"Hygge," the word currently circulating from Denmark, the country that has topped the World Happiness Report three times since in 2012, is one description of To Denmark With Love, written by an American who married a Viking. This is also why that other word "scand-wagon" has become a worldwide invitation for enjoyment, friendship and discovery.
So, what would you do with a dead badger on your doorstep? If you're Judy Falck-Madsen, consternation gives way to laughter, and recollection produces one of many wonderfully humorous anecdotes about town and country living in Denmark. Welcome to the day-to-day joys and tribulations of family life in the land of Hans Christian Andersen. The story lines are furnished by friendly Danes, mischievous children, an assortment of animals, both wild and domestic, and one genuine Viking - the author's husband, Finn. It's a life that's built on a deep respect for nature, tradition, and just plain fun. Denmark provides the setting, but the wisdom gained is universal.
