We were very honoured to be invited by the Oruma Association to today's Onam celebrations at Tryckeriet. 😃🙏

Onam is a harvest festival that comes from the Keralam region of southern India and also honours the return of the mythological King Mahabali, said to have been a wise and generous ruler. 🇮🇳

We enjoyed some wonderful performances, then sat down to a fantastic communal meal of traditional rices, curries, and accompanying dishes. The photo here was just the start of the food! 🍛

We were also delighted to meet the other guests, Swati Sharma from the Indian Embassy in Stockholm, Matou Shamjetshabam from Inva-Sam, and Carl and Ekaterina from Raja Svanberg, influencers and Indophiles! 💃🏽

Thank you to Sharath Krishna for the invitation and to everyone else who made us so welcome! It was a wonderful celebration and we look forward to returning next year! 😊

🗳 Election Season: How Voting Works in Sweden

Curious about how elections actually work here? You're not alone. We've met many internationals who want to understand the electoral process even better.

So we're doing something about it. Join us for a relaxed after-work session where we walk through the Swedish electoral system — how it works, who votes for what, and how the pieces fit together.

Pre-voting has now started — but what does that actually mean? Who can use it, how does it work, and where can you vote here in Helsingborg? We'll cover all of it, plus the essentials of how the system fits together.

Everything in English. All the how, none of the politics. Organised as a collaboration between Helsingborg International Connections, This is Hbg, and Mindpark Helsingborg.

🗓 Friday 4 September
⏰️ Doors open 17:00 · Event 17:30–19:00
📍 Mindpark Helsingborg
Free to attend

Grab a drink, meet other internationals, and finally understand the Swedish electoral process!
