Norway, Denmark and Sweden rank among the happiest countries in the world, but Scandinavians may not always look so happy at first sight. Why so?

Cracking the Scandinavian Code is a series of books that use humour and illustrations to describe these very special Nordic cultures. This first book explains the social culture of Scandinavia: how Scandinavians interact, communicate and socialise.

Scandinavians will learn more about their common culture while foreigners will understand better how unique and special Scandinavians are.

The book was written and illustrated by Julien S. Bourrelle and Elise H. Kollerud. Julien is a Canadian rocket scientist and public speaker who lived in a variety of cultures before moving to Scandinavia. Elise is a Norwegian entrepreneur and publisher with a Danish heritage and a background in sociology.
