Only 4 regions offer the vaccine for free to guys right now:
✅ Region Skåne
✅ Region Halland
✅ Region Jämtland Härjedalen
✅ Region Värmland
 7 more are planning to join:
➕ Blekinge
➕ Kronoberg
➕ Norrbotten
➕ Uppsala
➕ Västernorrland
➕ Västerbotten
➕ Västra Götaland

Should it be free for everyone under 27 - no matter their gender? Drop your opinion in the comments 👇

🎲 Remember when I said Göteborg made it onto the Monopoly board?
 Well… guess who had to add it to their collection? 🙋‍♀️

I already own the Wrocław edition (🇵🇱) and a vintage Pokémon Monopoly from probably 1999 (yes, I still have all the cards). So this was non-negotiable.

But here’s the catch: 🛒 The Göteborg edition was sold out online or just unavailable everywhere I checked.
 Luckily, you can still grab it in person - at the gift shop next to the Götheborg ship! @theswedishshipgotheborg

💸 Price? Around 500 kr. 📦 Fresh batch just arrived. ⏳ Get yours before the collectors raid the shelves again.

Because let’s be honest… How often do you get to buy Baltic-harbor real estate in board game form?

1️⃣ Save this for your next visit. 2️⃣ Send to your fellow Monopoly hoarder. 3️⃣ Follow for more fun, finds & facts from Sweden.

📉 Inflation shock in Sweden!
 Prices rose 2.9% in June - way more than expected.
 Experts call it a “cold shower” and warn it could stop future interest rate cuts.
 But others say: stay calm, one jump doesn’t mean a crisis.

📌 Real impact? The Riksbank might hit pause on lowering rates this year.
 Next week’s final inflation report will be key.

Literally me in July, standing like 😐☕ just waiting for my favorite café to reopen in August.

How is it that the entire world somehow finds extra staff to cover summer vacations… and Sweden just collectively decides to close? 😂

I get it - semester is sacred - but maybe, just maybe, I wanted a cinnamon bun without scheduling it around a national shutdown?

🚨 New UK travel scam - and yes, it’s legal?!

Swedes heading to the UK now need an ETA to enter. But if you don’t apply through the official site, you could end up paying over 1,000 SEK instead of 200 😩

Fake websites look real and promise “fast service” but charge way more.

Konsumentverket says many people are falling for it and calling in angry.

Tip? Use Sweden Abroad for the right link and if you’ve been fooled, try contacting your card provider to possibly get a refund.

🍄 Mushroom season has officially begun!

The first chanterelles are already peeking out!

Where to look: 🌲 Spruce forests with birch 🚜 Old gravel roads & tractor tracks 🌿 Mossy ledges with dripping water

You might also spot russulas, tooth fungi, or even the royal karljohan if you’re lucky.

⚠️ But don’t risk it - only eat what you’re 100% sure of. Sweden has some seriously toxic mushrooms too.

So... who’s already planning their next forest walk? 🍃✨

Trying to manifest fluent Swedish with nothing but Young Royals, kanelbullar, and blind confidence 🇸🇪🥐

It’s a shame I’m still too much of a coward during phone calls and end up switching to English… with some people.

(Like seriously, these call centers could invest in better sound quality - immigrants are trying their best, okay?)

🎲 Göteborg finally got its own Monopoly board!
 The new edition launched aboard the Götheborg ship and features local icons like Avenyn, Slottsskogen, and Feskekörka.

But with only 40 spaces… not every neighborhood made the cut.

👀 No Högsbo, Angered, or Mölndal - yet?

💬 What place you would have added? Let’s make the ultimate local expansion pack in the comments.
