"Hygge" is Denmark's national obsession; just as America's is "Liberty"

Hygge (pronounced "hoo-gah&quot is a Danish and Norwegian concept centered on coziness, contentment, and well-being, finding joy in simple pleasures, togetherness, and creating a warm, intimate atmosphere through elements like candlelight, comfort food, soft textiles, and good company, embodying a state of happy, relaxed contentment. It's about savoring everyday moments, slowing down, and fostering connection with loved ones, making it a core part of Danish culture.
