But dating is hard. So much swiping. So many bad first dates. So much wasted energy. And then try to date in a new country like Swedenβ¦ with a different language, a different culture, different customsβ¦. Im exhausted already just thinking about it.
With the expertise of my Swedish friends and your questions as my guide, I have put together some tips and tricks to navigate the Swedish dating game. You guessed it, Tinder. We all wish that in a place as progressive as Sweden there would be something better than Tinder. Tinder is often the way to meet new people, but word on the street is, it is really there to meet people looking for something more casual⦠if you catch my drift. So if you are just looking for a good time, Tinder can be just the place for you.
But for those of you looking for something a bit more than the casual tinder fling, the best place to look is up from your phone and turn your eye to your fellow classmates. From my extensive research talking to the five Swedes in my class , a place of study or a place of work is often where true love awaits.
So there are many options, but it depends what you are looking for. Unlike in the States, if you are looking for something more serious you do a daytime date. You can take a walk or hike in many of the parks Sweden cities offer or have fika at a cafe. And when the days get longer, your day date options do too!
Go to a restaurant or find a club to bump-and-grind to all night long. And still, you can bundle up and enjoy a nice walk outside in a lamplit city. When things get a little more comfortable, you can always bring date night activities home.
