Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 We arrived in Denmark, and went to find our rental car. We drove on the wrong side of the road to the Legoland Hotel.

#2 The country we’ve moved to is snowy, and the roads are icy. We go back inside and put on every item of clothing we have, then emerge an hour later, looking like Michelin Men but better prepared to start the day.

#3 The Danish government requires everyone to have a unique number, which is recorded in a Central Population Register. The number is printed on a yellow plastic card, which is TO BE CARRIED AT ALL TIMES. The national debit card is the Dankort.

#4 When we arrived in Billund, the town’s only attraction was a porny pony statue and cat-headed water features. We decided not to stay in toy town, and went looking for a new place to live.
