Moving to a new country is a huge move and moving from Egypt to Sweden certainly presents lots of challenges.

Sweden offers a great deal of cultural and lifestyle options to new comers.

In the beginning you will feel that you can do lots in this country till the Swedish winter hits you. A very dark, very cold, yet very cozy, winter.

There are tough days when you will feel homesick, and you just don’t want to go outside. But, the hard lesson to learn is you have to go outside when the weather is nice, because it will be bad again. Find a happy or a dear friend who can ask you for a Fika date.

And who knows, maybe one day you will feel that you belong in Sweden.

“Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens was and still one of favourite tales before the Christmas holidays.

Ebenezer Scrooge and his famous reference to Xmas “Bah, Humbug” always made laugh.

At the weekend, me and my boyfriend booked 2 tickets to attend the play at Stockholm’s Maxim Theatre.

The play was performed in English which is good for tourists or the expats who live in Sweden.

Adding to the mostly British cast, the play have around ten Swedish children – all of whom can sing, dance and act – and most importantly – do it while speaking English like a native.

The show was marvellous and I had much fun. So don’t be a Scrooge and miss your chance to participate in the best of Christmas traditions. Get your tickets before the final show on 23rd December.
