They can even explore the heavily forested country at their leisure thanks to the Right of Public Access (Allemansrätten).
A federal semi-presidential republic, the President is considered the head of the state and the Prime Minster the head of the government.

Sweden lies north of the Arctic Circle, west of the Baltic Sea and borders Finland and Norway. It is also connected to Denmark via a bridge-tunnel across the Oresund. It boasts the highest rate of innovation, particularly in sustainable energy, and the fastest economic growth among all other countries in the European Union.

We truly recommend International Sea and Air Shipping
“We worked with Ms. Hillary Cammer on a complex move from Fjallbacka , Sweden to Bonita Springs, FL via Seattle since early 2014.
International Sea and Air Shipping provided superb service and had the expertise to guide us through the many steps involved in International shipping and Customs.
We changed the destination from Seattle, WA after the shipment left Gothenburg, Sweden. Ms. Cammer and her Staff were up to the task to arrange for transfers and get the shipment delivered to the Bonita Springs, FL destination. The West Coast labor issues added more complexity to these transfers. The dispatcher Avi proved skilled in solving many issues to get problems resolved.
We had no damaged items and the packing, loading of the 20 FT container was handled with expertise.
The unpacking in Bonita Springs was also performed in an efficient fashion.
We truly recommend International Sea and Air Shipping of New York for international moves. “
