Everybody is looking at the Scandinavian people for guidance as to how to live our lives. After all, they are the happiest people in the world.
So what have you got, Sweden?
Lagom is Sweden's answer. Lagom is about living a life in moderation, where the “me” is shifted to the far right of center and replaced with “us”.
This book explores lagom in words and pictures, through the workplace, the home, one's surroundings, food. The pictures are especially meditative; you just want to cut them all out and pin them on your wall for inspiration.
Now, as always, to put these ideas into action.
I didn't hate it, but it felt like a mash up of mediocre term papers and BuzzFeed articles. A bit repetitive and meandering.
