The feeling one gets when sitting in front of a crackling fireplace enjoying the warmth.
Peiskos is a Norwegian word that describes the feelings one gets as they sit in front of a fire enjoying its warmth. Peiskos is a beautiful feeling and it’s exciting to find a word that actually describes that cozy in the bones sensation that comes from curling up in front of a crackling fire and simply enjoying the warmth, the stillness, the soothing snaps and cracks of the fire, and the mesmerizing flickering of the flames. Yes, even in this digital age, peiskos can be achieved with a bit of technical magic since the sounds and sights can be re-created (even the warmth, depending on what sort of device you’re using, lol). Peiskos is all about a feeling, an ambient mood and certain sort of peaceful, contented calm.
