Sweden is one of the Scandinavian country that remain it's money currency "Swedish crown"in english meaning"krona"in Swedish that (krona)represented the Monarchy type of government. Although the country is in Europe even EU member but they choose to have the same currency,not replace "krona"to "euro". Before I move in the country I thought that every countries in Europe are using "Euro". I'm wrong!yes "euro"has a big value in my home country but it does not help because living in the country with "euro currency"is more expensive than living in other country(not using euro).
At first I find hard to understand the difference,but after few years of living here I did realize it would better to remain "krona". Swedish people are satisfied with the current currency,despite of economic crisis the country holds it and manage good. Swedish currency value is not so high unlike dollar and euro but the country's economi is stable.
I was in the other part of Europe last year summer,I had compared the price between euro and Swedish crona. In some items much cheaper,certainly in Sweden.
I cannot explain further more because I'm an ordinary tax payer "immigrant"living in the country. But I am proud,I feel that I am part of the victory. I hope that Swedish own currency must stay forever. I am not against euro but I am more favor to have an affordable cost of living that gives us chance to travel in some other places.

About Me
- Abeth
- From Cebu and landed here in Northern Europe a Nordic Country on the Scandivian Peninsula ..soon to be a Mom. Life living outside Philippines is interesting and a lot of challenge ,of course difficult because of the language.People in Sweden speak Swedish and I need to step back from the basic just to learn their language and to have a job.I created this blog for my family and friends in Philippines,easy for them to update my life here. My other reason is to keep updating my english language.
