Information about Denmark

In Denmark we use the Danish Krone, DKK, and not Euros. There is an ATM at the airport and at Roskilde University.

You guess that you will need some Danish Kroner, eg. to pay for your drinks around lunch time and the like.

We hope that we will have a nice and warm spring in May, but a weather forecast is available here:
