When a Burned-Out Londoner Crashes Into the World's Happiest Country
Picture a caffeine-fueled magazine writer, 33, career goals checked off but happiness levels flatlined. That was me, landing in rural Denmark on a bleak January day because my husband-a serious-looking blond who once auditioned for the Milky Bar kid-accepted a job at Lego headquarters. I'd reluctantly agreed to abandon our London life for this Danish experiment, armed with skepticism and a serious case of burnout. Here's the puzzle that hooked me: Denmark consistently ranks as the world's happiest country despite punishing taxes, endless winter darkness, and shopping options that make a British village look like Manhattan. What were they doing that the rest of us had missed? I decided to spend an entire year living as Danishly as possible, investigating everything from their obsession with candles to their radical approach to work. What I discovered wasn't just research material-it became a blueprint for rethinking happiness itself.
