** In Scottish, "coorie" means
to snuggle or nestle. It has evolved to describe a lifestyle similar to the Danish concept of hygge, focusing on finding contentment through simple pleasures like enjoying the outdoors and then returning to a cozy home for comfort. It encapsulates a sense of well-being and a connection to nature and home comforts.
