Is there a possibility to immigrate to your country specifically in your town? I'm from Philippines by the way. I really appreciate your videos.

@@fiore-livinglife_0630 where specifically does not matter. I recommend you travel first,tourists can get a tourist visa for a total 90-180 days in Sweden per year so you can visit different regions and experience all seasons and what the day to day is like after you get a little used to it so you notice if you truly would be happy to live and work here or if you are just in love with the idea/dream. But yes,you can apply for work visa and residence permit. SFI ( Swedish for immigrants ) is a free education you can apply for,you can also apply for money ( Not a loan, around 250 dollars monthly payment for studies) in many cases if you want a professional teacher and meet other foreigners so you can network and talk about tips and such to better integrate and understand the culture,language and Swedish/Nordic people,make local Swedish friends find work etc. Sweden has no issues with phillipines or the filipino/pinoy people so it would be as easy or hard as for an American,Australian,korean etc. .if you can support yourself and start with a work and residence permit after definetly spending a lot of time as a tourist exploring as much as you can and different seasons you can definetly go from permanent resident permit to citizenship in time if thats your goal. Do spend a few weeks in each season and stay in south,middle and north etc as the difference between seasons and the land is more extreme the further north or south you go/ near or far from the 3 major cities göFothenburg,Stockholm and Malmö/Malmo. Far north you have 30 days in winter when the sun never rises and night lasts one month. This is called polar night In summer you have up to 30 days the further north you live,where the sun never goes down and you have a month of sunlight and not even a minute of darkness. This is called midnight sun. Towards the middle and south of Sweden you dont have this ,you get a few hours of light even on the datkest day,and a few hours of night even on the brightest day. If after visiting a lot of days and exploring and experiencing our land,people and culture not only for a week as a tourist but a long time so you find out if you could be happy here long term,it is absolutely possible to move,work and live here if you truly end up wanting to do so. 🙂

@Kalle Flodin As someone who grew up in Stockholm and Härnösand,i am also saving up and trying to move away from a workplace and into a digital environment so i can move,not necessarily to Sollefteå but to somewhere around the middle north. Maybe somewhere between just south or north of Sollefteå but not further north than near Luleå because i wouldn-t mind having a smaller to medium city in reasonable driving distance Aslong as my home is further away and i don't actually see the town/city from my property Packed like a sardines in a can in Stockholm city is not and has never been my oreference,i dont want the live exactly as you do but a version of it and its very inspiring and motivating to see how you made it happen and honesty about pro's and cons,costs,what you gave up and what you gained. The great,the good and the bad/difficult. TACK!

@@FreeRangeHuman1 thank you so much for sharing this idea. I will do the tourist visit first so I would have the real experience before making my decision. Thanks a lot sir

My hometown ❤️ I live in Malmö but I long for the northern countryside

Oh my god, Jonna! Didn't expect to see you here! This kind of video Is always calm & heartwarming like yours!.

Aw, thank you so much Jonna 😍 but I still can't believe that we've never run in to each other there 😅 yet!

@@KalleFlodin Kalle, behövs bil ifall man ska bo I skellefteå exempelvis, eller andra platser i norra sverige. Kan man använda cykel istället tror du?

@@biuipbuhoibbhilhbilbulilib7911 vi bor i närheten av Sollefteå och jag skulle säga att det beror på var och hur du bor. Om du bor inne i Sollefteå behöver du ingen bil, men om du bor som Kalle i stuga i skogen eller som vi gör på en gård så är det svårare utan bil. Jag vill inte säga omöjligt, men nästan. Men Kalle får svara vad han tror!

Wow it's Jonna! I love your content!

@europeisbetterthan5269 It's a beautiful place. When I contemplate living in Sweden, it is certainly a place like the video shows, as opppsed to Stockholm or Malmo. Which places in Sweden did you visit? I'm sure that Sweden was probably a far more desirable place to live 3 or 4 decades ago than it is today?

Gnarp? Bergsjö?

Small town (which for me is about 5000 people. Not too small not too big) is the best.

I'm so happy you liked it Rachel 🥰❤Hope you can come by one day soon!

I hope you do show what type items you guys buy for your typical groceries and give us an idea of your prices. But no needs to go item by item to give a price. An overall average price would be fine.😀

Thank you 😊❤️

How are you doing today? I hope you’re healing, wishing you the best

Take Turkey Tail Mushrooms or the Extract! Take A Lot!

In Sweden: About 7-9 % inflation hike in the last months, food prices have risen similarly if not more.

Also a Minnesota raised and of Swedish heritage person, I love 💕 watching you, Kalle, and Christine living in Northern Sweden. My Farfar is from this northern area somewhere and it’s no surprise to me at all that he choose to settle in Northeastern Minnesota as it resembles Northern Sweden in many ways. I grew up on the original homestead as a second generation American. I like to feel like I’m finally home. 😊

I'm also an American with Swedish heritage, my grandfather was born in a small town about 100km from here. I can imagine my retirement here, especially with the low cost of houses.

Its fascinating and awesome to hear lot of Swedish heritage are from Minnesota, My father side apparently have cousins living there, Exciting to know having some heritage in america. Certainly recommend to take a trip too the places like this in Sweden, I am certain you will like the northern nature, activities and the best of all the food. we are closing in to winter too!

@@Eaglebrace Minnesota was home to many Swedish immigrant settlements during the latter half of the 19th century. The landscape and climate reminded them of home, I was told. My great-grandfather came at the age of 18 and was a lumberman near Stillwater, MN. He met my great-grandmother there, who was also an immigrant. They took advantage of the Homestead Act and established their own successful farm, which remained in the family for 75 years. They belonged to a Swedish Lutheran Church in their community, where the sermons were preached in Swedish up until 1945. I look forward to visiting Sweden and the places where my forebears called home before they came to America. My father's side were Norwegian, so I plan to go there, too.

My grandfather and his brother moved from northern Sweden in the mid-1920s, along with their uncle Gustav. Grandpa Bror settled in the Chicago area, Uncle Philip moved to one of the Carolinas, but Uncle Gus settled near Minneapolis after moving back and forth between Chicago and Alaska for a few decades before and after the war. In my family photos I’ve inherited, I have a great one where Gus wrote on the back “What I did on my 55th birthday,” and it was a terrific photo of him ski-jumping in Alaska! I never met Uncle Philip since he died the year I was born, but I was fortunate enough to have met Uncle Gus once when we spent our summer vacation in MI, WI, and MN. He was a really cool elderly man who stayed up until 4 am playing pinochle and then got up on Sunday morning to watch old-school pro wrestling. Both he and Grandpa had lovely Swedish lilts in their voices. I especially remember Grandpa’s and how he would call me his “little sweetheart.”

Va fint att höra 🥰 tack ❤️

🤣

Thank you ☺️ ❤️ You should come and visit!

Hi an other Yvonne fan of Kale and christina live it ☺

Hello from a fellow Vermonter! I love Kalle's videos for some of the same things. Something I wonder about is the population. Is it growing, shrinking like in Vermont, or fairly stable? We are seeing our schools lose so much because of the decline in population.

Finland is amazing

I've moved to the town in Northern Finland 3 years ago and it's been equally wonderful and hard. Still here, so maybe a bit more wonderful 😅

Welcome to Sollefteå! 🥰

Welcome to Sollefteå then 😉

Aw, that's really sweet of you to say, thank you so much 🥰❤️
