    Guide on basics, intern to intern

    Welcome Interns: A Guide to Life in Sweden

    Starting an internship in a new country can be both exciting and challenging. As one intern to another, this guide is designed to give you an honest perspective on life in Sweden and help you settle in smoothly. Let’s dive into some practical advice!

    Shopping in Sweden

    Sweden has a lot of options for shopping. There are small local spots, Maxi, Scoops, Hemköp, and Lidl, as much as I can know.

    • Maxi: A good shopping place overall. It is not too expensive, and it is also not too cheap. Usually, Maxi is in the middle for price, but some Maxi shops are massive, so you can find everything you need there.

    • Coop: Similar to Maxi but more expensive.

    • Hemköp: An average option if it is the closest to you. However, I would not prefer it because of the prices and limited options.

    • Lidl: One of the best options in the end. It may not have everything you need (though usually, they do), but compared to the prices, it is the best option.

    Another piece of advice is to look for shops for your specific needs. For example, in Barkarby, near the centrum, there is a really good restaurant with great food and good prices. There is also a Dollar Store nearby and a marketplace for international options, from food to snacks—everything. Dollar Store is probably the best place to get your house supplies. It may be far from your home, but an occasional visit won’t hurt. There is also a beautiful lake there, so why not make it a better visit with that?

    Public Transportation

    Public transportation in Sweden is quite good on pricing compared to other countries. However, it will still cost you enough to impact your budget. The best thing to do is to buy a monthly or longer ticket from the information spots, which are located in almost every station. These are usually near the ticket entrances and look like security stations, but they will help you with your ticket.

    Also, download the SL app when you arrive in Sweden. It is the main transportation app and will be very useful.

    Food and Breaks at Work

    We have a fridge and a spot for food. If you do not want to spend too much money during your breaks or lunches, you are more than welcome to store your items here. You can quickly prepare your food, snacks, or drinks.

    Housing

    Housing can be quite expensive in Sweden, and in general, it is more expensive than average. Coliving spots can ease that up. Always explore your options because there are plenty, such as COLIVE and Allihoop.

    Communication

    Everybody here speaks English well enough to communicate with you for anything, so do not be afraid to ask questions. People are super helpful as long as you respect them.

    Weather: Prepare for the Cold

    Sweden is very cold. You might think you know what cold is, but it will likely be colder than you expect. From personal experience, I can tell you to be prepared. Invest in good-quality winter clothes—jackets, boots, gloves, and hats will be your best friends.
