And explain why you would like to live or work there.

I’ve been to many cities so far. The main purpose is for trip. I just stay 3 to 4 days in each city. But there’s one city where I would really like to live.

The city is Copenhagen, the capital and most populous city of Denmark. I’ve heard about this city in many occasions, but I got a good understanding of it in a TV program, in which a group of celebrities went on a trip to Copenhagen. I was fascinated by this adorable city.

As far as I know, Copenhagen has a population of 1.4 million. Originally a Viking fishing village founded in the 10th century, it became the capital of Denmark in the early 15th century. Beginning in the 17th century it consolidated its position as a regional center of power with its institutions and armed forces. Now, the city is the

cultural, economic and governmental center of Denmark, and one of the major financial centers of Northern Europe.

I want to live there mainly because for a number of years, it has ranked high in international surveys for its quality of life. Its stable economy together with its education services and level of social safety make it attractive for locals and visitors alike. Although it is one of the world's most expensive cities, it is also one of the most liveable

with its public transport, facilities for cyclists and its environmental policies. Besides, although the climate is unstable throughout the year, snow occurs for almost half a year. It is my dream to live in a place with snow!
