I once spent a bit of time in Copenhagen... a few months, to be exact. I wrote about why I lived there - and why I love the city so much - in this post. While I spent all that time in Copenhagen, however, I never really explored the rest of Denmark. Call it naivety, call it being broke, call it whatever you want, but the fact is that I never really saw another side of the country. Fast forward nine years, and I ended up meeting Kathrine at a travel blogging conference. We instantly hit it off and I learned she works for Visit Denmark. "You should come to my hometown sometime!" she told me. "It's called Aarhus." The name rang a bell - I knew that I had met a few people from Aarhus before, and after a bit of research found out that it is known as Denmark's second city. Only three hours by train from Copenhagen, I was a bit embarrassed that I never made the journey there while I spent time in Denmark.
