ICE SKATING!!!!
+caitlinhulsman Love it!
Go alpine skiing and cuddling with my cat in a wool blanket! 😄🎿😻
+angelicarufus OOH! That sounds so nice!!
Drinking hot chocolate by the campfire while watching movies with my sister
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
I felt that feeling one morning and it was truly and outstanding feeling, it was quiet and my room had just been turned minimalist the night before and I was so happy
As a Dane, I think your description of the feeling is spot on! ❤️
what about 5 days of homemade meals, from breakfast (coffee included) to dinner?
+silviagreco Stay tuned! ;)
Good one!!
Stupid
Diana Ray Very polite, thank you
Five days of using your non-dominant hand as your dominant hand :P
Sara Angel omg yasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Interesting
Hey it’s me- again 😂👍🏻
•5 days essential oils
•5 days of diva cup
•5 days all natural products
-Julia ❤️
Snazzy Toy Reviews but what if her period lasts for 4 days? lol
Sara Pinjic lol then she would be rlly lucky haha 😂
'Natural products' is a bit vague.
Natural products defined:
“In the broadest sense, natural products include any substance produced by life. Within the organic chemistry, the definition of natural products is usually restricted to mean purified organic compounds isolated from natural sources that are produced by the pathways of primary or secondary sources.”
Thus meaning, natural products are ones that are made strictly from organic and natural compounds. Thus meaning, natural products just means, if it has a chemical in it, it’s not natural. I respect your opinion, but I just thought you didn’t know the full definition.😊😁🙌🏻
Snazzy Toy Reviews chemicals are everywhere though. Everything in the world is made up of chemicals.
5 days with no mirror!💕
calamitasCorvus I think it’s pretty difficult :) especially the conscious feeling like you look “bad” because you have not looked in a mirror.
calamitasCorvus everything’s a mental problem these days. I’m thinking realistic if someone wakes up and cant look in a mirror they are doing to worry. Like “5 days with no makeup” she felt self conscious the whole time and maybe without a mirror she can boost her confidence. It’s 2018 everyone looks in a mirror when they get ready it’s a fact and think about how you would feel without it.
calamitasCorvus lol every morning routine on CZcams and mostly anywhere the first thing they do is check a mirror I know I do so if that makes me have a mental issue then so be it and when you wash your face or brush your teeth do you have a mirror in your bathroom now that’s abnormal. Almost every person checks there mirror when they wake up it’s something you cant change.
omg YAAASSS
I do
That everyday
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...
Natasha Thomas people in the US are intrigued because it’s not something that’s part of our culture :):)
Hygge er bare noget af det bedste❤️😊
Lucie Fink - I don’t think that’s true at all - that night you had with your sister and Michael - you can’t tell me that’s the first time ever you spend a night like that??
Or just hanging out on the couch with your man or your sister/best friend - that’s hygge too... any time where you are relaxed, comfertable and with someone you love, that’s hygge....
Lucie Fink it is the first time I am hearing that having a good time isn’t a part of someone’s culture. Hygge is having a good time with your friends, family or all by your self depending on what kind of person you are and to fulfill the need you have at that time, I’m from Denmark and I really don’t understand the hype. And a lot of stuff you are reading from the book sound like BS to be honest
Mariam Bibi - i agree - like, I get the comfy pants and sweater, and I get cozying up your home, but in Denmark we love candles, but candles are not what makes it hygge... neither is blankets and pillows or lighting.... that is all a stylechoise...
Hygge is a feeling, and when you are trying to identify it, I guess all those things help, but that is not what is considered hygge in Denmark....
You don’t need to ‘stage’ hygge... hygge appears when you feel happy, loved and in a space or with people who make you feel that way...
We use the word hygge to describe that feeling - but also to describe stuff that makes us get to that feeling faster.... for some it’s hyggebukser, for others it’s candles, for others again it’s just having a conversation...
Hygge doesn’t have a ‘default-setting’ and you can’t make a manual and say ‘this is what hygge is’...
because it is such a personal thing to define!
You guys are high-school sweathearts❤️❤️ thats adorable.
Jelly Beanz 😂😂😂😂😂
5 days of practicing the Law of Attraction
Five days of being a mom (using one of those almost alive looking babydolls or babysitting)!
That sounds awful 😂
Or just not sleeping 😂
yesss
Yes! I just finished myg exams and I really need a Hygge weekend! Curling up on my sofa to watch this xxx have a good day everyone!
Bianca Acquaviva io
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, 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.
Next time you make your cinnamon buns, flour the surface instead of oil!
GOOD IDEA it was too oily lol
Lucie Fink also cut the cinnamon bun with a thread! Wrap the thread around your told and tighten it until it’s cut! That way you keep the shape and not smush it with a knife
When she said it wasn't good, I wasn't surprised. Because I think using flour instead of oil isn't just a good ideia, it's the normal thing to.
