Liam arrived in Sweden in September 2014 and is currently studying an international baccalaureate in Västerås. Moving from Syria to Sweden has had it’s challenges for him. But, Liam is one of our star volunteers, patiently translating the best content of the Newbie Guide to Arabic! He is also one of the most energetic and generous person we have gotten to meet, as he is volunteering with a lot of other projects in Västerås.
I moved to Turkey in early 2013 because of the civil war in my home country, I lived there until my family and I got residence permit from the Swedish embassy in Istanbul in late 2014.
I like the free educational system, the country´s position of humanitarian issues, the Swedish nature and the country´s care of the environment.
Hejsan!

The two-weeks big celebration for new graduated high school students.
My second day in Sweden I went to a shopping mall in Göteborg, and there I found a small ice-cream and yogurt store with two big machines and lots of fruits, chocolates and many other things that one can add to his/her yogurt/ice-cream. I filled a small box with ice cream and I added a lot of fruits and chocolates assuming that there is a fixed price for the box whatever you fill in it.
I was shocked when they weighted my box at the casher and I ended up paying 600kr.
