Hey, Yud,

Thanks for the welcome and the useful information!

However, you did not mention about the hospitals. Could you please tell me how they are?

Thanks again!
Ravi.

Ravi, Sweden has excellent health care, don't worry.

here is a recent week's advertisement from a large Swedish grocery chain: coop.ecbook.se/coop/konsum/?store=101610

It is in Swedish but illustrated, so you can see what cost how much.

Are these prices in Swedish krona or US dollar?

In Swedish Krona
