Hi All
My son is selected to do a 4 years doctorate in Lulea - any Sketchuppers from there?

Hi.
I'm not from Luleå but was born in Skellefteå not too far from it.
I now live in the southern part of Sweden where it's not as dark and cold.

Hi Pixero
Do you know how we can get accommodation for the boy? It seems to work on a point system and you must join a cue? I'll appreciate it if you can give us some pointers. In South Africa we normally just look at the adds, pay the deposit and it's sorted.
Look forward to hearing from you.

I don't have any specific info about living in Luleå but if its a study city there usually is student "dorms" where you share kitchen.
I googled: studentboende i Luleå
and got these links as a start.http://bostadsportal.se/hyresbostad/norrbotten/lulea_kommun?gclid=CMTN9p6U58QCFWGzcgod3KcAiA
http://www.xn--studentbostder-gib.nu/orter/lulea/
http://www.studentbostadsservice.se/?setlanguage=en
http://www.luleastudent.se/category/hitta-studentboende/And a short guide to Swedish:
rent = hyra
rental = hyres
available = ledig
apartment = lägenhet
room = rum
housing = bostad
map = karta
square meters = kvm (kvadratmeter)
kitchen = kökRent is in swedish kronor per month (kr/mån)
Hope this helps.

Hi Pixero
Thanks a lot - I've passed on the info to my son. No doubt he'll speak Swedish by year end - we kinda can get the gist if the language since a lot of words are Germanic in origin.
All the best
Andre
