome to California
Do you have sisters?
Oh, all good. Just checked your instagram and your last name, yes you have 2 sisters in Hamburg
There is no last name on my Instagram
@@girllovescoding Lastname on your site. So, am I wrong about sisters?🤔
Yes you are wrong
@@girllovescoding I disagree. I have proofs :) However, I'm willing to drop the topic if you are not interested in discussing it further
