I recently visited GOTO; Copenhagen conference. I must say I was really moved by majority of the talks. Also I liked everything about the city, the mindset and the culture. Conference had sustainable spirit, zero waste policy and major portion of food was vegan (which I passed most of the times). Al...

Copenhagen Fashion Week is quickly making its name known as one of the premier fashion events of the year. Sleek minimalism and functionality may be the hallmarks of Danish design, but CFWAW20 saw looks filled with colour and bold textures, all while keeping the Nordic chill at bay.&n...

We’ve been in government-mandated lockdown here in Denmark for a week now. I am at home with my teenage son; his twin brother is at a friend’s, also in isolation and my big boy, also a teenager, is at his dad’s. We are all deeply distressed by the situation in Italy. Healthcare ...

I’ve been fantasizing for 30 years about my funeral, ever since that 7 habits book asked you to imagine it. In the opening chapter, that particular passage brought tears to my eyes as, in my daydream, my nearest and dearest walked up to the pulpit and declared that I was “honest and c...

After strolling through the very heart of Indre By, we wandered into the northern part of Copenhagen’s inner city. It is mostly residential and full of tiny details that make every old city irresistible to a photographer. One can spend hours wandering the streets of Copenhagen absorbing t...

The phrase “Hey, that’s been photoshopped” immediately brings images of heads placed on the wrong bodies and such. So, yes, there have been some nasty tricks played with the freedom of digital reworking. But these episodes of poor taste shouldn’t rule out the role of digital ...

After nearly a decade, I am home for more than a few weeks at a time. Not permanently, but long enough to appreciate the effortless calmness found within the city. Per my tradition, I embark on daily walks through Copenhagen. And while the city changes tremendously by each time I visit, the sense of...

Last week I went to Copenhagen, Denmark. It was my first time traveling outside the country since the trip I took to Italy with my friends Corey and Amanda in 2018, a vacation booked when at least two-thirds of us were in the throes of romantic angst. On that trip we drank a lot of Aperol spritzes, ...

7 days. It has been 7 days that I’ve stayed in the city. As a newcomer, I’m impressed by how different Copenhagen is from the cities in Asia. Indeed, my thoughts on this city may change later on. Perhaps, it’s closer to tourists’ impressions. Photo by Ava Coploff&...

Before I moved to Copenhagen by the end of 2020, I had been in the city for a few days two years before. It wasn't much of an impression in that short time. I can remember spending some time in the Royal Library and trying to build my parents in Lego pieces. I had no references about the coun...
