America, let’s get it together. I don’t know if it’s arrogance or ignorance, but some Americans think that we are hands-down the best, the happiest, the “number-one” at everything imaginable.
I love living in the United States, and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else (permanently), but I have to admit that a lot of people here aren’t necessarily happy.
But in Denmark, folks are incredibly happy. In fact, the country ranks at or near the top of the World Happiness Rankings year after year. So what’s behind the happiness in that Scandinavian country of just under 6 million people?
Denmark is ranked among the best countries in the world when it comes to lifestyle balance. Denmark takes the bronze award in the Lifestyle Index that compares working hours, sleep quality, happiness, and life expectancy across countries. Read more here: https://t.co/wO39AwjWRx

The rankings are based on statistics including crime, income, health, and civic engagement. People were also asked questions about how often they experience positive and negative emotions.
But there’s more than that when it comes to figuring out why Danish people are so happy. They have access to good health care and education, they have a stable government, and they happily pay the highest taxes in the world because they believe this helps create a better society.

По статистике их здесь в два раза больше, чем автомобилей, представляете?
⠀ Я уже второй раз за год в этом чудесном городе, и каждый раз он мне нравится всё больше 
⠀ К тому же нам дважды везло с погодой, а как вы знаете, Скандинавия в этом плане очень непредсказуема

It basically means having comfortable, high-quality social interactions with family and friends and being content with enjoying the simple things in life.
A hygge evening could consist of a family playing board games, having coffee with a friend in front of a fireplace, or eating a quiet, easygoing meal with someone. Hygge is so important to the Danish character that the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen called it “a defining feature of our cultural identity and an integral part of the national DNA.”
Hygge is essentially going to the pub with friends, having a Sunday roast with your family, watching a movie with your partner, drinking a cup of tea. In Denmark, hygge isn't 'an event'. It's also just a phrase we say a lot.

Places can also be described as “hyggelige”, such as a person’s home, which is obviously a compliment and means that it is cozy, comfortable, and welcoming. Danish people use hygge to combat everyday stress and to build camaraderie.
I don’t know about you, but I love this concept.
FYI, in the 2019 World Happiness Rankings, Denmark came in second place and was edged out for #1 by Finland. The U.S. sits at #19.

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Restorans 1221 is located in the historical center of Riga, next to Dome Square in Old Town. This blue building was once a medieval building, but currently a high-class restaurant with very tasty food! Getting a table during high season is really challenging. The year 1221 was very significant in the history of Riga as many events had taken place during that time. The first street appeared where the first building was built which is now called as Restorans 1221. 
⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 
5 PLACES TO EAT/DRINK AT RIGA: ⠀ ⠀ ✓ Skyline Bar – Amazing view of the city over some cocktails 
⠀ ⠀ ✓ Street Burger – Have eaten one of the best falafel burgers here! 
⠀ ⠀ ✓ Fat Cat eklērnīca – A very cute cafe with delicious eclairs for quick bites in old town. 
⠀ ⠀ ✓ Riviera – A delicious seafood restaurant with latvian twist in the art nouveau district.
