About Me…
I am not sure how to describe myself but others would think of me as a silly, intelligent, globetrotting, risk-taking, caring, loving, girl. A gentleman once described me as, “very intelligent, charming, and positive.” We’ll go with that. Also, as many of the long time readers will notice, I do not disclose my name; it is for privacy reasons as well as it maintains a mystique about myself. You can always call me by sapphire and I will respond.
It seems to be well known that dating Swedish men is a total mystery to both Swedish women and foreign women. This blog is about my adventures in Sweden and the culture and chaos of dating the Swedish man. Plus, the general rantings of living in a foreign country and trying work there.
If you are interested in any of those subjects told from my ridiculous perspective, come back often. You will be entertained. Woot!
Looking for the Sagi page? It’s still around! Read here about cool stuff about being a Sagittarius.
DONATIONS: After some serious thoughts, I have decided to place a little begging sign to help offset the costs of $10 beers, $1000/month rent, and my desire to write a book based on the Swedish dating and lifestyle experience. If you would be interested in helping out in any way, please Paypal. Or maybe you know a book editor. =)

Loving your blog! I’m a Malaysian girl who met 3 gorgeous specimens of the Swedish community recently in KL, and decided to find out more about Swedish culture and men. Stumbled across your blog, and found it insightful and entertaining. Keep it going, I’ll definitely check back in regularly :D

Hi there, great blog! Insightful, quirky, and fun! :)
A small question: I have a Swedish boyfriend and I was wondering what it’s like to be in a multicultural relationship in Sweden. Especially since I’m as Indian as can be. Also, do you reckon there are a lot of Indo-Swede couples?
:)
Hi Indianbelle! Nice to know of another Swedish-Indo couple. There are not many mixed couples of this type here in Sweden. As there are only 10,000 Indians in Sweden, you can imagine the indoswede mix is low.
As for the multicultural aspect, hopefully the reason you have that swede is because he enjoys and likes Indian culture. Food, clothes, events, holidays should be enjoyed by both you and him. Likewise in Sweden, they are much more liberal than Americans or Brits and definitely Indians. So be open to more progressive ideas and beliefs.
Keep us posted and if you want write a post here about your experiences, I would love to share them!
