We are considering a home exchange in Denmark because we have not yet explored Scandanavia. Location in any particular area is an important criteria in our ion process. Are the distances/times from the Copenhagen area to Norway/Sweden/northern Germany within reasonable driving times for overnight trips? I don't really know the geography very well :). Thanks for any help.

We did a house exchange in Copenhagen, and loved it. There was really quite a lot to do and see in and around there. We did a couple of nights in Aarhus, and explored that areas, as well. We drove to Sweden, because, in addition to the exchange of cars, the Danes let us use their gas card, which he got through his work and had to pay for monthly whether he used it or not. Lund could be done as a day trip, but Stockholm is at least 6 hours away, maybe more. Additionally, the drive is very boring. If I had known, I wouldn't have driven, despite the free gas. We got low cost air tickets to Oslo and return from Bergen. There are some ferry options that you could look into, as well. You can pm me, if you have other questions.
