Vän i Umeå (Friend in Umeå) is a non profit organisation with a network of more than 5000 people. The aim of the network is to create meetings and kinship between people in Umeå from different countries and cultures. Through this network you have the opportunity to be matched with a person or family who you will get to know.
You can also participate in one of our varied groups or take part in our activities, trips and excursions or festivities. The activities and groups in the network change depending on the interests and initiative of the members. Most of the activities are free of charge and for everyone irrespective of age so as many as possible can participate. We consider you a Vän i Umeå (Friend in Umeå) if you have become matched with a friend or if you have participated in any of our activities.
It doesn’t matter what your religion is or where you come from. In Vän i Umeå we all respect one another.
