Hej Hej!
I am moving to Sweden hopefully within the year - if the MV will ever approve my application for the sambo visa! I'm learning swedish, and excited to be moving to be with the love of my life. I am a business owner, and a Pro Hair an Makeup artist from California, then moved to Portland Oregon.  I am always looking online for forums like these to meet other expats and make friends and hear their experiences.  I can't wait to move!  How long did some of you wait to be approved, it's been 6 months so far (which as I've heard, is like nothing compared to some of the wait times :( )

Hello everyone
And thank you for welcoming me
Actually i am from lebanon. I am a social worker and activist for human rights and women rights.
With my husband we have achieved the first civil marriage in lebanon as a challenge for human rights and we won the case. But in our battle religious people and political ones were against us. And now my family especially my little child are threatned to death.
So i thought of leaving lebanon to protect my son.
I have a B.A in English literature and i can work in different domains, same is my husband, he has a degree in programming and can work in different domains too.
I would like to know if this can be achieved.
My baby is 2 years old.
Do you think it is possible to move? Will we be given protecrion and allowance of stay and how?
By the way you can surf the internet for our story by our names: kholoud and nidal first civil marriage in lebanon.

Thank you in advance for reading or any kind of help

Any country will give you political asylum as soon as you enter by presenting your case. your case is cut and dry you will be accepted anywhere in the world. I wish you good luck.

Hello everybody,

My name is Michaël, I'm 27 and I'm a French PhD student working on Immunology and currently living in Toulouse (South of France). I will obtain my PhD in 2 years and I would like to perform my Post-Doc in Sweden or Norway it will depend on the field and the opportunities in each country.
I have ever been in Sweden and Norway for holidays and this was a fantastic experience. Wonderful landscapes, people are always smiling, talkative and polite, but the food .. :)
If someone is working on Imlunology, Cancer, or virology as PhD or engineer in this field and want to talk with me, it's up to you.
I'm also trying to learn Swedish for my pleasure, so if you have some nice advice or website to help me to improve my learning this would be so nice.
Hej då,
Michaël.

HI
If you managed to reach to any of the EU member states, you can apply for asylum on the basis of your life is in danger back in Libanon.
check this link: (migrationsverket.se ), this`s in case you want to come to Sweden, so you can have an idea about how is it going to be.
Good Luck

Hi my name is Aiden currently living in england but hoping to move to gothenburg soon. As much as i love the city itself, i am doing this for a girl, We have a long distance relationship, But it hurts to have to say goodbye. I am running out of options and im afraid that it may be time to call it quits. If i somehow got work in gothenburg, I would allow myself time within the city then tell her i am there. Then hopefully look for full time work and become a citizen.

Hi,

I invite you to follow this topic on this new thread:
