I still live in Gothenburg, Sweden. But in a new apartment, and in a new neighbourhood. Pictured above, the amazingly beautiful view from the bedroom/living room window. I enjoy the view even more if I look to the right, rather than straight ahead, though. Especially in the morning, as the sun rises, and at night.

Enjoy your new home. You have such a nice view (specially) to the right. Are the photos taken now? I would expect some snow in Sweden in December.

Thanks, Andrei. I took the photos a few days before I wrote the post.

As for the snow, Northern Sweden generally has snow in December. In the rest of the country it can vary a lot from year to year. In Gothenburg we got some snow earlier in November and it snowed a bit yesterday. It all melted away at once though, but I hope for more snow before December’s over!

We already have lots of snow around here (in Romania). With so much snow is gonna be a lovely Christmas, just as I remember it from childhood.
But it is rather an exception – in the last 10 years we got used to Decembers without snow, or very little.

Great to hear that you’ll get a white Christmas this year. Have a happy holiday!
We got our first big snow fall this morning.

-20 C. Wow… I haven’t experienced that cold weather since a cross-country skiing trip in Idre, Sweden, at 14.
We had about -4 C degrees today, but felt much colder because of the wind.

Some years ago I was skiing in Åre. It was -20-25C in the mountains

And the ski lifts were still open? In my experience, it’s not especially pleasant to ski in that cold weather! Anything from -4 C and up is much better.

I want to learn how to appreciate all kinds of weather though, so as long as you put enough warm clothes on, it’s probably not that bad.

Yes, it depends a lot what clothes you have on. -20C also not so bad then you know that sauna is waiting for you in chalet
