About Scandification
Scandinavia is a geographic region, but as anyone who has ever visited will tell you, it’s so very much more. It’s a way of life, a set of values, an appreciation for the beauty of the natural world, and a love for the humans who populate it.
Here at Scandification, we celebrate the unique beauty of this amazing region, and attempt to share all aspects of life in Scandinavia: its culture, landscapes, architecture, food, products and especially the people.
We provide an easy-to-navigate one-stop English language hub for everything you ever wanted to know about Scandinavia and more, whether you’re a native, transplant, vacationer, potential expat, or just someone who dreams of life in this gorgeous land at the top of the world.
But we strive to be much more than a simple travelogue or product guide.
We’ll take you on deep dives into every aspect of life in Scandinavia, from visiting the fjords of Norway to what to do while you’re in Malmö to traditional Scandinavian recipes to everything you need to know to prepare for some of Scandinavia’s most unique music festivals.
Why? Because we love it here.
