In Sweden many teenagers engage in sports after school. Popular sports are soccer, hockey, handball, sailing, golf, tennis and many others. If you are into sports, Sweden is the country for you. It is one of the most prominent countries when it comes to hockey, tennis, golf, handball and more.
Worldwide famous artists give concerts in Sweden every year. Many festivals are organised in summer all over the country. Those summer highlights usually mean lots of music, fun activities, great food and lots of people having a great time together – cities and towns become huge party zones!
The mountains in the northern part of the country offer excellent skiing conditions in winter. In summer you can go sailing, fishing, hiking, rafting and explore nature in the most exciting ways.
