I think it was the currency problem.I sually have a certain budget and I know the prices of what I need to buy and it is ok.But in Denmark ,I had to convert Kronas in Euros and prices are different ,so in the beginning it was very dammaging for my budget.I also payed a higher rent that in Paris.

Bars are really expensive and so are most of the goods. Discounts are convenient in some shops. Netto is good for cheap food and Tiger for stupid little useless things and snacks

In Denmark everything is tree times more expensive than in Poland. However, if you'll find some work you can easily afford your basic expences.

I spent more than at home because Denmark is a more expensive country than Spain. Its standard of living is higher, so everything cost me more than in Spain.
