Congrats Stefan, so happy for you that you got your official Swedish citizenship!!! You have definitely become more European over the years and I'm glad you can now stay in Sweden without worries or any limits of any kind. We love our neighbor Sweden here in Norway, and now you are officially a neighbor of us as well!🤩🤩

Congratulations on becoming a Swedish and European Union citizen!

Congratulations on becoming a Swedish citizen🎉 🇸🇪💛💙

Grattis! Du passar in perfekt här.

Congrats! I moved to Borlänge in 1997, am a dual citizen as well. Been in Buffalo where I’m from (born in Buffalo 1977-moved to Sweden in 97) since 2009 as my Swedish hubby and son wanted to live here for a bit. But we are moving back when hubby retires. Wish it were sooner. I miss Sweden so much. I feel just like you about Sweden. It’s home.

Congrats man! Glad to have you here!💙💛

Grattis till medborgarskapet! Har följt dig i tre år och lärt mig mycket intressant om ditt hemland och alla kulturskillnader som finns. Dessutom förstår jag engelska mycket bättre nu efter att ha lyssnat på dig!

Best of luck mate. Swedes are brilliant.

Gratulera till att bli Svensk medborgare, du kommer att få en inbjudan till Medborgarskapsceremonier för att fira att du har blivit svensk!

Congratulations! I would LOVE to be a Swedish citizen. I used to live there many years ago, then I flew there for work weekly, for many years. I have a great job now in the US that keeps me here, but being a Swedish citizen is a dream of mine.

Congratulations Stefan! Welcome as a Swede.

Då får man säga stort grattis till medborgarskap Stefan🎉🍾🎉👏👍

Congratulations!! What a long and challenging journey. So happy for you! 🇸🇪💙

How exciting! I'm happy for you. A good friend is taking her exam today for French citizenship and I have my permanent residents card. It was lovely to hear your feelings of belonging from the beginning. I knew that I belonged in France even before I arrived. BTW, my.father was Swedish and the other side of the family came from the UK. I was the first born in America and knew that I belonged in Europe at a very early age.

This is incredible, man! Been following your journey basically since the beginning, and it's crazy to see it ending up here. Congrats!

Stort grattis till dig! Har följt dig i stort sett sedan du började dela med dig av din resa på KZfaq så det är kul att se att du rotat dig och känner dig hemma i vårt avlånga och ibland lite märkliga land. Det måste vara en enorm lättnad att ha ett Svenskt medborgarskap då det definitivt gör livet lite lättare för dig i och med att du inte behöver krångla med uppehålls- och arbetstillstånd framöver.

Grattis Stefan! Jag har lurkat på din kanal sen strax efter den startade och den här nyheten känns verkligen som att cirkeln sluts! 🎉🎉

Congrats brotha 🎉

So I've followed you almost since the very begining of your channel and I really do feel happy to see how far you've come on this journey. Stort grattis till medborgarskapet

Ett stort grattis till dig och till Sverige på samma gång - det blev storvinst för bägge! Jag har följt din kanal här i flera år och uppskattar den mycket.

Gratulerer så mye. Varme hilsener fra Norge.

Grattis fan va kul 🎉🎉 Du är en jävligt fin och ödmjukt människa så vi är glada att ha dig som en av oss 🎉❤

Congratulations Stefan! I agree with you that Sweden feels like home. I haven't been able to visit since 2003, however every time I landed at Arlanda airport it felt like a weight had left my shoulders. Welcome home! Välkommen hem!!

Congrats Stefan you are very welcome as a swedish citizen! And big congragts to 100k subs!

How exciting, congratulations Stefan! 🎉🙌🏻😊🇸🇪 I’m a Swede who was living in WA state when you first started uploading videos about Sweden. I remember I thought it was really interesting that we basically switched places, so I was intrigued to follow your journey. 😊 Since then I have seen your channel grow bigger and bigger. Thank you for all the great content you’ve created throughout the years. And once again congrats on gaining your Swedish citizenship! 🤩🤩

Wow GRATTIS! I’ve followed your journey since 2018, so this makes me a little proud😄🇸🇪

Stort GRATTIS!!! Har följt dig lite då och då sen du kom och det har varit intressant och KUL! att höra dig berätta om dig och dina erfarenheter och få glimtar av din sunda livsstil! VÄLKOMMEN, glad över att du nu är vår landsman! 🥳

Congratulations on becoming a Swedish citizen! As a native Swede, it’s been very interesting and exciting to learn what it’s like for people who grew up in other countries to share their experiences with living in Sweden and its culture. I’m looking forward to seeing future content on your channel. And again, congratulations for becoming a citizen!

Congratulations. We are happy and proud that you want to be one of us. Love from Segeltorp/Stockholm/ J

Grattis till ditt medborgarskap. Jag har följt dig från första början och det har varit riktigt kul att få se hur bra det går för dig! Lycka till med nästa äventyr! 🇸🇪🇺🇲

Grattis! 🎉 Vilken känsla att få det mejlet. 😀

Grattis! Happy to have you here, good luck on your endeavors!

Congratulations what a great journey. So happy for you!

Congrats Stefan!

