I’m really excited to interview Sally Bunnell of Navi Savi about Copenhagen, Denmark. Sally’s tips for the best things to do in Copenhagen are awesome because she moved to Copenhagen while working a remote job and feels that the city is the perfect balance between her small-town roots, Scandinavian heritage, and the big city life of New York City.
