My favourite thing that makes me proud of Aalborg:
That Aalborg is Denmark’s number one sports city.
My favourite weekend routine:
A quiet morning with my family, starting the day with having breakfast and coffee in the garden with my girlfriend.
My favourite cultural spot:
The beautiful nature around Noah’s Ark is differently the city’s best view.
My favourite place for dining out:
Out of many, I would recommend Applaus for social-dinning, Dejavu for a classic French bistro and Fusion for some great Omakase. I would always recommend a visit to these places.
My favourite place for a glass of wine:
At the RareWine office, of course!
My favourite place for a creative or business meeting:
Aalborg has many nice places for a good business meeting. I would suggest Helmuth, Spiret, or cafe Vesterå.
My favourite breakfast place:
Surdejsbageren. A sourdough bakery with a simple but lovely breakfast.
My favourite city escape:
Kridtgraven in the west part of the city. It’s a chalk pit with the best swimming and running area in the city.
My favourite local entrepreneur or creative I want to promote:
Mark Nielsen, CEO, and co-founder of Coolshop.
My favourite hotel for a staycation:
My favourite route for a run or walk:
Besides Kridtgraven, running along the Harbor in the centre of Aalborg is great.
My favourite place for fashion:
Shaping New Tomorrow and deKARL.
My favourite space for great design:
Local painter Morten Andersen has his working space close to the RareWine Office. The workflow of artists is quite different to my profession, but I find it extremely interesting to visit and talk with people with so much passion for their job.
My favourite example of tech innovation in Aalborg:
The start of the sport-tech brand Tonsser started in Aalborg before founder Peter & Simon moved to Copenhagen. I love the platform the boys have innovated over the years with a passion for football and helping young people to a better career.
My favourite local media:
MyAalborg is incredibly informative on social media about activities in the city.
My favourite thing at home:
My family comes in first place, my coffee machine second!
