About us

Who are we?

We are Antonina and Rasmus—partners in life and in our mission to make Denmark more accessible to newcomers. Antonina is a teacher with a Master’s Degree in Applied Linguistics, speaks five languages fluently and currently teaches languages at a Danish primary school. Rasmus, a native Dane with a background in Biotechnology and a passion for making a difference, has been building websites and been working with non-profits for years.

We met on an Interrail trip through Europe in 2019, and our journey together led us to Denmark. As Antonina learned Danish and we navigated life here, we realized how challenging it was to find quality resources for newcomers. So, we decided to create the tools we wish we had ourselves. We created Denmark&Me—a platform dedicated to helping others like us.

What are we trying to do?

Our mission at Denmark&Me is to guide you through everything it takes to thrive in Denmark, by providing high-quality resources and guidance. We believe the journey of moving to Denmark should be one of excitement and opportunity, not frustration and confusion.

We started Denmark&Me to create the resources we wished we had, helping others navigate the complexities of Danish life with confidence and ease.

We are definitely still working on it, but the goal of Denmark&Me is to offer more than just language learning materials—we want to provide a complete guide to life in Denmark. Our content is built on personal experience and expert knowledge, offering practical, actionable advice on everything from mastering Danish, to making friends and finding a job.

We are passionate about supporting international residents in Denmark, especially in light of policy changes in recent years that make it harder for expats to stay and thrive here. We believe that Denmark should embrace the talents and contributions of those who choose to make this country their home, and we’re here to support that transition with everything we‘ve got.

That’s also why our intention is to make all of our content available to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances. While we need to keep the lights on, we never want money to be the reason why someone can’t succeed in Denmark. If you truly can’t afford the cost of some of our materials, we will make sure they are available to you for free.
