I told my American colleagues that in Denmark we get 3 consecutive weeks off during the summer, and the company is not allowed to contact us. We also get an additional 2 weeks off we can use whenever we want. Oh, and + 5 days (in hours). Again that we can use whenever.

Their jaws dropped.

I get like 3 weeks off per year. Including holidays. Total. And that's actually considered quite good in my market.

Then I don't want to tell you about our sick days, and they can be many! Oh, and you cannot get fired if you're on sick leave, vacation or any other form of leave (parental etc). I feel really lucky living here!
