text: I highly recommend Sheryl Sandberg's Option B, as well as Linda Kavelin-Popov'sGraceful Endings, for all of us who are dealing with serious illness, grief and loss or who want to know what to say to those who are.
  
  Sleeping under the stars, barbeques, getting back to nature...sounds idyllic doesn’t it? Camping in Marazion offers the ultimate in laidback holiday style.
  
  We have a rich history. So rich in fact that most of us can't even retell half of it. But luckily, we have a lot of passionate locals around the country, who are eager to share their vast knowledge of Denmark's history and culture at our many museums. Here are 18 of Denmark’s best museums.
  Don’t know where to start your journey through Denmark’s history? Then we suggest you head to our National Museum. Here you can get a general overview about the different eras of our history, or you can immerse yourself in a specific time period. Stone Age, Viking Age, Middle Ages, Renaissance or Modern times, this museum’s got it all.
  In the centre of our second city, Aarhus, you’ll find one of the largest art museums in Northern Europe, ARoS, and one of our absolute favourites. Because this museum figured out how to make the greyest days colourful, by simply slapping a giant circular rainbow walkway on the top of the building.
  Did you know that we can pinpoint when we went from being simply humans living somewhere close to each other to being Danes? We even have a birth certificate in the form of two big Viking rune stones. You can see them in the little town of Jelling and learn more about our Viking kings at the visitor centre, Kongernes Jelling.
  Hidden beneath the dunes along our rugged North Sea coast, you might be able to spot the hidden bunker museum, Tirpitz, which tells the story of the Atlantic Wall during the 2nd World War. But you’ll also get an look inside the history of the entire region, and our relationship with and dependence on the wild North Sea.
  As the first museum of modern art in Denmark, Louisiana was the place where we Danes learned how to appreciate contemporary art. Today, the museum is a leading international art museum and its exhibitions are critically acclaimed. Add to that, it has one of the world’s best locations (in our humble opinion) as you’ll be able to enjoy the incredible view of Øresund.
  We’re a proud little island nation with a long maritime history. Wherever we are in Denmark, we’re never more than 53 km from the sea, which has made us dependent on the sea throughout our history. At the Maritime Museum in Helsingør, we’ll tell you about our seafaring Viking raids, sing a few sea shanties, and teach you how to navigate and do trades like it was 1749.
  At our National Gallery, SMK, you can see how we Danes have depicted our everyday lives throughout the past seven centuries. SMK is particularly known for its comprehensive collections of paintings from the Danish Golden Age and contemporary art pieces.
  You can tell a lot about a country by studying its songs and musical heritage. And if you’re a music lover like us, we’d love to show and play you some of Denmark’s most iconic and influential songs at the museum for pop, rock and youth culture, Ragnarock. You might even know a few of them. The museum is in the city of Roskilde which is also home to Northern Europe’s biggest music festival.
  Frederiksborg Castle is one of the most famous castles in Denmark and for good reason: situated on three islands surrounded by a lake and beautiful gardens, it's simply breathtaking. Home to the Museum of National History, the grounds are full of rich history, architecture, and gardens.
  Some say you shouldn’t meet your icons. But when it comes to the Danish design icons, we wouldn’t go without. Because we have an enormous passion for design and after a visit to the design museum in Copenhagen, you’ll hopefully understand why.
  If you want to experience how our lives have changed and evolved over the past centuries, you can walk through our history at The Old Town Museum in Aarhus.
  People tend to say that walking around in our little kingdom is like walking in a fairy tale. This comparison might be due to a certain Danish fairy tale writer whose stories are known around the world. Hans Christian Andersen has given us tales such as The Little Mermaid, The Ugly Duckling and The Snow Queen. And you can get to know our most famous author at the H.C. Andersen Museum in Odense.
  At the very top of Denmark’s wild North lies the one of our favourite holiday towns, Skagen. The 700-year-old fishing village transformed into an artsy retreat in the late 1800s, as some of Denmark’s most famous painters flocked to the town to try and capture the area’s unique light. You can see the iconic works of art from the "Skagen painters" at the Skagen’s Museum.
