SUMMARY:Semla Eating Fika with Grow
DESCRIPTION:Let’s meet up and share the winteriest Swedish bun! ❄️🍰 \nSnow on the streets of Stockholm is like whipped cream on a semla – it makes even a simple background feel special. We decided not to wait until Semmeldagen and instead gather for our very own semla fika. \nHere’s the plan: \nWe’ll meet at 1:00 PM on January 6\, then head to a cozy spot that serves semlor. If a whole semla feels like too much\, feel free to share one with someone from the group. And if semlor aren’t your thing but you enjoy fika with Grow Internationals\, just order whatever you like – no judgment! ☕✨ \n📍 Preliminary location: Vasastan. \nEveryone is welcome – just remember to register in advance to receive the exact meeting location. Seating is limited\, as the place is very popular. Please note that\, unfortunately\, there will be no gluten-free\, lactose-free\, or nut-free semlor\, as the focus of this place is on the classic semla only. \n  \n❗ Note: The event is free to join\, but participants will cover the cost of their own fika. \nSee you there – it’ll be fun\, delicious\, and very Swedish-style!

SUMMARY:Uppsala: Christmas at Uplands
DESCRIPTION:Every Christmas\, the Uplands Nation house becomes a cozy meeting place for Uppsala’s international community; researchers settling into their new roles\, students staying over the break\, and professionals who’ve made Uppsala their temporary or long-term home.

Each year\, people from all over the world drop by—sharing a meal\, trading stories about their countries’ holiday customs\, and discovering new connections in the process. \nFrom noon to ten on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day\, the nation house buzzes with friendly conversations\, familiar and unfamiliar traditions\, and that comforting feeling that Uppsala can be home\, even when your real one is far away. \nEVENT DETAILS \nSIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER
