Ep.4 - Mountains of tests that I conquered

Ep.6 - Summery Archaeology

夏天的尾聲，我們回顧了800公里搬家的旅程、尋找藍莓森林的過程，以及幸運找到蘋果、西洋梨樹的幸運。當然焦點還是放在Ola這個夏天的工作，在瑞典工作難找，考古的工作合約尤其得來不易，雖然這個夏天沒有獲得正式的聘僱合約，但有幸能夠參與以前學校老師的一個研究計畫，也因此開拓人脈網絡，得到秋季的一個考古工作。考古看似離我們的生活很遠，但每一個新的發現都能讓我們對以前人類的生活及文化脈絡有更近一步的認識，怎麼能不被吸引呢～ In this summery, we throwback to the summer time when we moved to Kimstad, found a neighbouring blueberry forrest, and bumped into some wild apple trees. Ola also talks about his one-month archaeological work in Aska area in Östergötland region as well as the interesting finds! Archaeology can seem a bit abstract for people who are not in the field but it's always cool to be able to get a sneak peak of how our ancestors lived!

Ep.5 - Some thoughts about CORONA

今年五月台灣疫情爆發時，我們有感而發不專業地聊了關於台灣、瑞典的防疫政策與身為一介平凡百姓的感受，若有任何問題或是想與我們討論的內容，請來信與我們聯絡，祝大家平安、健康！ You are probably tired of listening to news about corona and so am I (Winnie). But, here are some of our thoughts that we'd like to share as both Sweden and Taiwan have received a lot of attention from the world because of different reasons. Since then, a lot has changed and a lot is still changing. As usual, any questions or discussions are welcome and STAY HEALTHY!

Ep.4 - Mountains of tests that I conquered

嗨，我從考試地獄回來啦！瑞典語學校 (SFI) 要升級或是畢業都需要考過國家考試，又因為台灣的英文教育不被瑞典認可，於是我也花了一點時間上了高中英文課，終於在六月中都順利結束了。這一集我們聊聊瑞典的英文、瑞典語考試，還有未來學習、就業路徑的規劃。 We were planning to talk a little bit about corona in Taiwan and Sweden but Winnie also wanted to complain/brag about how many Swedish and English tests she had to do. So the part about corona will be in the next episode because it got too long.

Ep.3 - We got an(other) apartment! In Sweden!

我們要搬家啦！台灣的房價越看越讓人望之卻步，反觀瑞典，年輕人買房好像天經地義，甚至比租房來得簡單一些，倒是找到合適的房子有些棘手。這一集我們來聊聊瑞典租房、買房的不同方式，以及我們的競標過程與經驗。Yes we are moving! To a town that sounds a bit like a Korean town: Kimstad. In this episode, we talk about the process and experience of our apartment hunting and things that are good to know when getting a place to live in Sweden.

Ep.2 - We built an igloo without a roof during Easter!

上週日歐洲調整為夏令時間，雖然我們這兒的路邊還有大大小小的雪山，不過已經可以大致宣告春天即將來臨，這星期馬上就要迎來春季第一個長假期-復活節！這一集我們聊聊「女巫會聚集和惡魔開會」、「孩子要扮成老人去鄰居家裡要糖果」的節日。 It's almost spring and the first holiday in the season is coming up. In this episode we talk about Ola's family's traditions during Easter week and Winnie's first and only Easter holiday in Sweden. Happy Easter! Glad Påsk!
