🇺🇸🇩🇰 Living in Denmark since 2017 has had an impact on me. I’ve picked up all kinds of cultural traits from Danish culture and muted aspects of the American culture I was raised in. Neither things is good or bad, I love both countries and cultures very much. They are different though, and these micro-differences in culture between Denmark and America make for some peculiar situations. They usually pop up in awkward reverse culture shocks when I go back to visit the United States.

One recent experience highlighted for me just how relaxed Danish culture (and more broadly Scandinavian and Nordic cultures) view nudity. It’s a natural state of being and not something that ignites feelings of discomfort. Mostly, it’s non-sexualized.

I have to remind myself of this when I go back and forth between the two cultures. These small differences can be magnified in certain situations and this one, although quite funny, could have been messy under different circumstances.
