Not sure if this was your intent but hell, Denmark sounds even worse than Switzerland.

What's wrong with Switzerland? I love it over there, hope to contract there someday.

Just don't say I didn't warn you.

this is specialised work for an international pharmacutical co.

Let me guess - you work as a drug mule for Taleban?

I'll bear that in mind, but could you elucidate a little ?

Ok, that was a partial joke. You might like it there, who knows? I personally find it very boring and all the rules setup for the sake of rules a true annoyance. Sure there are some benefits (lower crime, cleaner streets, trains on time, etc) but the price to pay for me is too high. Just one thing: I hope you are not a progressist person as you will feel like travelling back in time for sure (and so including all negative and positive things obviously).

Hmmm interesting, thanks for that.

I always get a *slight* sense of claustrophobia when in Switzerland, as though there's an unspoken undercurrent. But it doesn't bother me much and the benefits, for me at least, far outweigh the negatives.

Caveat : I may nolonger think like this after working there for a year or two

The secret to the Danish happiness has been found.

They have extremely low expectations for the future.

Then when they go through a year without getting fired, divorced, beheaded and boiled they are extremely happy.

I think that is not the right way of achieving happiness.

That is one of the reasons I left that miserable country.

Not bad for boating I believe.

Thomas - do you use your real name?!

I always assumed that person on facebook was Milan for some reason!!

It's like semi-retirement: you've got the money sorted and everything nicely planned, but it's boring.
