Description

Welcome to A Swedish Fika, a podcast about the unique culture of Sweden and how it compares to life in the United States. I'm your host, PixelPia, and I have had the privilege of living and working in Sweden and the US. In this podcast, I will share my personal experiences and insights on the differences and similarities between the two countries. From the concept of "lagom" and the tradition of fika to the role of the welfare state and the challenges of integration, this podcast offers a unique perspective on the Swedish way of life. Tune in for a lively and thought-provoking discussion on what makes Sweden and the US both similar and distinct.https://aswedishfika.com
