Interesting enough, the winters in Sweden weren't harsher than I expected them to be. I thought they would be superrrr cold, but with the Sun out (if it ever got out), it was actually pretty do-able.
Sweden is a tall country, reaching from 55°N to 69°N, and Järfälla is around 59°N. If you go only 250-300km north from there, the winters start to get really cold, and at the northernmost point... brrr!
While the rest of the world celebrate x-mas, we spend the darkest days of the year sacrificing tobegging the sea gods to keep the Gulf Stream going, since that's what keeps our climate reasonable.

I would love to be able to travel there one day. It's on my bucket list.
