About Worktrotter

Dagmar Fink

Photo of Dagmar Fink2006 I moved to my fifth home - Denmark. The other countries in the collection: Germany, Romania, Sweden, USA. Since 2009 I am travelling between Germany and Denmark. My heritage and upbringing is multi-cultural: my ancestors come from Luxembourg, I am German, born in Romania and I grew up tri-lingual. 

Everywhere I lived, I wanted to be part of the country, meet people, have fun, and make most out of my stay. Educated as a software engineer, I worked for Mercedes Benz, IBM Germany, IBM Denmark as software developer, project leader and business & people manager.

As all newcomers have similar questions, I started the Worktrotter-network first and then collected information and hints & tips. These are now published in The Worktrotter's guide to Denmark
I am holding presentations about living and working in Denmark as another channel of sharing the breadth of the knowledge I have built up while researching for the guide.

My focus is on sharing information (life is too short to re-inventing the wheel) and finding ways on improving the status quo. I have a deep believe in joining forces, cooperations as we can do so much more together than if each of us is doing their own little thing.

In connection to my education as a software engineer I am looking into how technology can be used for making the challenges of Worktrotters (moden nomades) smaller. You will find that at Worktrotter we build strongly on Web 2.0, Web 3.0 and social media capabilities and I am sure that as we go, these technologies can support us in reducing the hardships of being somewhat un-rooted.

Since my move to DK I am leading the Worktrotter-network, that covers following areas:
- "Spark up your stay" practical meetings around living and working in DK
- "Vi taler Dansk": to practice our Danish
- "Business Corner": for entrepreneur-minded people
- "Jobseekers": for people searching work
- "Innovation Club": for people interested in innovation
- "Workplace": for all the aspects that deal with workplaces in Denmark.
- "Denmark Cat-sitting Exchange": for cat owners wanting to trade cat-sitting time.
