Датское слово hygge — одно из тех красивых слов, которые нельзя дословно перевести на русский. По смыслу оно близко к понятиям «комфорт», «уют», «тепло» или «единение» • Это то чувство, которое вы испытываете, лежа в теплых вязаных носках на диване перед камином в обнимку с любимым человеком, когда на улице темно и холодно. Это то чувство, когда ты делишься вкусной, теплой едой со своими самыми близкими друзьями при свете свечей и ведёшь непринужденную беседу. Это те холодные утра с ясным голубым небом, когда из окна падает идеальный солнечный свет • Дания — самая счастливая страна в мире, и Майк объясняет это в основном тем, что они живут по принципу hygge. Они уделяют внимание важным мелочам, проводят больше времени с друзьями и семьёй, наслаждаются жизнью
