It has been said that Danish birthdays are the most important in the world. Adults, children, even the Queen of Denmark make a big deal about birthdays. And there is specific set of birthday rules and traditions for every age and role you play in life. Let\u2019s face it, Danish birthday traditions are a minefield for foreigners. Get it wrong and you could make some serious birthday faux pas.
For example, if the sun is shining on your birthday, you may find Danish people thanking you. \u2018Thanks for the sunshine\u2019 they\u2019ll say. This is because in Danish tradition, the weather on your birthday reflects your behavior over the past year. If you\u2019ve been good, the weather is good. If you\u2019ve been bad\u2026.well, then. You get depressing, grey, Danish rain.
