Expats in Sweden - a podcast from Turning Point Veronica Lax

My goal for this episode was to hear from a couple where one is Swedish and the other is an expat. I wanted to hear how they had coped with their cultural differences and how the expat was able to adjust to Sweden.

Today's episode is about the darkness in Sweden during the winter months and how that affects your mood. We interviewed Zeynep from Turkey and how she struggled to stay awake and energized. Rossana shared her research knowledge about light therapy and other important factors to help your through the darkness.

In this episode, we interview two expats that moved here with a Swede and decided to stay after their divorce.

Our focus, in this episode, is to understand what it's like to move abroad with kids. We interviewed Edurne from Mexico who moved here with her family over a year ago during the pandemic.

Today we are talking with Christelle Pottinger who is an expat working as a career coach here in Stockholm. Also, we interviewed Samara who came here from the US with her Swedish husband and their three kids. She tells us about her struggles navigating the Swedish job market.

Today we will mostly listen to two interviews with expats who have lived here for awhile, adapted and feel at home in Sweden.
