Was just in Denmark, didn’t see/hear the word once. It’s almost embarrassing how British marketers have all decided to seize upon the concept at the same time.

This is the kind of thing I’d right be into
I go on Pinterest every day and I get magazines like Molly Makes (I think it could be from the same people that make the simple things that @colon_closed_bracket mentioned above)
I’m well into anything twee and skandi and all sorts
I read the guardian lifestyle bit only
I’m into home shit
Hygge life is right for me
…
I’ve never heard of this word until this thread.

They were talking about this on Saturday morning live this morning on the radio.

Being stood in a river and saying it’s cosy is funny though
i live there. i’m pretty happy i guess. the danish word implies alcohol consumption much more strongly than ‘cozy’ does.

This led to a few domestic arguments over the weekend over who was most hygge.
“You’ve poured more wine in your glass than mine”
“Caring about that sort of thing isn’t hygge”
“If you were hygge you’d have shared it evenly”
etc
also
This confirms all my prejudices
Had a whole section on Sunday Brunch about this with a sexy Danish man. PEAK HYGGE.
Sounds like what living under communism would be like. I like it a lot.
No.
