    Thank you ❤ this is actually not brief, this is extensive analysis and gives a pretty much view of how the prices would be.

    "SEK" is the official designation for the Swedish currency which is called "Krona" = "Crown". It's the same as for the US dollar for example, whose official designator is "USD".

    Great video! Full of useful insights for someone who has never been to Sweden before. I'm moving there to study this Autumn and I feel more prepared now. Comparing the prices to what they are here in the UK, they are more or less similar, so luckily I won't experience much of a shock in that area. I don't live in Stockholm yet, however having surfed the internet in a search of a decent flat for me and my partner I can already agree that the struggle is real! But fingers crossed we'll find something soon. Can't wait to experience the city for myself soon!

      @AnastasiaKVL  3 роки тому +7

      Hi! Sorry that this is your impression of the video, hope it works out for you! 🙂
      My goal was not to show how to cut costs and manage to live on a certain amount of money, but to talk in general about how much things/activities cost here.
      I am sure you can live on those salaries, but the truth in Stockholm is that it comes with some expectation adjustment, for example living with flatmates and not eating out often (especially now that it's not recommended).
      It's not impossible, I moved here with a salary not much higher than that, but it's important to have the right expectations, Stockholm is not cheap for living. In fact, it's in the top 5% most expensive cities in the world: livingcost.org/cost/sweden/stockholm#:~:text=The%20average%20cost%20of%20living,out%20of%2060%20in%20Sweden.
