Raíces Argentinas: Culture, Migration & Entrepreneurship in Copenhagen

Designed specifically for schools, universities, and educational groups, Raíces Argentinas is a pedagogical walking tour through Copenhagen’s historic center that explores Argentina's history, culture, and entrepreneurial spirit through an intercultural lens.

By comparing the key similarities and differences between Denmark and Argentina, students will analyze core concepts in economics, governance, sociology, and urban planning. From examining Nordic consensus politics at Christiansborg to discussing the late-night energy of Buenos Aires vs. Scandinavian hygge along Strøget, the route bridges two distant worlds.

We begin at Christiansborg Palace to explore the heart of Danish governance, comparing coalition politics with Latin American presidentialism while examining currency stability, inflation, and youth labor models. From there, we stroll down Strøget to contrast Nordic urbanism, daytime public life, and hygge with the late-night cultural energy of Buenos Aires' Avenida Corrientes.

Passing by the historic Round Tower, we stop at Nonna Café where founder Rocío shares her journey as a young expat entrepreneur building a vibrant community in Copenhagen. We then head to Entre Masas for a session with founder Lucas on adapting traditional Argentine artisan recipes to the Nordic market, complete with a delicious product tasting.

Our journey concludes at the colorful waterfront of Nyhavn, where we connect its maritime heritage to Buenos Aires' La Boca neighborhood and reflect on its iconic status, finishing with a final group photo.
