According to a study conducted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the answer is clear: YES, IT IS! They base their conclusions mainly on the low number of in-flight coronavirus transmission cases detected (44 cases in the whole of 2020 out of a total of 1.2 billion passengers, most of them occurring before face masks were compulsory). We’re going to tell you why these figures are so low.

A study by the United Nations revealed that Denmark is one of the happiest countries in the world, and it seems it all has to do with something called hygge, which is a term that doesn't even translate into other languages.

Hygge, pronounced "hoo-gah", is the art of knowing how to enjoy the simple things in life, feeling cosy and peaceful, sharing a meal with loved ones, or staying at home snuggled up on the sofa watching your favourite TV show. In a country where it's cold almost all year round and the days are quite short, a positive way of looking at life has emerged, to help people appreciate the little things in life.

If you want to be imbued with the hygge spirit, you have to visit Denmark:

Halfway between restaurant, thematic museum and tourist attraction in Shekavica, you will not only enjoy from nice food, you may also be filled with different elements of Ukrainian culture and folklore. Every room represents an Ukrainian life’s different scene and even the same staff is dressed in traditional costumes and interprets in their own way a role while serving diners. Traditional music also plays a prominent role, with live shows every night.

Here you will get lifelong recipes like borch, a creamy red soup elaborated based on beet and meat, which is one of the most typical recipes of the country, but you will also get almost forgotten recipes that their chefs have recovered.

As it is not a conventional restaurant, it is not exactly cheap, but you can come up there just to take a coffee or a tea and enjoy the facility.

Hours: Monday to Sunday from 12:00 to 23:00 h
