Scotland: Info on Aberdeen...:

Hi all... I'm heading to Aberdeen on Tuesday to interview for a job @ an oil co. Trying to research what life in Aberdeen is like but really having trouble. I looked into going to Qatar previously and found a wealth of information... Aberdeen must be extremely small and/or very quiet ??? Anyone have good links describing what city life is like; what a 31yo single guy can expect... is it totally boring? Is it only feasible to get around with a car? Thanks in advance for any help...

Denmark: Considering Denmark with Maersk:

Hello :) I currently live and work in California, US, for Maersk Line (a Danish shipping line). The company is downsizing and I am in need of a new position. An opportunity has surfaced at the HQ in Copenhagen... not as a company-sponsored expat, but as a move that I would be entirely responsible for. (I would pay local taxes, move myself, etc). I am 25 and almost done with my degree, another 2 semesters to go... it has always been my goal to go abroad and now a real chance is here, but it would mean interrupting school. Can anyone here provide some insight on lfie in Denmark? Is it very expensive to live? Will income taxes cripple me? I have very little furniture etc so moving would be fairly simple I believe. Any experience with taking classes at a unviersity abroad to transfer back home for a US degree? Thoughts? :) What about VISA erquirements etc... I will need to handle all of that on my own. Any other comments or thoughts would be appreciated as well.
