What is hygge?

Hygge is a Danish word that has no direct translation.

The Oxford Dictionary defines it as:

[noun] A quality of cosiness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture)

Hygge is…

… having brunch with friends.

Hygge is…

… cuddling up on the sofa on a rainy day.

Hygge is…

… enjoying a hot cocoa while it snows outside.

Hygge is…

And hygge is…

… wearing a beautiful, soft pair of wool slippers felted by YOU.
