Hej hej! I’m a Swiss in Sweden (yes, it can be quite confusing...), and I’m settling into life in Stockholm. Join me on my biggest adventure yet: moving up north. And while it’s tempting to say it’s all about sex, drugs, and rock & roll—just kidding!—it’s really about diving headfirst into the excitement of new and old friendships, career, love, and culture. Basically, everything life can throw at you… now with a new city, a new job, and a whole new backdrop.

 

A blank page, wide open, waiting for me to write the next chapter. Moving abroad, especially and always to the Nordics was always a “what if” that lingerd in the back of my mind! And now was and is the time to make that "what if" a "why not" and test the water. Or in my caes the ice. So, here I am, moving to the Nordics - me, myself and I!

 

It’s not just only about a new place; it’s about embracing work-life balance, sustainability, and, let’s be honest, the kind of equality that puts many other countries to shame (yes, I am looking at you Switzerland).

 

I’ll be sharing updates here, and if you know me from my book, *The Game Plan*, you know I bring all the highs and lows with humor, irony, and a hint of boldness. So join me on this journey—and if you prefer visuals (let’s be real, who reads blogs these days?...), follow along on Instagram at melanie.in.stockholm.
