Hello from Sweden
I am from York, with a Swedish wife and daughter and we've lived here in Sweden for the past 9 months. I've commuted back to the UK for work once or twice a month - possible because we are in Lund, a short train ride to Copenhagen's wonderful Kastrup airport.
I've just starting surfing ex-pat sites, because we've decided to make Sweden our permanent base for the foreseeable future.
About me: academic (but quite normal), keen on choir singing (but have no time given young daughter and crazy life-style). Enjoying Sweden very much as a place to live, but missing British 'muddle along' mentality.

I see you have already made yourself at home and started to post in our Europe forum. Please shout out if you need help with anything. We have a team of concierges who will help you find your way around the forums if you get a little lost. You can find a list of their names at the bottom right hand side of this page.
Complaints or problems should be addressed to a moderator...Mitzyboy is the mod for the Europe forums.
I hope you enjoy your time with us.

Hi John,
I don't think you've been back to BE recently, so I wanted to let you know that since your last visit we've recently added a Scandinavia forum and we have a growing group of members who are in Sweden, or moving there. So if you haven't checked it out yet you can find the forum here: http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=174
So pop over and say hi and get to know everyone.
