Let’s join the tomato fight in Spain or the sausage tossing in Switzerland! Let’s twist on the frog dance in Sweden or groove on the Bear dance in Moldova! Let’s compete in the wife carrying race in Finland or the Naked run in Denmark...

Take the survey

(only three questions!)

European Culinary Horrors

If you’re feeling peckish, how about some decomposed shark skin? A spot of fermented raw salmon, perhaps? Maybe with some maggot cheese to round it off. Still hungry?

European Fillers

We say “uh…” or “um…” in English, “euh…” in French, “äh…” in German and “yyy…” in Polish. A two-person conversation can sometimes be like a tennis match and filler sounds are here to help you think!

European Wedding Rings

"Cause if you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it, if you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it..." Yes, sure! But wait a minute, on which finger? Would you put it rather on the left hand? or on the right hand?

European Philosophers

Think about: what is Europe, if not a community of philosophers? What would be Europe without its philosophy? Better than Tinder, faster than OkCupid, just get to know some of the best European philosophers!

European Letters

Are you ready to dive into the fascinating world of European alphabets? Get ready to discover a world where some letters wear hats, others fancy little crutches or strike-throughs, and some even have their own unique accents.