Foxtrot oil isnt normal!
Yes! Also, they need to rise again after you roll them and cut them. Time consuming but worth it ☺️
5 days without mirror
ooo ya
Yeah
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 🎄
Love that, thank you!!!
5 days of fostering a dog!! 🐶
I LOVE THIS AND WANNA DO IT SO BADLY
I always feel so bad when they have to give it back though ☹️ the dog thinks it had a home but it was actually just temporary
How about 5 months?
@@lucyw993 how bout you rip its heart out and lie to it about who its real parents are? lol lol
How about the first 5 days of fostering a dog?
OMG I JUST HAD THE BEST IDEA EVER! Lucy i want to see you try to live in a tiny house for 1 week! I would SO watch that video! Also i love ALL of ur videos
Yes please I'd love that video or you could do it for a month
Definitely need 5 days of hygge after a week of finals😅
When she threw the sweater with all those candles around I just about had a heart attack
HAHA same. So glad I didn't ruin them!
5 days of fashion through the decades
5 days of Friends! Doing something different with a friend everyday
i don't really have 5 friends though...
@@joeynathan6073 5 days of making new friends :)
@@stayhappy8213 My idea of torture 😨
no idea why but I always get happy when people talk about my motherland. THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST THING YET... IM SO EXCITED.
My winter hygge is: building a cozy canopy in the corner of my bedroom; Hot cacao with cinnamon & mini marshmallows; Reading a book in bed for an hour before sleeping; Cuddling up in a fluffy blanket with my dog; A lot of fancy soy candles; Being kinder to myself and others... and feeling extra grateful for my life!
5 days of living like a different nationality : German,Spain, Venezuela...
That would be very interesting !!
Lisa Becker how
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!
STW Gymnastics Edits thank you so much this is so helpful!!!
Lucie Fink OMG YOU READ MY COMMMENT!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH LUCIE🇩🇰💕💕🙏🏻💕🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇩🇰🙏🏻🙏🏻💕🙏🏻🇩🇰🙏🏻💕
well it's also a norwegian word lmao
livingmau5runcatrun a Ya i know, norwegian and Danish is really simular. Er du fra Norge?
Try to name an English word that the correct pronunciation would rhyme with.
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. 😌
The way Lucie prunouces Hygge is kind of funny and kind of adorable all at once. Love these videos.
Yay! Love love love your 5 day challenges! They always make my day!
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!
Karly Bell Yes!! I've wanted this for a really long time! 😄
I got the little book of hygge and I’m IN LOVE, I can’t wait for winter to come so I can do hygge ❤️ Thanks for doing this video lucie 😘😘
So cozy and comforting. Will def do this!
Så hyggelig at du prøver deg på dette, jeg håper du koste deg!! 😉 I'm norwegian tho. But it's so fun that you're exploring the scandinavian culture! 😄❤
Angelica Rufus hahah ja
Thank you for this video! My best friend has been going through a rough semester, and same for me, and this is something I felt we were missing in our day to day. I kept telling her she needs to find a little comfort in each day, but couldn't describe how exactly and this concept/book seems to do the trick! Just bought her, my other friend and I matching books for Christmas! Hopefully it helps us start off the new year on a good foot :)
Awww this is so great to hear! THANK YOU!
After 4 months of living in Copenhagen I have to say, it comes naturally. When days are short and cold and cloudy or rainy you learn how to hygge pretty fast. I don't like burning lots of candles because I might forget I left them on, so I turn on some fake candles that look very real, and have a timer on them. And then a scented candle or two 😊.
Hygge is also a thing we use to keep the winterdepression at bay. Our winters are very long and dark.
Do Five days of Fika next. It’s Swedish
What does fika mean 😕
Yesssss!!!! Been waiting for this all week!! This week looks less tortuous than your normal 7 day challenges (aka cold showers haha)
+jay85571 Thanks for sticking with us! :)
jay86671 hahah agreed. I intentionally did some hygge post cold showers!
Wow..I have had so many Hygee moments without realizing it. My best Hygee moment is building a cozy tent in the basement with my kids and playing Monopoly with my family during Thanksgiving break while camping out in their living room. Best video so far. I am getting the book.
Thank you so much for doing challenge. I've always wanted to do this but I've never had the time to try it out. With this video you helped me see what Hygge real is😊
I’m obsessed with Try Living With Lucy😍
who isn't 😂
SAMEEEEEEE
Lucie not Lucy. Anyway me too
Hi honey, I just looked thru all your series & I donnnnt think you've done this but how about
5 Days No Technology (AT ALL!)
Too hard? How about....
5 Days No Internet
Still Too Hard? I bet you could do....
