Home About Friends Overseas FO Australia FO Scandinavia

Americans visiting Scandinavia

Since its beginning in 1972, Friends Overseas has offered a unique approach  to international travel...whether one is traveling alone or with another  person, whether independently or as part of a tour group.  Based on  person-to-person contacts, Friends Overseas makes it possible for American  tourists (families, couples and single persons) to meet Scandinavians who share similar interests.

Most Americans traveling abroad have long known that, despite their eagerness  to meet some of the locals on a personal basis, the only people they ever get to see are hotel clerks, tour guides, salespersons, waiters and other  tourists.

As a member of Friends Overseas, you will receive the names/contact information of several of our Scandinavian members. You are then expected to write briefly (letter or e-mail) to each member, giving the dates you will be  in their city.  Our Scandinavian members in Denmark, Finland, Norway and  Sweden have expressed an interest in meeting American tourists to help make their visit more enjoyable by introducing them to their cities, their families, and their friends.

If this sounds interesting, please send a self-addressed, stamped envelope (business size - 9 1/2 x 4 inches) for more information to:
