I've actually been to all those cities in the past 2 years, which I really didn't stop to realize until now.

They're all very awesome, although all a little too small for my taste. I'd probably go with Copenhagen since it would have easy access to the rest of Europe, and I had an awesome fling who was from there once when I was in Amsterdam.

Otherwise I'd go with Stockholm since I've been there the most number of times, and my family is originally Swedish (hundreds of years ago).

Oslo. Norway has been voted the most liveable country in the world, and Norway is about as gorgeous as countries come. Plus Im mostly Norwegian so I would feel most at home there.

I've been to Copenhagen and Reykjavik and would not want to spend 10 years in either...not enough going on. Stockholm for me.

It is gorgeous. I have to say that Bergen is one of my favorite cities in the world.

Stockholm has by far more population than either Copenhagen, Oslo, Reykjavik or Helsinki.
There's more stuff to do in Stockholm... better city.
Copenhagen is nice too, but not as Stockholm. You can't even compare them together.
Well, Copenhagens location is better, but so what? It's same climate in Stockholm and Copenhagen, but Stockholm has more sunshine.
Stockholm is known for its beauty, built in 14 islands, more than 100 museums, great shopping, great food etc.

I live close to Stockholm, and it's real nice there.
Copenhagen is a nice city too, but there it's 0,5% higher taxes... Hehe...

Too bad peaplo are extremely rude in both Copenhagen and Stockholm.
And if you live in any of the cities you would only afford a small apartment.

So... If you have any questions about Stockholm, I'm the one to answer.
