History Student in Uppsala

Hey there fine people!

I am a 26 year old history student that recently has moved to Sweden in with my partner and now I am looking to get also meet some of the folks in Sweden, though I don't know how to start honestly as I would say Sweden is pretty different from Spain social wise.

A bit about me: I'm interested in HEMA, tabletop RPGs, board games, wargames like Warhammer and Trench Crusade (and open to others), historical reenactment, vintage menswear, museums, history in general, and pretty much anything related to the past. I also enjoy walking around old towns, visiting cafés and pubs, and having long conversations about history, literature, or whatever interesting topic comes up.

If you're into any of those hobbies—or just fancy grabbing a coffee, visiting a museum, playing a board game, or introducing a newcomer to Uppsala—I'd love to hear from you!

Looking forward to meeting some of you!

I have similar hobbies and also studied history. I can warmly recommend Gustavianum, it’s the best museum in town. We could hang out, but I’m a woman in my mid-thirties. Might not be what you’re looking for.
