01x06 Newly arrived in Sweden - first impressions and studenten!

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

mardi 14 juin 2022 • Durée 57:34

It's a week until Swedish Midsommar and it is also the final episode of Season 1 of The Newbie Guide to Sweden podcast - all about life in Sweden as an expat!

Thank you for listening to the podcast so far, there will be plenty more expat personal stories and interviews during season 2!

To wrap up this season, I talk to a freshly-arrived Newbie, who also happens to be my good mate. Enjoy hearing Josh's first impressions of Sweden, including work cultures, friendliness, snus, lös godis and Swedish pronunciations. We've all been here.

We also briefly discuss Studenten and the bizarre traditions surrounding this rite of passage for teenage Swedes!

Big ups for Andrew from episode 1 taking on the Vätternrunden. More info on that can be found at: https://vatternrundan.se/en/

An unexpected message from Sheona

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 7 avril 2022 • Durée 07:56

Today's episode is... well...slightly different, due to an unexpected Migrationsverket-related incident.

Not everything about being an expat is fun and our team is personally currently experiencing a not-so-fun part of being a Newbie in Sweden.

But this is also a reality of being an expat and something we wanted to share with you!

The GOOD NEWS is that the Newbie Guide to Sweden Podcast will return in May. Until then, why not use this extra time to write us a review or share us with another Newbie?

Have you completed our Salary Survey? In 2017, data showed that immigrants tend to be paid lower salaries than their Swedish counterparts - we want to see if that is still the case! It takes 2mins to complete: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScep8Bp3jlv-MzCh7dL8injGtioWSLotH5On6xB-_eG6DncPA/viewform
