I don’t remember who told me 7-Elevens are very popular in Copenhagen, but I wish I hadn’t told my tour guide this was the only thing I knew about the city earlier this month. I doubt I’d be impressed with a Danish colleague who knew only of the ubiquity of Starbucks in Manhattan, given the wealth of culture here.
We all accidentally utter things that can’t be dismissed as mere jetlag (right?), but in an effort to curtail further diplomatic blunders, I offer art-loving travelers a few observations about Copenhagen.
