📢In our new episode of ‘How I Settled in West Sweden’, we meet Liz Rider, an organizational psychologist who moved from the UK to Gothenburg with her family.

In this episode, Liz highlights the importance of persistence and putting yourself out there — even if it means meeting a lot of people who aren't your people. Because that's exactly how you find them.

“ Join every club, meet every person, even if it's something that you don't particularly like or it's people that are not your people, because that's how you'll find your people.”
