...............So what am I doing in Sweden? A question I asked myself continuously at an earlier stage in this adventure. And again when a friend died in England. Grief and home sickness. So sorry Phil. Shocked and stunned. And yet again when I didn't get Swedish residency because the British government would not issue a health certificate to a NEET (Not in Employment, Education or Training). I'm not early retired apparently! No health certificate, the Swedish authorities would have had no choice but to reject my application, so I fell on my own sword, and withdrew. So I remain domiciled in the UK, with frequent, long, trips to my summer house in its wonderful location. Don't you just love rules!
...So exactly where IS the advantage of being an EU citizen?
It took a while but I got there. What am I doing in Sweden? The UK government will no doubt disagree, but what I am doing is enjoying early retirement mostly in Sweden. Within the rules, I am a perpetual traveller. Thanks to my sister for her support with a UK base.
The sun is shining. There are wonderful views of Vattern thanks to the clear clean air. Back to my tranquil acre for the big spring clear up. Big beautiful motorbike to ride later. I'm not early retired apparently. NEET!
