" Hi. My company is moving me to Gothenburg (from the US) for one year in October. Does anyone have any advice on how to help make the transition easier? I understand moving in the fall is not the greatest time. How can I avoid getting the winter blues? Also, I am a interested in ways to meet others who have moved to the area to get your opinion on how to deal with change. I would love to correspond with anyone who would like to do the same. Thanks! "

" Hi Susan, Firstly good luck with the move. Secondly, the winter blues. If you come from northen states then you shouldn''t have to many problems moving to Gothenburg. If you really need more light you''ll find plenty of sun beds in the swimming pools and hairdressers. Be careful not to confuse homesickness with winter blues though, the ''treatment''is different. Finally I would like to tell you about the FU International Club. We meet on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 7pm at the Folkuniversitetet (by Jarntorget tram stop). There will be an hours activity, with coffe and chat afterwards. A great way to meet internationals. If you would like to meet fellow americans there is the American Women''s club, plus there are a few other clubs around. Your company might even have a club too. If you want any more information about the different clubs in Gothenburg then mail me at fu_international_club@hotmail.com and I will see what I can find out for you. Regards Julie "
