ABOUT 

ALL SCANDINAVIA

All Scandinavia is for people who want to know more. Unlike many other countries, the people of Scandinavia have been isolated at times because of geography and their language. As supporters of peace, they’ve created an example for the rest of the world.

This site is dedicated to all those who’ve yearned to make their first trip to Norden, the North, and to all those who have and have come away with a craving for more. All Scandinavia aims to give you more of Scandinavia–its history, politics, culture, cuisine, and its people–with an emphasis on history, so on your first or next visit, you, too, will appreciate all that it has to offer.

This site is meant to be an interactive one. You’re encouraged to ask questions and even contribute tips about places you’ve visited or people you’ve met. Just as visiting Scandinavia can be an adventure, so this site is embarking on an adventure of its own–to show the world all of Scandinavia.
