Your favorite sister duo learns about why Copenhagen is one of the happiest cities in the world. The Danish live by “hygge”, which is a lifestyle of contentment and conviviality that comes from doing simple things with people you love. The city is full of parks to relax in and enjoy a coffee and a Danish pastry, but is also bustling with bicycling, eating, and shopping. Copenhagen even allows for an easy day trip to Sweden if you are looking for even more to do.

Copenhagen recommendations:

Nyhavn - main waterfront district with canal tours, colorful townhouses, restaurants, and cafes

Frederiksberg Gardens - huge park great for running/biking or relaxing; also has the elephant lookout point

Kongens Have (The King’s Garden) - beautiful gardens and castle views

Restaurant - Reffen, the largest street food market in Northern Europe (only open March-September)

Day trip - across the Øresund Bridge to Malmö, Sweden

Danish variety store - Flying Tiger

Your favorite sister duo learns about Ghana, Africa. From the beaches and lush greenery to the cultural differences, Ghana will likely surprise you. Sometimes thought of as a good “starter country” for Africa, this episode may inspire you to plan a trip. We learn about cultural sites such as Elmina Castle and The Last Bath, where, after walking hundreds of miles from the slave markets, the enslaved washed themselves before being sold to Europeans. We also hear stories about what not to do when you get a snake bite, and about machete men who can apparently fix broken down buses.

Ghana recommendations:

Things to do - Kakum National Park, visit The Last Bath and Elmina Castle, W.E.B. Du Bois’s Museum

Food - Fufu, plantains, gizzard

Cities - Elmina (fishing town), Sekondi-Takoradi (gold mine), Accra (capital, airport)
