Letters from America
A weekly road trip podcast proudly presented in collaboration with the Embassy of Sweden in Washington, D.C.
In partnership with the Embassy of Sweden in Washington, DC, I am embarking on a twelve-month tour to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence by exploring the people and places of Swedish America through a series of weekly podcast episodes.
The setup is simple: One man (and a dog), one car, one caravan & one journey — a sole explorer going on a quest for "Swedish America".
It’s a coast-to-coast (and back) assignment, meeting both well-known and everyday voices, while traveling through a Swedish America found in New Sweden, Maine, the Bronck House, Coxsackie, Mount Rushmore, South Dakota - and everything in between.

“As we mark 250 years of American independence, we honor not only the approximately 1.3 million Swedes who came during the great wave of emigration, but all those who have made the U.S. their home and left lasting legacies. Today, Sweden and the United States enjoy a strong and forward-looking partnership, working together to address global security challenges, promote innovation and sustainability, and foster economic and technological advancement. The Embassy of Sweden is proud to support this journey of rediscovery — a tribute to our shared past and a celebration of the vibrant relationship that continues to shape our future together.”
