Travel to Sweden, getting drinks and chats (7)
I believe the answer is:
gossips
'chats' is the definition.
(gossip is a kind of chat)
'travel to sweden getting drinks' is the wordplay.
'travel' becomes 'go' ('go' can be a synonym of 'travel').
'to sweden' becomes 's'.
'getting' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'drinks' becomes 'sips' (sipping is a kind of drinking**).
'go'+'s'+'sips'='GOSSIPS'
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for gossips that I've seen before include "They like talking about people's private lives" , "Tongue-waggers" , "They love to talk about people's private lives" .)
