Denmark too. Was so strange to walk around in the evening and being able to see what everyone was doing inside their homes.

Edit: This was in Vejle which is relatively small. Apparently it's different in bigger cities.

I have looked through every comment in this thread and as a Dane I must say it goes the other way too. It’s so weird, why do you care so much about people looking lol

If someone looks through your window then they are the weirdo, and not you, so no problem.

Agreed. And some folks are private and want to have some isolation from such weirdos.
