So I’ve been reading this great book, My Sweet Saga. It was written by Brett Sills, an American and now officially a Swedish Freak! The book is about an American who has never been abroad, and on a last minute trip finds himself in a wild adventure in Stockholm, Sweden.
It is hilarious and a very interesting prospective of Sweden – from an untainted American’s eyes! You can see a bit of Brett Sills style in his post How I Fell in Love with Sweden.
So how do you win a copy of this book?
Simple! Do the following:
1. Like Swedish Freak’s Facebook page and then…
2. Leave a comment about your first experience in Stockholm (or how you think it will be)
or
Tweet this post and mention why you want to win. Remember to mention @SwedishFreak.
This contest will run until Thursday, May 3rd. The winner will be announced Friday, May 4th.
Lycka Till!
Hej Swedish Freaks,
I have become enchanted by the the idea of moving to and living in Sweden ever since my son spent a year there for his senior year in high school in Falun. I read everything online I could find about the country, the people and their culture. That was several years ago now and I continue to read the Local, follow many Swedish themed blogs practice a little Swedish language on line. I have even incorporated Swedish holiday customs into my families celebrations. Sadly at this time I don’t see my self visiting until I retire from work(playing the lottery with Sweden in mind). But I will visit and I am very curious to find out if my Sweden lives up to the real Sweden. What an adventure that will be.
Tack!
Great story Erik, thanks for sharing! May you get to Sweden soon!
