CHRISTMAS SONGS If you don?t involuntarily sing along every time you hear All I want for Christmas is you then you need an extra large shot of Christmas spirit. Of course, in Sweden you?ll probably still hear all your favourite Christmas songs. There are also several catchy Swedish tunes we have a feeling you may like just as much. Tänd ettljus, anyone? FESTIVE MOVIES Elf, Bridget Jones, Home Alone, it?s not quite the holiday season if you can?t curl up and watch some festive movies. Preferably in a Fair Isle onesie. Luckily, you can catch all these movies and more on Viaplay here in Sweden this Christmas. And this way there won?t be any arguments with your brother over who gets control of the remote control! FRIENDS However old you are, ?going home? for Christmas always means catching up with your local friends over a glass of (insert popular yuletide tipple here). On the bright side, spending the festive season in Sweden means glÜgg (mulled wine) in abundance, which can be enjoyed with a plate of delicious pepparkakor biscuits -- it?s a moreish treat that you may end up liking just as much as your traditional holiday snacks.
