Typically Swedish – Traditions, Customs, Recipes and Everyday Life in Sweden
Customs, habits, recipes and little rituals – gathered in one place.
Sweden in the little things
Sweden isn’t just Midsommar and red wooden houses. Many Swedish traditions and habits meet you right in the middle of everyday life: at fika, at shared meals, in small rituals and, of course, at the festivals throughout the year.
Here I collect typically Swedish customs, recipes and things I come across in Sweden – from kanelbullar to the little quirks of everyday Swedish life.
Swedish Traditions, Recipes & Everyday Culture
Each tile leads to its own page. There you’ll find stories, background and recipes about everything that, to me, simply feels Swedish.
Little scenes from everyday Swedish life
Often it isn’t the big sights but tiny images that make Sweden for me: a set wooden table, coffee by the window, a bright kitchen, cinnamon buns fresh from the oven, and that special interplay of simplicity, warmth and everyday life.

“What’s typical is rarely on the calendar.
Most of the time it’s on the kitchen table.”
