which I think was the first time that the concept of Hygge was introduced to me, although I think it was explained to me in one offhand sentence as some kind of Danish tradition, meaning cosiness. In fact, I think actually at the time my friend might have said that it is the Danish word for cozy. And so I accepted that in hand and happily played the game for the evening. And what was interesting about it is it wasn't really a game, so to speak. It was... a set of cards, a deck of say, I don't know, 60 cards, each with a question on, that was designed to simply stimulate a conversation, but a really particular kind of conversation, you know, if I can try and draw up some examples of these questions it was things like would you rather be rich with no friends or have many friends but no money or something like where is one place in the world you wish you could go
but haven't had the chance yet? Or maybe something a bit more interesting like, is there any time in history that you'd most like to go? Is there any words you'd like to say to a loved one that you haven't seen in a while? I'm making these up as I go along. I'm pulling them from the air. The questions, I think, were a little more delicate, a little more thought through than that. But I think you get the idea of the atmosphere that this kind of conversation drew up. And some of them were a little more serious than others, a little more heartfelt, thought-provoking. Others seemed designed to be a little bit jovial, a little bit silly. But I have to say it was a really fun game to play, even though, like I say, it wasn't really a game in the traditional sense.
There was no winner, there were no points being scored. It was simply a way of ensuring a particular kind of conversation.
