"There are few things Arabella Carey Adolfsson enjoys more than going fishing near her lakeside home in Sweden during the summertime, or getting her camera out and taking photographs of the natural beauty surrounding her. She and her husband Stefan, a Swede, often take their boat out from Torpon, the island where they live, onto the waters of Lake Sommen, savoring the picturesque views of the surrounding fields, forests and cliffs."
"The couple sometimes drive to Copenhagen and then fly to Portugal, or drive to Stockholm, four hours away, where they can jump on a plane to Latvia or Hungary. And yet, nearly three years into the move, Adolfsson says that settling into life in Sweden has come at a cost she hadn't fully anticipated. She and her husband, who met and married in 2009, had long imagined splitting their time between Sweden, Mexico and California."
Arabella Carey Adolfsson moved from San Diego to Torpon, an island on Lake Sommen in Sweden, in 2022 and embraces fishing, photography, boating and the surrounding natural beauty. The location offers clean air, no traffic and four distinct seasons, though winters can be harsh. The island is small and sparsely populated and at least a half-hour drive from larger towns. The couple values easy travel to other European destinations via Copenhagen or Stockholm. They had previously tried living in southern Sweden in 2016 but returned to the United States due to homesickness. Longstanding plans to split time between Sweden, Mexico and California have encountered unforeseen challenges while settling into life in Sweden.
