> Your situation sounds tough. I have no words of wisdom or insight...
I wish I hadn't said I 'hated' living here - that was an unconsidered comment that really doesn't properly reflect how I feel. Let's say 'dislike'.
There are other places I've lived that I'd prefer to move to, but I'm happy in my job and content with my home, and have a lot of good (mostly Swedish) friends, and to stay relevant to the thread, I love outdoor life (though to balance that, as others have mentioned, allemansrätt isn't as easy or all-encompassing as one is led to believe).
I think the disillusion is a large part of my problem. And the fact I haven't seen sunshine for over 2,5 weeks...
I'm 100% in the "dislike" camp, right there with you. And the sun. And the never-ending rain and mud this time of year. (7-8 months.) Almost never snow. sigh
