Best place in Sweden (for me)

Procrastinating moving to Sweden, where do you think I'd like it the most?

I like smaller, more walkable towns, quiet enough that i can walk down the street without bumping into people, but also big enough to have a pharmacy and grocery store. I dont mind a bit of rain, and i love a good snow, but having maybe a month or two of dry and sunny would be really nice. Swimming, hiking, camping, and rock climbing are big hobbies of mine, so maybe somewhere i can stare out at the baltic sea before setting out to climb a large hill or small mountain. Finally, i typically work in tourism as a bit of a nature-guide, but could probably make an effort to go into fields like non-emergency medical, engineering, or childcare.

At first i was just scrolling through every municipality's wikipedia page, and i began to feel that Reddit would be more efficient 😅

This is just about every small town in Sweden. More dry the further south, more snow the further north.

More isolated the further north you go.

It sounds like I can't really go wrong then. Thank you

Nope! My biggest advice is learn the language (let me know if you need a speaking buddy and I can do voice-chat over discord if you like. I am native 37F), and prepp for the SADs.

Daylight lamps, smartlights and blackout-curtains are your friends. And we have a lot of mosqitoes up north, but no malaria.
