North: How to Live Scandinavian by Brontë Aurell

Brontë Aurell . Unknown Year . English

This complete guide to the Scandinavia is filled with travel tips, cultural and historical facts, recipes, and inspirational photography from the Nordic nations. Why are Scandinavians constantly topping the happiness table? How do you get more Scandi-style in your life? Just how do you use lagom? Whether you want your apartment to look like it belongs in Copenhagen, to workout like a Norwegian or to make cinnamon buns like a Swede, this is the ultimate insider’s guide to the countries of the north. Full of inspiration and ideas, how-tos and recipes to help you experience the very best of Scandinavian design, philosophy, cookery, and culture, this honest behind-the-scenes look at the culture provides an invaluable insight into the wonderful and visually stunning world of Scandinavia. Like her viking ancestors before her, Brontë Aurell left Denmark to explore the world beyond home shores and in her travels has come to understand the fascination with her kinfolk, as well as seeing the idiosyncrasies of the Scandinavian lifestyle that locals take for granted. With a signature wit and a keen eye for detail, she takes you on a journey through fjords and mountains, farmlands, and cities to better understand these three nations and what makes each one so unique. So get outdoors, learn the life lesson that there's no such thing as bad weather (only bad clothing), and you may discover your inner Scandi sooner than you think. From the How To Live... series of insightful guides to some of the most intriguing cultures and locations on the planet, other books available include How To Live Japanese, How To Live Korean, and How to Live Icelandic.

About the Author

I'm Bronte Aurell and I own the ScandiKitchen Cafe in London, England. Our cafe was set up in 2007 - because we (my partner Jonas and I) missed food from our homes in Scandinavia. We wanted to create a place where ex-pats could find the foods they missed from home and where everybody else felt welcome to pop by and enjoy some nice open sandwiches, cakes and coffee. The first book ScandiKitchen is about the everyday dishes we cook at home - both savoury and sweet. Fika & Hygge (2016) is all about baking - good, solid home baking - from pastry to cakes and comfort bakes and cookies. The mini book Hygge is about just that: Finding space and time to be with family and friends in a busy world. Then Nørth came along - a book about Scandinavian culture and how to be more Scandinavian in your day to day life. It's quite tongue in cheek - and about how we differ as countries. 2018 was a busy year: ScandiKitchen summer was published and then in October 2018, ScandiKitchen Christmas. Between all our books, I think you're bound to find the recipe you're looking for. You can follow me on www.bronteaurell.com for updates and more information. Do pop by and say 'hej' if you are ever in London. www.scandikitchen.co.uk
