Happy belated birthday till Hadassa ❤ It made me sad to hear that she's struggling, but I can understand so well what she's going through. 💔 At the same time it's a struggle many expats go through but only few people share on there internet I guess. Usually it's all bells and whistles but the reality is different. I think we all appreciate your honesty. The language/ cultural barrier can be a lot sometimes but you're on the right path with SFI. I'd also try to immerse myself in the language as much as possible, listen to the radio or TV on swedish. I still remember my frustration but it will get better. Good luck to you both and thank you for sharing your journey🩵

All the best for Hadessa. 🎂🎁🙂 Yes, I can understand that it's very difficult for her in her job. It's great that you also talk about the difficult things when you emigrate. All the better that Hadessa likes Sweden with its wonderful landscape so much. The beginning is hard, but there are two of you (or three ;-) and you can do it together. It looks strange that snow machines have to be used in central Sweden, but I assume it's to optimise the slopes??? Best wishes to you all (also to your mum, I hope she is well again). ❤

Grattis på födelsedagen Hadassa. Som en del av att lära er svenska skriver jag också på svenska. :) Jag förstår att språket är viktigt nen det kommer, jag inspireras av er resa och hur ni vågar flytta till ett helt nytt land. November är mörkt och lite kallt även för oss svenskar men det blir snart bättre - när snön kommer och så även ljuset igen så blir det fantastiskt. Allt gott till er båda!

In elk land, in elke job is het altijd wel iets. Er zijn overal goeie en slechte ervaringen en momenten. Maak je geen zorgen, alles komt goed, ZEKER WETEN! Voor je het goed en wel beseft noem je Sollefteå je thuis, en kun je alles relativeren want tenslotte woon je in een paradijs. Groeten uit Värmland.

Eerste opdracht: de taal leren. Nooit echt nooit naar Engels overschakelen (Zweden spreken graag Engels, het zou dan moeilijk worden terug naar Zweeds te veranderen).

Tip: hier in Zweden is de SLRK (Svenska LaRo Klubben). Begin 2024 mijn 2.2 ”Puma” Defender verkocht na 10 jaar trouwe dienst. Groeten uit Storfors, nu toch al 11,5 jaar mijn thuis. Erik.

amazing video! 👏 i've missed a few of the latest blogs but feels nice now to catch up on your journey. i felt sad to hear Hadassa is still in the struggle, i truly hope soon things with work will change and go up, this is just a period and transition. it's great that in the free time you explore the outdoors and have fun. sending lots of hugs to both 🤗🤗

Lovely video and great to see the snow x

Grattis på födelsedagen of Gelukkige verjaardag Hadassa! Again a nice video Guy :) Cool to see Solleftea turn into a winter wonderland again.

Grattis på födelsedagen, i've been in your situation before but when I finished my swedish language everything came smoothly. You learn more by communicating to your costumer because sometimes you learn from them. Don't be ashame by speaking wrong swedish word because they understand that you are trying your best. I am sure that you feel better after one year or two. Keep your head high and think positive.

Happy birthday to Hadassa! Her insight was very useful as it addressed some of our anxieties as well. With every new video we're getting a bit more clarity about what it's like moving there, so thank you a lot for this! And yeah, for sure it's starting to look like a winter wonderland, so enjoy it!

What you are doing is reinvention, transformation and that is life! You are doing well because that is to live truly. It does not matter to start from zero again. that is always the other side of the coin as far as transformation is regarded. Be courageous as you already are. You will not repent of growing through those experiences. Look at everything as a privilege, as it truly is! All the best for you!

A dutch guy saying "this is warm for me" and it looks like a freezing rain.... : )). For me 15° C would already be "cold"!! I imagine when is so cold "man kan äta mycket utan att gå upp i vikt". Is that so? Wish you guys all the best. All things will work well and soon you both will be certainly speaking Swedish! I am studying Swedish two or three hours per day in advance before moving to Sweden and your comment helps me to keep studying! Tack!

Keep up Hadassa!👍🙏👏🇸🇪

I takes quite the courage for the both of you to open up like this! You guys are doing a great job and can be proud of what you have achieved so far. I am very impressed with both your perseverance while enduring hardships. Ha, I loved the way how Hadassa's birthday was celebrated! With lots of love, from your friends a little down south 😊 (Also, the pie, the tea, the food, it was awesome🎉)

Happy birthday to hadassa!🎉 Jullie komen er wel samen,weer een prachtige video en succes met de verkoop van je prachtige foto,s. 😀🤘

Grattis på födelsedagen! The language barrier will soon be a thing of the past.

Happy Birthday Hadassa. What were you eating at the end of the video? Looked really good!!!

Grattis Hadassa 🎂🎊 What a nice bithday 🥳

Happy birthday to Hadassa. Alltid kul att få lite inblick i mina vänners liv. Grattis till Hadassa!!

Happy birthday Hadassa 🎉. It's nice to see you and thank you for sharing your experience. The good and the bad. Wishing you both a nice winter

Grattis på födelsedagen Hadassa!🎉

Grattissss Hadassa, thank you for your honest story of how you ar doing. Big hug from me and a cuddle from Cocker Jake. Again enjoyed the video, my favourite sunday movie night.

Grattis på födelsedagen Hadassa 🎁💐 The fastest way to learn a new language is to do like you do. It's fantastic that you can verbalize what's eating you because than you can understand that this language problem will be over very, very soon. So far you are both alive, you have jobs and school. I call that very well done. 👍👏 adjust your demands on yourself...Hej då!

