I was hoping to come this summer to work in Denmark but it obviously not doing great economically and was wondering if that affects the possibility of inding fruit picking job there at this point? Cheers!

As for the recession - in my experience, the fruit and vegetables donīt monitor the stock market too closely, and seem to get on with their job regardless - and the wages wonīt change as Denmark has a minimum wage. The only problem I foresee is competition - over the past few years the secret has gotten out and with the widening of EU eligibility for various countries you wonīt be the only one looking. Get there early and hit em hard. Good Luck. Mell Mell Post Count: 13503 Msg: #4 186 days ago, May 7th 2009 | Work, whilst travellling Europe | Number of Users: 3 | Number of Posts: 4 | ||||||||||||
