Over the last few months, I’ve seen a lot of media buzz about Copenhagen’s status as a “creative capital.” In other words, a hot-and-happening European city that attracts creative, cosmopolitan professionals from around the world in much the same way that London, Paris, and New York have done for quite a while.
Sure, it’s been nice to hear that we’re surrounded by driven, adventurous, and international peers - whether they’re foreigners who’ve relocated to Copenhagen or Danes who’ve lived abroad. But now (finally!) we can actually meet each other.
Custom House - the collective of French, Italian and Japanese restaurants on the waterfront by Nyhavn (appropriately created and managed by London-based Conran Restaurants) - is taking on the task of gathering creative expat minds over tapas and wine.
Check out the invitation here. The upcoming event will be Custom House’s third - and the first two seem to have been a hit.
The evening sounds like a great opportunity to meet some fun people in what my Danish friend - who always seems to know the cool locals’ spot-of-the-moment - described as the place to be. If the location, ambiance and food are as good as people say they are, this expat night might turn into quite a popular trend - definitely worth a try.
Hope to see some of you at Custom House, Havnegade 44, at 18:00 on Tuesday, September 25th. The invitation is open to all internationally-oriented minds - and as you’re reading this on a site about international communication, that means you!
