Hygge (hoo-ga) is central to Danish and Norwegian culture and life. In 2020 and 2021, we discussed this concept and how we incorporate hygge into our lives. Our inspiration is based on Meik Wiking's Little Book of Hygge. Hygge influences food, style, friendships and traditions. The word doesn't have a direct English translation, but it most closely means "hominess." The other feelings it describes include:
Warmth
Coziness
Togetherness
Comfort
Love
Leisure
Slow
Sweet
Traditions
Fall and winter are the best times of year to experience hygge. Cold evenings under a blanket, drinking a warm beverage and eating a sweet treat while with family in front of the fireplace with the lights turned down... that's hygge. Below are gift ideas that offer the hygge vibes:
