The Year Of Living Danishly by Helen Russell


When Helen Russell and her husband "Lego man "get the oppertunity to leave Cosmopolitan London for a year to go to Denmark they take it! After much apprehension they begin to ease into life there where things are very very different! 
Just about everything is different from life back home in England ,but it's a really good thing in plenty of ways . Helen tells us about the educational system, work environment, child rearing and the social life of the Danish and for the most part Denmark seems like an absolute dream destination .The Danish people are supposed to be the happiest people in the world and it quickly becomes clear why that is .  I listened to the audio of the book and I thoroughly enjoyed it! After reading quite a few books recently about Hygge this was an ideal read after them .
I highly recommend this fun enlightening  book for anyone with wanderlust or a love of non fiction . Now I am off to find more reading material by this author!
