Absolutely, the difference is obvious between the two. I have colleagues who've moved from the South up here who think I'm crazy when I'm talking about it but I should probably mention that the main reason is that I want to try something different from the Northern European culture that I'm so used to, and I want to move somewhere that is closer to the emerging markets when it comes to economic and cultural ties, and Spain is very close to Latin America in that regard. Sweden has a growing populism because we're a very saturated market, sort of becoming like Japan, and I just want to experience something different. I'm not expecting the same social safety net or pay check, or the same culture when it comes to hierarchy and work-life balance. And if it doesn't work out and I miss Sweden too much I'll go back.
