Hygge is the warm smiley feeling you get inside when you hang out with friends, or you're sitting in a christmas decorated livingroom, or you're curled up with someone you love and a blanket while it's snowing outside. It's when you feel like you're getting a warm hug on the inside. From norwegian who's currently having it hyggelig (hygge-like) under a blanket, with a dog, more than five candles going, and youtube! Have a hyggelig jul <3

I think it would be cool if you, Lucie, did a video were you tell us what of all the Challenges have really impacted in your daily life and the habits that you’ve changed because of the challenges.
Merry Christmas 🎄

I’m Danish and “hygge” just means relaxing and being super cozy and comfortable, whatever that is for you😌😊I’ve spend plenty of “hyggelige” moments in the States😌Don’t get the super hyped marketing concept of “hygge”😌 Something everyone does...

Seriosly when i Saw The titel i was like, “ What Hygge?! OMG THATS DANISH! “ ( Danes loves when People from other countrys mention our country lol👌🏻😂 Thank you so much for inclueding our little country in your video🇩🇰💕! Hygge it’s such a Big part of danes Day, and The things you did Where really “hyggelige”! This is My New fav episode of TLWL! And The Way you pronounce hygge is litterly so fun for danes to hear. I dont know, but i Think The hygge comes from that there is so cold here and Then you stay inside and turn on some candles. I Can say that hygge is not pronounced “Hoo-ga”😂 Americans say Danish Y’s like U’s, so to me it sounds like you Said Hugge😂 Witch it’s close, but seriosly if you aren’t Born in Denmark you would not No How to pronounce it. It’s so hard to explain, but just come here and you Will could feel The hygge ( and The cold ), when you arvive here🤣 We love guests, but Ya we dont get tons Cuz it Can be really expensive to be here so Ya. LOVE THIS EPISODE

Edit: Woaw Thank you for all The likes!

Next time you make your cinnamon buns, flour the surface instead of oil!

Would just like to clarify, that “hygge” is also a feeling. You can without a doubt have “hygge” at a beach, in the summer while wearing a summer dress.

I recently read this book and it inspired me to use hygge to get through the cold NY winter! Some hygge things I’ve done so far: Baked snickerdoodle cookies from scratch while listening to my favorite Danish singer, Tina Dickow, cross country skiied in the woods by my home, read Scandinavian thrillers while sipping coffee in bed in the morning, gathering with amazing women to talk about life and share a meal. 😌

This could be a challenge but you could do five days of religious practices, (not necessarily all church or cathedral based, but maybe home practices?) or maybe holiday traditions like Christmas and Hanukkah? You live in one of the most positive diverse place here in the U.S for this and it would be really cool to see and watch you go about doing 🌼 love hygge moments!

5 days of Friends! Doing something different with a friend everyday

[julieschulz]

I, as a dane, would describe hygge (not pronounced hooga, but more like higge) as the feeling you get by being in cozy situations. Candels, a fireplace, comfy clothes, warm and toasty inside but cold outside, hot chocolate, and no worries and responabilities. So hygge isn't the situation itself but the warm, cozy, fluffy and relaxed feeling that comes with it.

[clarabrandi]

no idea why but I always get happy when people talk about my motherland. THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST THING YET... IM SO EXCITED.
