I’m going to move to (probably) Århus beginning of January, and I got a few question specifically about the city and live in Denmark in general. If there is a better community for stuff like this let me know!
Live in Denmark
-
I probably have my apartment secured but are there general things to look out for?
-
Are there any must-have-apps for daily live? I already found the DSB app, rejskort and rejsplanen app, but is there for example something for national/local alerts (Germany and Finland have that for example).
-
I already have one specific question: why does DSB offer both to check in and out for a trip and tickets for a specific route?
-
Any other things I might not be aware of? I already lived other Scandinavian countries, so I don’t expect much if a culture shock.
Live in Århus
-
I’ll be trying to join a pen&paper group. Any advice where to go looking?
-
Any areas to avoid?
-
Any hidden gems? Might be a favorite café, bar, beach etc.
-
Any other useful things?
The Midttrafik Live app can show you where the busses in Aarhus are, and how delayed they are.
MobilePay is the payment app of choice for most smaller businesses. I think it requires a danish bank account though.
If you plan on taking public transit a lot, get a Rejsekort.
