Meet Mette Munk

As our settlement guide, Mette is your go-to fountain of knowledge when it comes to moving to Horsens – and that includes if you move here from another country. She knows where neighbours chat over low hedges while their children jump on the garden trampoline. Where you should settle if you want to have nature all around you. And where you can live in walking distance from the city’s best cafés.

She also has all the practical info about how to go about your move.
