I was eagerly awaiting the English version of the Worktrotter's Guide to Denmark, and I was not disappointed. In fact, being a new expat, I have been carrying the guide around with me while I'm settling in to life in Denmark. It is small enough to carry around with me in my backpack, and I find myself reaching for it all the time.

The worktrotter guide has saved me a great deal of time and effort when encountering a new problem, such as finding a school or how to go about buying a house. Instead of knowing nothing, I now have a great source of expat-specific knowledge to get me started in the right direction instead of wasting time on dead-ends. The insight here is particularly valuable because it has been written by an expat with the help of other expats, so the knowledge is even more appropriate than consulting a native Dane. Dagmar knows what the problems of being an expat in Denmark are, and her book has helped me get going here quickly! I only wish is that I had had this guide several months ago when I was initially struggling here. I ended up wasting a lot of time figuring out the basics of life in Denmark.

There is practical information that you can use everyday here, so keep it handy when you arrive. It is a great "pocket guide" to the frustrating problems you will frequently encounter as a new expat such as:

- finding work
- navigating the transportation systems
- understanding the Danish tax rules
- shopping tips to save money
- enrolling children in school (Danish and international)
- getting to know (and understand!) the Danes
- Danish language resources
- vehicle use and licensing information

There is no other resource I have found, online or off, where all of this information is brought together in one place and described in detail. The expat community is lucky to have this great guidebook!
