Live like a Nordic: simplicity, nature, happiness


Looking ahead, there are no high-rise buildings in the Nordic countries.

People are dressed in plain style, driving old cars and eating simple food.

The street is quiet after 7pm every day.

No nightlife,

There is no super-luxury consumption that stimulates the nerves.

Where do people live in such places, where does happiness come from?



One word that Nordic people often hang on their lips is "quality of life."

There is an old saying in Sweden: money can be stored,

And time can't be stored, how do you spend time,

It determines the quality of life in your life.

Life filled with houses, cars, and tickets,

And life filled with children, wives, and gardens,

The Nordic chose the latter because they wanted quality, not matter.

Hurry up a little faster,

Is your soul unable to keep up with the speed of the body,

Slow down a bit slower,

Nordic people use their lifestyle to tell you what is true happiness.

Simplicity - reducing the desire of matter, returning to the quiet mind



The harsh natural environment of Northern Europe makes the habit of saving a must:

Rice can't be eaten, but not too good; money can't be without, but not too much.

The simple traditions of the Nordic people can be seen everywhere.

Dress up, no matter how expensive, but be appropriate,

Meet your own temperament and highlight your own personality.

Old lady, 70 or 80 years old, beige windbreaker, skirt,

Lady's leather shoes, the Queen's headscarf,

The temperament gracefully walks down the street and is also a beautiful scenery.

In addition, if someone adds a baby,

Friends and neighbors will wash the appropriate old clothes clean,

Ironed out and sent the post to you.

In the life of the Nordic people, sending old clothes to each other is a common thing.



At the end of the street, meet friends, the cafe is the first choice.

A cup of coffee is 15 krona, a cup of rich and delicious cappuccino.

It is also around 25 kr.

In this way, bathe in the sun bath,

For a long time, I can spend it with my friends comfortably.

There are fewer people in the Nordic countries.

But the road is obviously narrower than Germany.

In the city, there are few straight roads, mostly alleys.

The private cars opened by the locals are also characterized by small ones.

Many people simply go to work by bicycle.

Environmental protection is not only a fashion but also a noble one.

Efficient - work is for a better life



One day lazy to do nothing at night,

Or the clockwork that is tightened to the nine-and-five-night image becomes a commuter.

These two living conditions are unbearable to the Nordic people.

Their work is quite easy,

Free time, enough to make another job.

But they will never do this,

Instead, choose to drink coffee or read a book at a coffee shop.

But don't think that Nordic people drink coffee every day.

Look at the lazy life of the newspaper,

The prerequisite for their happiness is the efficient and enthusiastic working attitude under the high welfare system.

"Don't consider income, first ask if you like it or not.

It’s possible to do it with a job like it,”

This is the value of the Nordic people.

Therefore, work is definitely not a "panic" for them.

In order to improve efficiency, the Nordic people want to do everything possible to create,

In order to have more time to relax and spend time with my family,

Look at so many Nobel winners and world famous companies and you will understand.



This is the turn of time, and everyone is busy.

It has become a world of flying people, and it is a pleasure to go to the country and region where you are interested.

Nordic love travel is notorious,

In the summer, go to the holiday cabin or fly around the world.

Love the family - the comfort of the little prince princess



In the life of the Nordic people, as long as a holiday,

They can’t wait to enjoy the sun with their families.

The joy of beach, skiing and cycling.

The Nordic family has a strong family concept.

Even men will not be based on “overtime and entertainment”.

Sacrifice time with your wife and children.

The first thing to go home from work,

It is to spend time with the family to "family time" without turning on the TV.

They cook together, make games, tell stories, meet,

Few people are nostalgic. Even if you want to work overtime,

Also does not affect the family time.

For example, Father Ning can choose to work overtime at 3 o'clock in the morning.

At least some mothers at home can accompany their children for breakfast.

The father also only lost one hour of breakfast.

Overtime in the early hours sounds incredible.

But it really added a three-hour dinner family time for Nordic dads.
