Description
Heather and her expat friends discuss their experiences and humiliations among their adopted country of Sweden. We discuss tips, observations, and the type of important questions expats want to know, such as "Why are there witches on Easter?", "Why do Swedes never take the last piece of candy?" and "Where can I find decent Tex-Mex food?"

Winnie is originally from Mumbai, India, and moved to Sweden with her husband after spending a few years in Dubai.
Today we have a 2 for 1 because Alexandra grew up in Indonesia, but then spent her later years in Canada. We talk about getting a driver’s license in different countries, glas vs. glass, and how moving helps you to understand your original culture better.
1We look back on our summer, how cheap it is to travel within Europe from Sweden, and taking city cats to the country. Then we project to the upcoming year with talks about how Swedish school works for ninth graders – parties, trips and parent meetings!
We talk about outdoor restaurants and bars in Sweden – because you can’t waste one moment of good summer weather sitting indoors!
In our second 3-part series on Swedish summer, we talk castles! Visit them, eat at them, stay overnight or just enjoy the grounds for free! Some of the places mentioned: DrottningholmGripsholmRosendals SlottTullgarnRoserbergSkoklosterKalmar castleOrebro slottTelleborgsslottHaringeslott