5 Days No Email.
Lucy can do anything...for 5 days! 😊 Happy Holidays!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Sounds very hard but I'm up for it :)
I've been hygge(ing) my whole entire life!
#HyggeMaster 😊
she may lose her job if she did that lol
how can she film the video if she has no technology lol
how would she film if she can’t use technology?
I just binged watched this hole seirs and i love this plz post more your content is great ilysm❤️💕💋
This is the perfect episode for this season!!!
I’m from Denmark and this is the best way to describe hygge
WOW thank you so much!!! This means a lot :)
Ya true
Elisa Kirk Colombano Helt eniig
So funny when you say HYGGE doesn’t sound like in Norwegian or danish. I Bergen Norway we have sugar or powder-sugar on cinnamon-buns ✌🏻
Love from Norway
I love that book so much! I just recently found this video and I was SO HAPPY!!! 😊
Even tho I had never heard of the term, I have already been incorporating some of the practices you mentioned in the video as a way to wind down from my hectic days of work and school. This video has given me the idea of finding calm settings when I’m not home as a way of staying hygge throughout the day and not just at the end of the day :)
+bigcitydreamer Thanks for watching! :)
5 days of charity? (Like help people in your area, or just do some charitable things)
I did something similar last year - czcams.com/video/QdsmCfSAJ_A/video.html (HOPE YOU LIKE IT!)
I didn’t even expect to get a reply lol, I’ve been binge watching most of your recent “5 days of ____” and loved them. Keep up the good work 😊
Nice video! I guess I've had a Hygge habit for years: I have tea time, with some little sweet snack almost every evening between 5 and 5:30PM. It's my way of unwinding and also centering myself after the workday. I've also started incorporating more candles into my life, which I enjoy. :-)
Also part of hygge is getting out in the cold and doing the hard stuff so you actually enjoy the warmth instead of just being lazy and binge watching.
My grandmother (Elli) she moved to America from Denmark and raised my father here. We have a lot of these themes in our house such as cozy areas, lots of games and I bake often. I saw this vid and just thought this hugge was home, and comfort. It is where you can nap, chat, eat, snuggle, and do your own thing.
Love your series Lucie!!! love 'em!! ~
Previously you've done a $50 dollar budget challenge maybe you can try a $20 challenge this time :)
I'm danish and sooo happy right nooow!!!😍😍 I love hygge💗💗💗
YESSS thanks for watching!!!
Jeg er også fra Danmark og det er mega fedt at Lucie prøver at hygge sig. Det sjove er bare at hun siger det helt forkert😄😁
Omg, i thought i was The only dane that wacthed TLWL
Ninette Madsen ja haha
Yay you finally did 5 days of hygge! I finished reading that book 2 weeks ago 😀😀😀
I can’t get enough of Lucie and this series. She was the perrrrfect person to do this series and every new challenge is so much fun to watch 😍
The y in hygge is pronounced kind of like when you say ‘you’. Or the u in fx Hugo. But the sound is a bit shorter :-)
Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰🎄 I personally almost never light candles, and yesterday I enjoyed a hyggelig evening with my husband and pizza (not homemade). But yes - all kinds of meals can be hyggelige and if you’ve spend a long time making it together the whole food-making process is part of the hygge 😁 but we use the hygge-term quite freely - fx it can be hyggeligt running in to an old friend on the street. So it’s generally just whenever you do something that makes you happy.
Im from norway🇳🇴norge🇳🇴🇳🇴😻Hygge is wen you are comfy and have your life perfect.
This is pretty much my life during the holiday months! All the candles, baking, cozy clothes😍😍
This is officially the best series on youtube!!!!
5 days of strict dress code
Hermione Granger My fav movie is Harry Potter fav character is HERMIONE GRANGER I literally have most of the wands read all the books 18 times and have a collection of books in different languages and a back bag and more
Anime Lover OMG That's so cool
Shes done one like this. She wore the same outfit for a week
Fajar Zahid I think she meant it like school dress codes
emily ottinger yes I did, thanks!!😆😆
I think you might have to edit the description box. Hygge is not Scandinavian - it’s danish 🇩🇰🇩🇰
+helenamoller Updated! :)
Refinery29 We say "hygge" in Norway. But it's not a thing tho..
I still feel like it's a part of the scandivanian culture tho. Maybe we norwegians rather use the word "koselig" more than "hygge"?
It's Norwegian
Helena Møller Excuse you but Norway uses it too :)
I love autumn and winter to some degree and before i knew hygge i realised i have been doing it my whole life ...who knew...but now i have new ideas. Happy Hygge people!
Hygge is just a word we use to describe when we relax and unwind. It´s something you also do in your everyday life it isn´t something special, it´s something everyone also do, people just have a different word for it. By the way I am Danish. but great video, and great you hyggede
LoveKaroline THANK YOU!!
