Description The Long Read: Copenhagen

It’s evident that Mikkel loves reading. Books are hiding in every corner of his home, manifesting his personality in the feel and look of the home. We love this home’s retro feel, the most outstanding features being the collection of classic Danish design furniture. Mikkel is an analogue kind of guy, so there’s no TV in his home. But why not use that as an opportunity to take advantage of all the things to do in his home (large vinyl collection and record player, books, fully equipped kitchen), as well as bustling Nørrebro, an oasis for artsy, creative types.

Home truths:
*Special mention to TV addicts – there’s no television in this home
*When we visited, there was also no wifi – the host is working on setting this up
*The washing facilities are shared between all residents – they can be found in the basement of the building
*It’s on the third floor with no lift, be prepared for some up and down
*Mikkel would appreciate if you could help him with watering the plants
*The host allows for people to smoke in his home – we couldn’t smell any smoke when we visited, but it’s worth noting in case you prefer a smoke-free home
*The bed is on the lower side
