On April 30, Stockholm takes on a medieval atmosphere as Valborg (short for Valborgsmässoafton) is celebrated.

This is one of Sweden’s most cherished spring traditions and a perfect way to enjoy the season with others. Whether you’ve celebrated Valborg before or are …

March is here – but is spring? That doubtful mood inspired the Grow team to organize this laid-back get-together. The plan is very flexible; all you need is some free time on Thursday. We’ll simply meet and take it from there. We’ll grab a fika (or something savory), get to know each other, catch up with familiar faces, and then …

It’s Marzipan Day in Sweden, but you’re welcome …
Let’s meet up for pastries and lights! ✨ When the days are dark and cold, a bit of light – and a warm fika – makes all the difference. Nobel Lights add a special artistic sparkle, and before Grow Internationals takes a Christmas break, we’d love to gather for a cozy get-together at Kungsholmen. Here’s the plan: We’ll meet at …
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. The tradition started back in 1969 with a handful of students who couldn’t travel, and it’s grown into one of the city’s most welcoming …
