The most important word in the Norwegian language consists of only three letters: K-O-S. Kos is all about glowing with warmth, kindness ๐Ÿ’—, caring, togetherness ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ, and laughter ๐Ÿ™‚. Feel cozy and find joy ๐Ÿคฉ in the little things.

Typical types of kos you find in Norway:

โ˜•๏ธKaffekos: Breathe in the light morning air. Warm your hands on a freshly made coffee and enjoy the tranquility

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ Familiekos: Spend precious time with your friends and family

๐Ÿ•๏ธHyttekos: Escape your busy everyday life and head to the hytte (cabin)

What is your ๐Ÿ’› moment of โ€˜kosโ€™ ๐Ÿ˜€?

December is one of the coldest โ„๏ธ months of the year but comes with a cheerful holiday atmosphere. In winter, much of Norway transforms into a snow-clad paradise ๐Ÿ”๏ธ. With colours, aromas, and festive cheer ๐ŸŽถ, the Christmas ๐ŸŽ„ markets look like a winter wonderland.

Winter nights are long throughout Norway. The sun โ˜€๏ธ is up for about 5-6 hours a day in Oslo, while Tromsรธ in the Arctic region is colder and in the dark, meaning the sun does not rise above the horizon for a full 4๏ธโƒฃ7๏ธโƒฃ days ๐Ÿ˜ฎ. Chances are good, though, that you'll see the northern lights - the Aurora Borealis - dance above your head!

Skiing โ›ท๏ธ plays a key role in Norwegian culture and history. During winter, you can head to ski resorts, forests ๐ŸŒณ, and mountains โ›ฐ๏ธ to enjoy powdery snow, go for a small hike ๐Ÿฅพor take a reindeer safari. Winter is also a great time to experience some of the worldโ€™s most beautiful train ๐Ÿš‚ journeys, without the crowds.

Norway in winter promises memories that will warm your heart ๐Ÿ’“ for years to come.
