The Swedish Language and Culture
You will be sitting in a welcoming atmosphere where we will share, listen and learn about people’s experiences of Sweden and the wonderful Swedish culture. This is a great opportunity to get more familiar with Sweden and learn some Swedish!
Monthly Free Zoominar
One Saturday per month you will have the opportunity to learn some Swedish, get familiar with the Swedish culture and you will get a chance to meet people who have a personal connection to Sweden.
At these free socials, we dive into our experiences of Sweden and Swedish culture. How and why does Sweden appeal to you? What is it that makes Sweden a unique country for you? What experiences do you have of the Fika culture? We will also talk about the differences between Sweden and the USA in areas such as the educational system, health care, and environmental sustainability. We will explore these and other questions together in Swedish and English.
I can't wait to get together and explore more about Sweden!
I'll be facilitating us gently with questions and breakout rooms in this 45-minute session.
Time: 10:30 AM (ET) / 9:30 AM (CT) / 8:30 AM (MT) / 7:30 AM (PT)

National Cleanup Day
For the 2021 National Cleanup Day we tried Plogging, which is when you pick up trash while jogging or walking. This activity was first started in Sweden and the name comes from a combination of the Swedish words “plocka” (pick up) and jogging. Learn Swedish Now even added our own twist with Skateboarding thrown into the mix!
Please join us for the next National Cleanup Day held every third Sunday in September!
