Okay so after five years of my partner coming to me in the states for three months at a time, my children and I finally live here in Sweden with her. I know i dont know a lot of you out there but there are a few friends here I'd like to shout out to!
Some observations about Swedes:
1. They all freaking love candy. Every store in the place has bulk candy and when the sun comes out they freak out over ice cream.
2. I spent my life commuting (In a car). I sold everything to move here and my transportation is currently a Crescent bike. When I first arrived at the train station and got off the train in Malmo, there were so may bikes parked outside that I (being a stupid lazy american) thought there was a big bike sale or something. I now bike and walk everywhere and I love it!
3. Northern Pike fishing is the best here OMG
4. Swedish folks connect everything seasonal with plants and flowers and they actually know the names of them! (I suppose being the birth place of Carl Linneas helped)
5. Its a wonderful, wonderful place to live.
So to my few handful of friends here and to some maybe newish ones to come, HEJ from Sweden
