The dickens you say ... Hygge (Noun: who - guh) The Danish concept of coziness created when enjoying good food, drink, and fireside times with dear friends and family If you haven't heard of it yet, don't fret. You'll soon be seeing hygge everywhere. The Danish people are consistently reported to be the happiest people on the planet, and hygge is an ingrained part of their national culture. According to Meik Wiking, (pronounced Mike Viking) author of the little book that is taking the UK by storm, "Hygge is about an atmosphere and an experience, rather than about things. It is about being with people we love. A feeling of home. A feeling that we are safe, that we are shielded from the world." |
