Swede want to make friends! (Espec if you too are from Scandinavia!)

I've been away from here for a couple of weeks and now all of a sudden there's a lot of Swedes here, YAAYY! It's just nice to be able to talk to someone who comes from the same country and going through the same system (healthcare, transition, norms and so on).
But anyways, nice to meet you too! Where in Sweden are you from? North, south or middel? (I'm a true southern gal haha).

Yeah, I'm trying to get to know some trans people in Sweden in order to get a better idea of what I would expect if I go through with transition. So your post is useful for me too.

I'm from Stockholm. The city that is loathed by the rest of the country.

En stor del av min anor härstammar från Skandinavien, är min far finska och irländska men min mors förfäder var svenska vikingar som efter att ha tagit den långa vägen om Europa så småningom bosatte sig i Holland och Skottland

So are you google translating this, or do you speak Swedish?

In my family we've already decided (yes, this has been a serious talk with the whole family) that IF the war comes I will go to Canada since I will probobly be captured instantly..

Wow, you really thought that through. I dunno, Putin is scary, but I still feel that an invasion out of the blue seems rather unlikely. Never hurts to be prepared, though. Maybe I'm just lulled into a false feeling of safety since I've never experienced war.
