101 | Becoming a Nearly Danish Dame: Brooke Fossey’s New Life in Denmark
Manage episode 487882160 series 3529085
🎧 Bikes. Buns. No Danish friends? Challenge accepted.
Brooke Fossey, The Nearly Danish Dame, moved to Denmark for a one-month vacation—and never went back. What followed was a full-blown reinvention: from running a bagel business out of a bike in Boston to becoming a cheerleader for awkward, honest language learning on Instagram. In our conversation, Brooke shares what it really takes to build a new life abroad—navigating motherhood, identity, and the Danish social scene, all while learning a language that everyone says you’ll never master. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to start over and still feel like yourself, this conversation is for you.