Do 5 days of sleeping on the floor
YES! Working on this soon...
Lucie Fink AWESOME! Can’t wait🌸Love your videos Lucy😍
I did that last weekend when I celebrated my 20th birthday! Not a very comfy experience 😂😅🙈
Lucie Fink YAY YOU DID IF THANK YOU ME AND MY SIS REQUESTED IT THANK YOU FOR DOING IT
Wow I’ve been Hygge all my life
Yaaaaaas I’ve been wanting this!!!
Fun episode! I’m from Norway so I have hygge days so often! Fun that you tried it :-D
Ohhhh im just reading this book right now and I love it. You have to try Lagom (sweden) too :)
ooo what's that?
Janka Aisha Kovács ahhh hon svara dig
check '' the mustards'' video on CZcams, lagom is pretty cool!
She pronounce the words so cute😂
Just found you and you're HILARIOUS!!! I will definitely watch more of your videos.
I love that blue sweater; so glad you mentioned where it came from although it's totally out of my price range.
I'm from Denmark, but thats not how you say it!😂(it's not hooga)😂✨
Anna Ildensborg-Grooss how do you say it!!! I wanna know 😛
You pronounce it “H U (like in Huge)”+ G G E “ ☺️ - I think that’s the best I can explain it
Anna Ildensborg-Grooss why does the Meik Wiking book say “hoo-gah” then?
If you put hygge through google translate Danish-English and press the audio button for Danish it is more correct. Not right but better then hoo-gah. :) love you're videos!!
czcams.com/video/QSXiH_0HgwI/video.html
this is the correct way to say it:) lol
Five days of monochrome outfits ♥️
Soft warm blankets... fluffy comfy pillows... warm, cozy sweaters with leggings and thick socks... flavorful coffees, teas and hot chocolate... homemade baked treats, soups and stews... reading books/magazines surfing the Innanets while snuggling with my kitty... I’ve been practicing Hygge for years!!
I loved your video, it is very inspirational to try Hugge at home! :)
I read the exact same book last summer. There is so much information in it and I love the presentation. I did not try most of the Hugge activities then (as it was in the middle of the summer) but I started lighting candles more and it is the best feeling ever!
As a norwegian this was hillarious! Danish and norwegian is very similare in writing, but diffrent in pronounciation. You did pronounce it wrong and very american,but i dont blame you. Norwegian and danish is hard. Ps: i can link you a better recipe for cinnamon buns, those looked extremely odd!
5 days of organic makeup
This is so funny to watch as a dane. And the way you pronounce the danish words😂. Great video😘
THANK YOU!
I LOVE hygge. I'm so glad you enjoyed your experience!
For the dutch people hygge seems to means the same as gezellig.
I think I’ve been living a Hygge lifestyle without even knowing!😳
I felt so good just watching thisssssss! Wish I could find this hygge feeling somewhere haha
I love this series, Lucie! Keep them up!
My first comment on any CZcams video :=)
Nice sweater😊
Try eating indian foods
I'm danish and thought this was a really cute video!
5 days of eating only veggies (morning lunch and dinner)
the 'huh' at 5:35 cracks me up :) You are great, Lucie!
Please do a figure skating video!!!!!
Well done!! I am a dane and I approve😁 Nice pronunciation👍👍👍👍
I am from denmark and this video was great i loved it!
OMG where's my danish squad at?🤗👌🏽
Loved the video! Laughed so much 😂❤
how many times does lucy say hygee
100000000 :)
watching this made me feel so sleepy #HyggeLife
This is so awesome! When I experienced this I would always call it "Squishy"... odd but it is like in internal squishy bed and warm blanket! Its so cool to finally have a word to describe the squishy feeling! I finally feel a little less crazy XD
Holy crap that yule log fireplace video looks super realistic on that TV. Gotta check out those cozy/hygge sweaters.
Where are the Danish people squad at?🙋🏼♀️
Astrid Houmand Heyyyy
Is hygge the same as "gezellig" in Dutch?
I think so. Hygge suddenly got all popular and I'm like...wait. Is that the same thing I grew up with my whole life that people are now discovering like it's new? Just the Danish word instead of the Dutch one? All the ways she described hygge are the same things as gezelligheid! I love that this concept has similarly untranslatable-into-english words in multiple different languages.
I’m Danish but in Denmark we don’t need to have a scarf on to hygge. Hygge in Denmark it’s like to be with your family and friends and just have fun and be happy. And it means a lot of things for different people. Love your series.
Omg omg omg so excited to just watch this!!
So I'm done, and this was goood. I hygge-d by getting comfy blankets for my room, extra lamps so the lighting is comfy and not harsh. Then occasionally I will grab tea, a pile of books and enjoy my room with some bossa nova or rain playing.
I love that!!
