Heyy!
My name is Annamaria, you can call me Anna 😉 and I am one of the digital ambassadors for Study in Sweden. I am so excited to share with you what studying in Sweden is like, my tips and tricks on how to choose the best location and programme to study, how to manage your time as a student, or how to make the most out of your university experience.
I am currently a student at the University of Skövde pursuing a Bachelor&#8217;s in Biomedical Sciences. Don&#8217;t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about my university experience or where and why you should study in Sweden. Based on what Sweden has to offer, it is in my opinion, the best choice to start your university student&#8217;s life in. Hopefully, I will be able to share with you my experience of studying and living in Sweden through the blog, so you can decide whether it would be the right path for you as well.
Outside of university, I truly love to write, read, (watch Netflix) and hang out with friends.
And that&#8217;s all about me. Now let&#8217;s read some blogs and learn more about Sweden, shall we?

My name is Annamaria and I'm from Slovakia 🇸🇰. I'm a student at University of Skövde, where I study a Bachelor's in Biomedical sciences.

Hi there!
My name is Brooke and I am honored to be one of the digital ambassadors for Study in Sweden getting to show you what it is like to live and study in Sweden. While I was applying to university in Sweden, I myself used the Study in Sweden blog and Instgram as a resource to get to know more about Sweden, how to write my application, apply for a residence permit and more! I hope that you will find my content helpful and engaging whether you are thinking about coming to Sweden or already live here.
I am very lucky and thankful to be here in Sweden as I have dreamt of living here for some time. Everyday feels like a &#8220;pinch me&#8221; moment whether I am doing simple tasks such as laundry, grocery shopping or simply walking down the street. I am currently living in Norrköping where I am studying Ethnic and Migration studies at Linköping University.
When I am not studying in the library or producing content for Study in Sweden, I like to drink coffee, second hand shop, go running, and watch documentaries. I am passionate about talking about mental health and allyship and you can look forward to seeing this kind of content from me.
Do not hesitate to get in contact with me via email if you have any questions about life and studying in Sweden! We are in this together!

My name is Brooke and I'm from the United States 🇺🇸. I'm a student at Linköping University, where I study a Master's in Ethnic and Migration Studies.

Hej, allihopa!
I’m Narmina. I was born and raised in Georgia, the country, not the state in the US. After studying in Western and then central Europe, I decided to live a LAGOM, comfortable, balanced, and supported life in northern Europe, and specifically in Sweden, of course!
So far, I have survived one Swedish winter and nothing else on earth can kill me anymore. I think the quote “What doesn’t kill you make you stronger” is said about Swedish winters. I’ve also learnt how to make Swedish chocolate balls and how to bake cinnamon buns. I’ve discovered Grönkål (green kale) which is the best remedy for Swedish winters. I became vegetarian in Sweden as the variety of plant-based food is really encouraging.
I love creating. I used to write poems when I was younger but then I realised that’s not my thing and switched to creating video content instead. I’m in the YouTube team trying to share with you everything about what I’ve observed, experienced, learnt and seen in Sweden.

My name is Narmina and I'm from Georgia 🇬🇪. I'm a student at Stockholm University, where I study a Master's in Sociology.

Sawubona.
My name is Nozinhle. Feel free to take a moment to try and pronounce that again..and again..and..again. LOL. You can call me Nozie.
I&#8217;m from the beautiful City of Kings (Bulawayo) in Zimbabwe and I am a Swedish Institute Scholarship holder currently pursuing an MSc in Robotics and Automation at the University West in Trollhättan. For me, Sweden was an obvious study choice. Besides the fact that it is well known for being a great study destination for international students, Sweden has the perfect combination of the three things that matter the most to me as a female engineering professional: innovation, sustainability, and gender equality. I thus look forward to experiencing the &#8220;Swedish Way of Life.&#8221;
When I&#8217;m not cracking formulae or playing with robots (literally), you can find me at the sports arena, the mall, or anywhere where there is food. I also love to travel and take a lot of pictures while at it. As a member of the blog team, I&#8217;m excited at having the opportunity to share my experiences with you through my blog posts. Most of my content will include scholarship application tips, academic life, traveling, and basically, all the things I get up to in order to make the most of my experience as an international student here.
Feel free to reach out with any comments or questions and I would be more than happy to assist to the best of my abilities.
Hejdå!

Hej!
I’m Tina, 21 years old and from Germany.
Having moved around the world quite a bit during my childhood, it was just the next logical step to also spend my time at university in a new country.
I moved to Sweden due to my fascination with the “Scandinavian way of life”, the beautiful landscape, the great education at university and the diverse and vibrant community in my city. 
I love to read, listen to all sorts of music, hang out with friends and I enjoy makeup/fashion and art in general. 
Other interests I spend my time on include astronomy, marine biology, interior design, and psychology, as well as being a Netflix and YouTube addict.
My talents include making a delicious Pad Thai, talking in extensive lengths about the importance of knowing your Patronus, missing the bus (they are REALLY on time in Sweden) and getting angry stares in the library because I&#8217;m watching Brooklyn99 instead of studying.
It is my pleasure to share my adventures in Sverige with you, create content for StudyInSweden and give you an insight into what life is like in one of the happiest countries in the world.
Please feel welcome to mail me, or leave me a comment if you have any questions regarding life as a bachelor student in Sweden, I can’t wait to get in touch with you! And remember to check out our YouTube. We do cool stuff on there too.

My name is Tina and I'm from Germany 🇩🇪. I'm a student at Malmö University, where I'm studying a Bachelor's in European Studies.
