It’s been three years since I published my first/only winter fun list. A few things have happened since then, like “hygge“* has replaced “koselig” as the Scandinavian #goals of choice, oh and I have a kid now.
* “..this Danish concept cannot be translated to one single word but encompasses a feeling of cozy contentment and well-being through enjoying the simple things in life…”
I LOVE being warm and cozy! But this time of year, in addition to the joys of the Great Indoors, I also need inspiration for getting outside. Thus, a bit of both on this updated version of the winter fun list.
