1. When does Copenhagen feel most like your city?
"I've lived in Copenhagen since 2000 and it feels most like my city when I come home. I spend a lot of time on the road, but when I come home to Copenhagen - that's where my bike is. It's where I shop at my Rema, where my Bauhaus is - all those little everyday things."
The unique thing about Copenhagen is that there are so many cool museums. For example, we went to the Enigma Post and Telegraph Museum, which sounds a bit boring on paper, but my kids had a blast.
2. What place in the city do you always return to?
"I've lived on Istedgade for 15 years, so Vesterbro is where I've lived for the longest time - and is the place I always return to. It's just a little more buzzing at the main train station than at Brønshøj Torv. It's where my favorite guitar shop is located and there are still several coffee shops left from when I lived there. For example, I really love Sort Kaffe og Vinyl, which not only makes really good coffee, but also has great food and records. In a way, it's the epitome of Vesterbro, because everything is kind of pressed together in one place."

3. What hidden gem is almost too good to share?
"I spent the first week of summer vacation alone with my kids while my wife was working, and I introduced museum compulsion - we went to one museum a day. The unique thing about Copenhagen is that there are so many cool museums. For example, we went to Enigma - Museum of Post, Telecommunications and Communication, which sounds a bit boring on paper, but my kids had a blast in there. My best tip is to try and explore some of the places that are right under your nose."

4. What is your top tip for a unique experience in Copenhagen?
"I almost have to strike a little blow for Brønshøj. Go out here and take a walk around Degnemosen or Kirkemosen. There's some really beautiful nature out here, and it's so close to Copenhagen. You don't have to go all the way to Dyrehaven, just hop on your bike or a bus to Brønshøj."
5. Which metro station is your favorite?
"I think Nørrebro is. There's something really cool about it. Maybe it's because it's so far underground. It has a bit of a Blade Runner vibe. It's futuristic in a fun way."
