Copenhagen Confidential: Mushrooms and Danish architecture

In this podcast: The Elliott boys take a strange turn as they bid farewell to Europe (recorded 9/26/25 in Copenhagen, Denmark)

Hej med jer from Copenhagen! It’s our last podcast from Europe, and this one is a little different.

Before we get to the details, here’s this week’s question: Have you ever visited a place that you liked so much that you wanted to move there? (And did you?) We’re asking because a lot of Americans are drawn to Denmark and end up moving here because of its high quality of life. We like it here, too.

Here’s one of the Orbital showers that recycle water at our extremely sustainable hotel, the Bryggen Guldsmeden Hotel. (And if you’re Danish, I apologize for my pronunciation in the podcast.) Everything here is very green and sustainable.

We kind of geeked out on Danish architecture during our visit to Copenhagen. Everywhere you look, there’s a cool building to see. And, as we explain in the podcast, they’re multi-purpose spaces, so they also conserve space.

Another highlight was Funga Farm, a mushroom farm that uses extremely sustainable methods to raise exotic mushrooms like this Lion’s Mane. The mushrooms are delicious, too.

Here’s our parting shot from the top of Church of Our Savior. If you can climb to the top of the spiral, you definitely don’t have a fear of heights. Scary, but the photos were worth it.

Don’t forget this week’s question: Have you ever visited a place that you liked a lot — so much that you wanted to move there?

We’ll see you next week. We’ll be back in the States for a rare visit. Details to come.
