Hey guys! Do you know that feeling of that it's rare that you don't always get
around to exploring the places that you live close by? Well that's how I feel and
we have this awesome Museum that's rated really high on Google and I haven't
really checked it out yet so we took a little mini break a weekend
day today it's actually just a Tuesday but we brought Max here because the sun
is shining and it's gorgeous and I really want to show you guys!
It's a museum in Aarhus, here in Denmark, and it's about history and Vikings and generally just
Natural History Museum I think!
This museum is very new I actually don't remember when it got built but it's only
like maybe two three years old and I've been up to the rooftop before but not
inside it so I'm really excited we bought a year pass so we have a lot
of time to come back and revisit and see the whole exhibit because it's huge and
we don't have that much time every time we go! So this is the entrance let's hit in there
It's pretty amazing because this is a girl from the Stone Age and they
reconstructed her face with 80% accuracy how she actually looked which is really
really cool most of the things in these exhibits are
local so we have a lot of Vikings in this area and there have been people for
a long time so they kind of try to make it local
at least Danish and I really really find it fascinating because it's things that happen right here
You can shoot the arrow and on the screen...
One more time!
On the screen you can see the animal you're shooting!
This is a winner if you bring kids! Yeah!
The next one... Choose your arrow!
Then we shoot it
Max is reaching for the mirrored image
He thinks he can grab the mirror image
One thing that I really love about this
museum is you don't have to read everything so they have these big
screens like behind me where there's a guy standing there and actually explaining
the whole thing so he goes into a lot of details and really goes in-depth about
one specific area or location or story or something like that and they have
hear phones everywhere so you can have everything in English as well and there
are tons of school classes here and lots to see and do for kids as well
This room is all about offerings and they don't just display items that were
offered and they actually like make the whole room pretty! It think it's amazing, what do you think?
It's pretty awesome and there's a lot of VR and things you can touch
- and hear and listen! It's really like sensory almost overload you're just so
used to getting into a museum and it's all just this barely like empty room and
some boxes of some displays and this is a full-on experience!
They have a very cool background audio sound going on and you have the lighting is different in each room
some are dark, some are lights, some are round, some are square - it's really cool!
I'm in love with this room the golden straws everywhere it's amazing and Max is playing around a rock!
This room is amazing it's dark and it's quiet and
it's just really enchanting to be in I don't know if you can see me at all but
it's just beautiful
When you have kids something that's really important is that they can be
entertained while you actually stand there and listen to something or look at
something and everywhere in this museum there are little places where kids can
keep entertained so over here along the stairs all the way up there are little
stars and moon so they can touch over here there's a display small little
weapons and it's very low down so they can actually look in and we the adults
we don't really see them and over the floor over here there's a little display
where they can actually run on and you can learn something at the same time which is really cool!
This is a man who's very famous in Denmark he's called the "Grauballemand"
And I don't know if you can actually see him or see my face because it's very
dark in here but he was given to the gods as an offering and he was thrown
into a bog and because of the assets or whatever in the water he was fully
preserved so he actually still has his skin and everything I just can't believe that
there are sites like this so close to where I actually live my everyday life
and I've just never gone before which is just weird... This museum is awesome!
This building was made so it kind of like juts out of the ground and they've
covered this whole roof in grass so you can walk directly all the way up here
and there's an amazing view and you can come to the museum and you can just go
up here and enjoy the view over the bay and you don't have to pay to get into
the museum so this part is all free! It's gorgeous!
Now we're gonna go and find a place to have a picnic!
We are really trying to get in the habit of saving some money so we trying to do more picnics! It's really
expensive if we have to go and buy food everywhere we go and we talked to
WorldTowning Will and Jessica and they said that the best thing you can do
before you want to go long-term travel is to get like do some of the transition
and training before you go right now we're perfecting the habit of picnicking
Maria brought some cabbages and avocados and she makes some salad so
we could do this cabbage wraps yeah it tastes perfect yeah and then we're just
using what we already have at home and so far I found out that I need baby
wipes in the cooler because we're gonna need that every time
we picnic because Max is almost 2 and he makes a mess wherever we go!
He loves sparkling water
Max loves sparkling water! Oh it tastes so much
Dandelions!
You like them Max?
Thank you! So pretty!
Seriously? Does it get any more beautiful than this it's so green everywhere and that's the manor house
it's salmon-colored for some reason it's kind of funny and then we're just gonna
take a stroll through the forest
We just came home from Moesgaard Museum here in Aarhus, and we were really amazed
everything was super cool and really thought out exactly I I'm just really
impressed by how the museum was actually like the interior design of it and I
looked up the museum before we went and it said really high rating on Google
And I was kind of sceptical..
4.7 with more than thousand reviews so yeah most people gave it five
stars and we would definitely too I think it was just so much attention to
the detail in the interior the texture and the lighting and everything that's
it that's exactly what makes it special because it's a history museum
and of course you go there to learn like it's not entertaining but they make
learning a lot of fun and it's just so beautiful like they put these not not
sculptures but these things with lights in them and just decorative stuff yeah
beautiful feels more like a super modern art museum yeah but are you learning
about history yeah it's from the ancient history museum actually yeah it's like
Vikings and all that stuff..
Five out of five from us! Yeah, from the family of Storgaard. Bring your kids they will have a lot of
fun yeah so if you're in the Aarhus area or ever plan to travel to here then
definitely visit it the bus number eighteen actually goes straight there
yeah I'm city center yeah that's all for now take care and if you liked the video
please give it a thumbs up yeah and like it and share with your friends
