• Ilana Buhl believes the cons of living in Denmark are minor compared to the pros.
• Buhl, who moved to Denmark in 2018, said feeling safer and living in a walkable city are two pros.
• Meanwhile the weather can be a negative at times.

Ilana Buhl said there’s no reason for her to return to the United States after moving to Copenhagen from Dallas in 2018.
