The Kladdkaka Day

Last Wednesday (7 Nov) we hosted the beloved Swedish tradition “The Kladdkaka day” where we simply enjoy ourselves by eating Kladdkaka, a type of chocolate mud cake. We had a very big turnout and an overall much appreciated evening! For more photos, check out our Facebook page (link://www.facebook.com/ChalmersAsia/)

Cinnamon Bun Day

To celebrate the Swedish pastry ”kanelbulle”, CITO invited student to the event ”Cinnamon Bun Day” on October 17th. Beyond trying out cinnamon buns, the guests were able to take a look at the latest issue of Asia Magazine. At the end of the event, all 150 cinnamon buns were eaten. We gladly take this as proof of tasty cinnamon buns! Furthermore, we would like to thank the guest for coming by and we hope to see you soon again. We all had a really good time!

Kubb 2017

On May 16th, CITO 16/17 held an event where the popular Swedish game Kubb (sometimes referred to as “Viking Chess”) was played. Unfortunately, there was heavy rainfall during the entire event, emulating a typical Swedish summer night perfectly, however some people were brave enough to conquer the rain and play regardless of the weather conditions. Other than Kubb, a music quiz was held and some snacks were served to the guests inside the CITO office. Thanks to everyone who attended despite the unfortunate weather conditions! This was the last event of CITO 16/17, however please note that the office will remain open at the regular opening hours until May 30th. You are all very welcome to join us there!

Dinner with NCTU Europe

On April 27th, CITO invited the new members of NCTU Europe (who will start their studies at Chalmers in Sweden after the summer) to cook and enjoy some Swedish-style tacos as well as chocolate balls. The dinner was highly appreciated, and CITO would like to wish the new NCTU Europe all the best during their exchange in Sweden. Vi ses i Sverige!

Fettisdagen (Fat Tuesday) 2017

On March 21st, the very popular day “Fettisdagen” (Fat Tuesday) was celebrated in the CITO office. Of course, during this event, a huge amount of Semlas were consumed by the attendants. The guests were also challenged with a (quite tricky) Tipspromenad-quiz with questions about Sweden. We had a really good time, and hope that all of the guests who attended did as well! Stay tuned for more updates and events from us in the future!
