Fika!
I moved to West Sweden from Scotland in 2011 and now live just outside Alingsås – Sweden’s capital of fika. Apart from being a very cute small town it is littered with great cafés, so meeting up for a traditional coffee, cake and chat seems like an obvious thing to do. It’s an opportunity for you to get to know West Sweden a little better and if you need help with planning some places to visit, I’ve been all over the region and should be able to help.
About Your Host, Robert
My name is Rob, I work in tourism and moved from Scotland to Sweden in 2011.
Who this is for
Anyone who is visiting Sweden on holiday, or perhaps has recently moved here. Liking coffee and/or cake is probably a good thing too :-)
When?
It varies - get in touch and hopefully we can find a day that suits us both.
Where?
Alingsås is easy to get to by train from Gothenburg.
Price
No charge, but we pay for our own fika.
Languages Spoken
My native language is English, I'm OK at Swedish, and I'm pretending to be learning Italian.
