“Hard to pronounce, hygge (“hooga”) is difficult to explain, too. In brief, hygge is about taking time away from the daily rush to be together with people you care about – or even by yourself – to relax and enjoy life’s quieter pleasures. “—Denmark.dk
Winter is the time of year when we’re craving to slow down and give ourselves a little rest to renew our spirit. As the darker evenings draw in, it’s time to curl up with a hot beverage, a blanket, and a good book. Settle in and enter Hygge, taking pleasure from the simple cozy things in life in the company of friends.
