MMaybe you noticed them over the summer. Dark-haired young people at Copenhagen’s harbor baths, sipping mate herbal tea from a round cup through a steel straw. Maybe you overheard a couple of food delivery riders on the street chatting in Spanish, with that distinctive zh sound.

Maybe you saw that a butcher has just opened on Nørregade, Estancia, offering unique cuts of beef and specialties from the Pampas. You might have noticed the newly opened cultural center in Sydhavnen, humming with tango and smelling of grilled meat and empanadas. Or perhaps you did a double take at the TV images from Islands Brygge, with a gathering of several thousand cheering fans in striped soccer jerseys, many with the number 10 and ’Messi’ on the back.
