Welcome to 106 new members of Expat in Denmark this month. |

Dear Members
We hope you all had a romantic Valentine's Day yesterday, and cannot help but hope that at least one Danish heart was melted by the charms of an Expat.
We're heading toward another Expat Dinner in the coming weeks, certainly bigger, hopefully even better, than the last one. More information is below, so take a look.
We have a social event in Copenhagen tomorrow and Aalborg next week, and we should also mention a big thanks to the many good Expats of Odense who we met last week: we look forward to seeing you soon!
Rather like waiting for a bus, there'll be another newsletter along shortly, so until then ......
Best regards, Expat in Denmark
