Home is Where the Hygge is: Copenhagen

July 17, 2024

Denmark. Ahh, my soul country!

I could not wait for Denmark. It was among the top 3 countries we were venturing to. I read the “Little Book of Hygge” and “Lykke” years ago and was fascinated with the Danish culture and way of life: quiet, slow-paced, present and connected—the opposite of my ADHD personality. So here we were in the Danish capital, Copenhagen and it lived up to my expectations.

First off, it is hard to believe that 1.4 million people live in Cph. Outside the real tourist spots (Nyhavn Canal), the city operates like a large town: people riding bikes EVERYWHERE, most vehicles are electric = quiet,  people walking are in no rush, and the loudness a city gives is turned down to a murmur (opposite of Americans boisterous disposition). It was hard not to adapt their attitude. I started walking like I was in a museum all the time — hands behind the back, slow-paced, gazing aimlessly. Vidunderlig!

Denmark is a place I will be sure to return to (once I build the bank account back up) and one I would feel safe letting my kids solo backpack when they are older. It ticked every box, outside the cost…but it was well worth the added expenses.