Happy Birthday Hadassa🎉🎉 ja mår hon leva uti hundrade år🥳😁

Happy birthday Hadassa, hope you enjoy your day!! Nice Guy, hope you are progressing with your Swedish!

💙💛

Awesome ❤Love them. Christmas presents! Thanks Guy.

Your videos has a lesson to learn that is why I sent to my relatives living in U.S.

I sent your videos to my relative in America so they can follow all your videos 😊.

Wauw geweldig doorzettingsvermogen loont! Welke website staan de sights op van het wildlife?

Wauw wat een prachtige fotos! Erg leuk bedacht om een beperkte oplage te. Ik ben sindskort een nieuwe volger! Om indrukken op te doen voor emigratie naar Scandinavië voor de nabije toekomst 😉

Love it and what great value especially as a Christmas gift x

The photos look amazing! You have great talent 😊

Beautiful!❤ You will sell many, they are amazing prints!

I think you can use also your photo by making a calendar 2025.

All the best for the launch of the web shop! ❤

You are far too talented to have only sold two pictures in your life.🤯Great website! Good luck!!🍀

I can't wait to get my new print! So excited to have your art in my home. A little piece of wild Sweden. :)

Too bad I don’t have walls for hanging photos..

My thoughts on "Sweden's dark days": I'm originally from Germany. Where I lived, the days were longer in winter than here in Sweden, but they were grey-brown (so no nice coat of glistening snow) and cold and wet. This wet cold drew you everywhere, no matter how warm you dressed. I spend a lot of time outdoors for work and therefore experience this more intensely than most other people who tend to spend their time indoors in winter. In Sweden, the days are shorter in winter than back in Germany, but firstly, the sun shines much more often on these short days than where I lived in Germany. And secondly, the snow wraps everything in a magical cloak. The ugly grey-brown is covered up. What's more, the "dry cold" is much more pleasant to endure than the disgusting "wet cold". I'm happy to put up with shorter days in winter if 1. everything is covered in a white blanket, 2. the dry cold doesn't get on my skin, 3. the sun shines every now and then during the few hours of daylight and, finally, I can see the Northern Lights in the starry (soooo many stars!!!) night sky. All this is worth enduring the Swedish darkness in winter. It's worth it because it reveals so much beauty. ❤For me anyway. 😉 (And then I would also like to say that darkness feels different to me here in Sweden than it did in my old home country.)

Wat een mooie beelden weer. En heel logisch dat jullie weer een ritme moeten vinden in dit nieuwe leven. Mooi dat je niet alleen maar de prachtige plaatjes deelt, maar ook waar je tegenaan loopt.

Beautiful filming.

Leuke video weer! Ik kan me voorstellen dat het even wennen is in de winter. Ik heb een tijdje in Sundsvall, Uppsala en Stockholm gewoond. Het verschil tussen Sundsvall en Stockholm is al duidelijk merkbaar. Jullie zitten nog noordelijker. Zelf had ik er weinig last van. Gewoon wat meer sfeerverlichting ophangen en gaan wandelen zodra de zon er is, als je de tijd er voor hebt. Mijn klasgenoten in Uppsala deden lichttherapie op de universiteit zelf. Dat is niet eenmalig, maar moet je regelmatig doen. Nu woon ik weer (tijdelijk) in Nederland en mijn buurvrouw hier heeft ook een speciale lamp voor lichttherapie in de winter. Ze heeft die lamp aan tijdens het werken in haar werkkamer. Het schijnt goed te helpen. Misschien iets voor jullie om te checken?

Guy, I'm in Colorado on the Front Range of the Rockies. I really liked your video. Certainly, we aren't close to having darkness as your location does. Still the lack of sunlight affects everyone here too. We do have a good deal of clear night skies which showcases the Moon but not even close to the number of stars you have. There are days when I go to work in morning darkness and get to view the full moon over the mountains. It's life-affirming. And the aurora is quite a sight for you. We have had wisps of it this far south this year. I get through the lessening of light intensity by using natural light bulbs. Yet it is the lack of color in my surroundings that does me in. I highly recommend bright color along with the natural light. Best wishes on your channel. Looking forward to your postings.

I grew up close to Sollefteå in junsele and went to school in Sollefteå. I miss being up there, thank you for sharing.

No, you're not the only one in Sweden who wants more snow. 😄I'm there too. ❄🙂❄ I find the gloves very interesting, especially the mittens with the zips. I wish you a good start for your web shop. I don't think the shipping thing is so easy, but you'll manage. Bästa hälsningar och krya på dig! 🍀

Such great shots again! Thank you, Guy. I also have a hard time with the Swedish language (jag kommer från Tyskland). When I have a written text in front of me, I can understand it reasonably well. But when I hear the same text, I understand almost nothing. I find pronunciation really difficult, but it gets better with time. A good exercise is to sing Swedish songs 😉 Bästa hälsningar från Småland och grattis till 1.000 Followers. ❤🙂

So your litteraly living in the "Fear Street" series?

Hi Guy, Nice images again! One tip…be careful flying the drone trough the clouds in fall/winter…there might accumulate some ice on the propellers due to the moisture even with temperatures above zero. The drone can then fall out of the sky. Keep on going 😊
