Hygge?(pronounce "hoo-gah") is a Danish and Norwegian concept that encompasses a feeling of coziness, warmth, and contentment. It is often associated with simple pleasures like enjoying time with friends and family, savoring comfort foods, or creating a warm atmosphere at home through soft lighting, candles, and blankets. Hygge is more than just a physical environment; it’s about cultivating a sense of well-being and mindfulness in everyday life, emphasizing comfort, relaxation, and connection.

It's a big part of Danish culture. Probably and especially during the long, cold winters. And it has become (or is becoming) popular internationally as a lifestyle trend promoting comfort and well-being.