Oh my goodness, congratulations Stefan!!! Having been a follower of yours since you started making videos this is so awesome to see. You're living the dream and have genuinely inspired me to do the same. I'm currently in the process of getting Argentine citizenship after being born and raised in the US and have my eyes set on Sweden (or maybe Spain) next! Keep it up!

Congratulations! I have been following your journey from the start.

Grattis 👍. Been following you time from time , and ...its good that you are a part of us now 🙂

Grattis!!! 🥳

Such amazing news Stefan, congratulations! I can’t even imagine the relief you must feel. Been following your journey for so many years now, I’m genuinely happy to see things working out for you!

Grattis Stefan! 🎉

I'm glad to be one of the early 'congratulators' here. I've followed your videos from the beginning and was wondering when this might happen. I can fully relate to your experience, albeit in a much more rural way. My family history is split nearly 50/50 to German and Swedish, yet the DNA does not lie when it says that I am about 72% Nordic, with most of that being Swedish, and only 25% German. My first trip to Sweden was in 1971 when I was 20. It took me 40 years to get back here. Three years ago I made the jump and purchased a farm three hours north of Stockholm and fifteen minutes west of E4. There was no mistake in doing this. I never got over my first trip to Sweden and it only took me 50 years to 'come home.' I have never felt as 'at home' in the US as I do here in Sweden. I look forward to this very same day for myself. I have long believed that we are born with relatives, but sometimes it take a long time to find out 'family.' The ideal is that they be one and the same, yet it is rarely the case. I've also come to believe that we may be born in a particular place, but finding our home may take a while.........it took me 70 years. I am in the process of shipping all of my tools, equipment, household things and my three Volvo Amazons over. I know I will have arrived when I drive out of the lane that leads to the 307 in one of the Amazons. Again, welcome home. To everyone reading this, may you also have the courage to take the leap of faith if it means moving to a new continent.

Congrats. :D This is only the second video I watch on your channel, but I like em and chose to subscribe. Looking forward to watch more.

Grattis Stefaan!!!🍰

MAJOR CONGRATS!!! 🎉 You are inspiring! I am a fellow American starting my immigration journey to Sweden too and I also lived in Germany when I was young! It took you only 7 years from 2017-2024 to get your dual citizenship! If you could please do some videos on the nitty gritty of the process you went through and new challenges with filing American taxes for dual citizenship, that would be tremendously helpful!

Stort grattis 👍👍, jag är riktigt glad för din skull :D

Congrats! I have been following you since your first videos (when you lived in Norrköping). It is so amazing to see how you have developed and how much you have grown in to the role of swede!

Congratulations buddy! Ive been following your trip since 2018, so glad to see this when waking up today!

Grattis!!! 🥳🍾

Congratulations Stephan! I have been following you since you moved here and I’m happy for you!

congratz! so happy for you

Congratulations Stefan! So happy for you! 😄 I remember watching your videos years ago when you first got here, amazing to follow your journey and see you truly become a Swede! Pleasure to call you one of us! ❤️

Grattis Stefan! Glad för din skull att du fått ditt medborgarskap här. Önskar att byråkratin när det gäller att jobba och flytta hit. Tar alldeles för lång tid för att få det som det är just nu.

Grattis !!! 🎉🎉🎉🇸🇪😊

Grattis Stefan. Alltid roligt att höra dina ärliga åsikter och erfarneheter

Congratulations!!!

Congrats!! 🎉🙌🏼

Grattis för tusan! :D Det känns nästan galet att följt dig ända sedan du flyttade hit, du bodde rätt nära mig så det hände att man såg dig ibland. Vilken resa! God fortsättning. :)

We're happy to have you, Stefan!

very much congratulations to you Stefan for the citizenship, god bless you brother, It's my life long dream to achieve a Swedish citizenship, and I exactly know what you mean about that so, than you very much for creating this channel as well sharing your ideas, views, & information with us.

Wow - good for you! Congrats. I've been watching this channel for awhile now, and this seems perfect for you. - My sister (on my dad's side) is Swedish and I loved Sweden & love speaking Swedish. GREAT choice for a place to live. Grattis!!

Grattulerar. Jag har förstått att det inte är helt lätt att bli svensk medborgare, så grattis! Och det är verkligen kul att se videor av dig igen!

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you! ❤

Congratulations Stefan! I understand why you feel at home here hearing this story. Didn’t know about your ancestry. You’re a good source of info on sweden and life here for potential expats wanting to move here or study here. I’m a native Swede but like watching your videos for the outside perspective and comparisons on the good and the bad aspects of living here.

Wow. Congrats och välkommen som medborgare❤

Congratulations Stefan! Very happy for you, and happy that you stuck by your desire and made it happen to become a permanent resident and then a citizen of Sweden.

Grattis! Jag har följt dig så länge nu och woooaaw, vilka steg du gjort de senaste 4-5 åren! Vi ska vara stolta över att kalla dig svensk från och med nu❤

Great info for those that are on their beginnings of this path! Gratulerar och välkommen till det stoiska folket :)

Grattis! Hoppas Sverige och svenskarna fortsätter att göra dig lycklig! ❤

Congratulations Stefan 🎉
