Are you ready to start your new life in Sweden?

Why do so many people talk about moving abroad to start a new life yet so few take action to make it happen? Maybe it’s because they don’t believe they have what it takes to succeed in another country.

Well, we’re here to tell you moving abroad to start a new life in Sweden isn’t a fantasy. We did it. Thousands of other ordinary people have done it. And you can do it too.

We moved to Sweden 15 years ago, and we’ve spent most of our time here helping many many others do the same. Our work has given us a unique insight into the problems people struggle with most, and we’ve put everything we’ve learnt into a structured, manageable form to save you precious time, effort, and frustration—as well as avoid all the mistakes we and many others have made before you.

This book series will help you cut to the reality of life in one of Europe's most progressive countries and will show you how to become a part of it whether you live inside or outside of the EU. We’ve designed the series to help you start a successful new life in Sweden, with the emphasis very much on—successful.

And there’s more

• Do you know there is free assistance available to help you move to many regions in Sweden? We show you how to contact the top 50 areas that are actively recruiting newcomers to live in their communities today.
• Are you aware that Swedish industry and public services have a skill and labour shortage and are desperate to employ people with the right qualifications and experience? We tell you how to find the regions that need your skills and how to cut through the red tape and meet the right people and government departments to begin work.
