For Californians it may be difficult to understand the differences between the Swedes, Danes and Scandinavians. Upon research into the subject, it turns out that even the Swedes, Danes and Scandinavians aren’t quite sure what makes their cultures different. Though the people look similar, they speak different languages (generally using English to communicate,) use different currencies, and they feel their countries and cultures are uniquely their own. Californians can attend festivals that celebrate the various cultures and perhaps, ask someone in attendance if they know the difference.
3 Unique Festivals Celebrating Cultures:
- Scandinavian Festival in Thousand Oaks April 5-6, 2014
- Kingsburg Swedish Festival May 15-17, 2014
- Danish Days in Solvang Sept. 19-21, 2014
