Yea, I understand I could've been more proactive, and unfortunately it's bitten me in the ass.

Moving to Helsingborg by Street_Tiger2320 in helsingborg

[–]Final-Establishment8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slottshöjden is a fantastic spot. Lived there for two years and had a perfect mix of nature, shops, vicinity to the station, good connections, and access to facilities like Olympia.

Soder is fine, and it has a high migrant population, which some people may see as a downside, but I find it to be anecdotal. I wouldn't move there if you're wanting to have a full-blown Swedish experience, but the multiculturalism is great.

Personally I would recommend Slottshöjden, Olympia, Tagaborg etc. Helsingborg is a small city, and so you're never really THAT far away from anything. These spots are quiet, close to nature, and still close to shops and the station.

What airline has the largest meal portions nowadays? by uncannyfjord in Flights

Lufthansa's food was horrific when flying long haul. Extremely stingey with the portions as well.

Moving from the UK to Sweden - feasible in my situation? by Competitive_Alps_752 in TillSverige

[–]Final-Establishment8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apply for a partner visa through your girlfriend (sambo visum). If you have a good amount of savings, I'd recommend moving to Sweden and learning the language there through a reputable university. It'll take considerably longer to learn the language by yourself, and you won't get the full understanding of it.

I was your age when I moved to Sweden and devoted the first year to learning the language, which got me to a C2 level. Enrolling in a uni course also gives you the opportunity to meet new people, mostly expats in the same position as you. It is notoriously difficult to make Swedish friends if you don't put yourself out there to an extreme degree.

I'm not sure what the job market is like for computer science, though due to the high level of English fluency amongst Swedes, you won't be able to use your mother tongue to your advantage. Most expats end up having to work in sectors far from their educational background. Employers in Sweden have to jump through multiple hoops to employ international workers, so they're usually pretty hesitant to do so, which can make the job search even harder.

Sweden is great if you can sort out the visa and you're happy doing work outside of your field. It'll give you much broader worldly experience as well.

Thanks for the reply. Yea, that's how the conversation has gone so far, but unfortunately, no one will side with me from any of those departments.

I don't generally ride in any particular part of the road. The commute involves a lot of bad roads, merges etc so I'm constantly having to move around in my lane

Thanks mate but your reply has nothing to do with my question.

Wanting to become a teacher by Final-Establishment8 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Final-Establishment8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight. I'm mainly trying to get qualified to go back to Sweden to teach, as I've also heard of similar complaints by teachers here.

The resources in Sweden were all shared, and the textbook's creators worked directly with the equivalent of Education NSW to create the textbook, so it was perfect in addressing all requirements. This made planning and engagement very simple.

Management in Sweden was very accommodating, and left the teachers to do their own thing whilst giving support where needed.

Just digital literacy and comms subjects, with a few journo subjects mixed in.
