"Hello, my girlfriend (both 30 years old) and I are thinking about moving to Denmark, as we've seen it mentioned everywhere as a country with many opportunities and a demand for professional skills. I'd like to mention that we are Italians, where over 40 years, salaries have dropped by almost 10%, and with the current lifestyle, it's not enough to live normally. We pay rent, groceries, bills, gasoline, and we almost run out of money. We would like to start a family sooner or later, something that isn't possible in Italy. So, for a guy (me) with 7 years of experience on lathes, grinding machines, and lapping machines, who has worked for Ferrari and Bosch, and holds a diploma as a Full Stack Web Developer, could there be a future? And what about my girlfriend, who has a 3-year bachelor’s degree in economy and finance and works as an accountant?
PS: I’m studying Dutch just because I love foreign languages. I can speak English and French too (B2).

kqcw60gYou are studying the wrong language then. We speak Danish

kqcwmrzWell Danish and Dutch have some similarities, so it is not a total waste of time, not that language studies ever are a waste of time.

kqcx1vfTrue, but wanting to move to Denmark and needing to learn Danish and then studying Dutch is somewhat detrimental. But learning is never a waste.

kqcxpg6And of course Dutch is universally recognized as the sexiest language known to man. Geef me een klap, Papa.

kqd570hDutch - The only language that makes Danish sound sexy.

kqd8bueWhat do you mean, it's a beautiful language, all you gotta know is 'Kanker' and 'Neuken in de keuken'!
Totally unrelated: Dutch has "Gezelligheid" or "Gezellig" which somewhat resembles "Hyggeligt" or "Hygge".

Just a little something I learned on the internet many years ago. flex

kqdouc2You could also get a danish tutor (online) for the both of you to get a head start 🙂

kqf45afDid you think COL would be less in Denmark than Italy?
I360Nosc0pedJFK (OP) at 2024-02-14 19:56:09+00:00 ID:
kqfi1foI think almost 30€ per hour is a theft.
Starkiez at 2024-02-14 21:11:59+00:00 ID:
kqfvaeqDo you realize while our pay is higher here everything is also way more expensive?
abc24611 at 2024-02-14 21:26:51+00:00 ID:
kqfxvenJust telling you now, and please don't take it the wrong way, it's coming from a place of love, but I don't think you're a good fit for Denmark, based on your comments here. EVERYTHING is expensive in Denmark. You think €27/hr is a lot for a private tutor, wait til you order a fucking beer.
Yes wages are higher, but they also aren't really. Trades are (in my opinion) not paid well enough in Denmark.
Oh also, the weather fucking sucks.
Take it easy mate.

kqgjrpuYeah sorry I typed “fuck off” meant “I can’t afford it”. Often I translate Italian slang as is and think after that in English has different meanings. My bad I apologize

kqg8953What's with the agressive additudue? That's a very low price for freelance work. If you want to treat Danish people like your slaves then stay in Italy.
I360Nosc0pedJFK (OP) at 2024-02-14 23:39:52+00:00 ID:
kqgjl1gNo one asked to be my slave, me neither. I am just making some calculations based on our retribution. Not gonna be disrespectful or aggressive towards anybody. My “fuck off” was a “hell no, I can’t afford it” gotcha now?
