    I'd say it's much easier without kids as kids mean you pretty much have to learn the local language (Danish isn't particularly fun) due to them going to schools and picking up the language themselves. Then again if you know you are only going for say two years, then you can probably get by with just using English and only learning the basic words / phrases.

      But you should learn the language anyway so when a taxi driver tries to rip you off you know and can swear at them.
