Would you like to learn Swedish?
Have you learnt Swedish in the past and would like to continue?

Then come along to Fika och Snacka, the brand new Meetup group for all those interested in Swedish and Sweden!

The main purpose of the group is for learners of Swedish to get together to practise speaking, and also to socialise! There are no evening classes in Swedish available in Glasgow at the moment, so this could be your only opportunity to speak Swedish and meet other like-minded folk. It is perfect for those who have been learning Swedish by themselves and would like some extra practise, or for those who have perviously taken classes but wish to continue practising and learning.

People from all different levels of Swedish are welcome, from beginners to fluent speakers!

Any native Swedes are also welcome to come along and converse with us - we also plan to celebrate all the Swedish festivals such as Lucia, Midsommar and even crayfish parties! The more the merrier!

There is also a plan to have regular showings of Swedish films in the near future, at Glasgow University, as are outings to see Swedish films at the GFT.

What members are saying

“ Fun mixture of people of different ages and levels of swe. ”

“ It is a good opportunity for people to practise their Swedish, whatever their level, from beginner to advanced. ... ”

      “Hi! We are two south-side mums who have just opened Woodland Outdoor Kindergartens. We thought members of your meet up group might be interested in considering our scandinavian style nursery for their childcare needs. We would like to post some info.”

      “At some point in the near future, I will likely be moving to Sweden so its essential that I learn the language. Your meetup group seems like an ideal substitute to the absense of Swedish classes in the Glasgow area.”

      “Just moved to the area after living in Sweden for 24 years, although originally a Brit. Love Swedish culture and traditions, would be nice not to have t sacrifice them all. Would also be fun to meet other Swedes in the area to chat a little.”
