In Boden you’ll experience what’s called the midnight twilight or polar daylight towards the end of June. This is a sort of soft, golden light that lasts through the night.

Relocating from Tunisia to Boden is ne of the biggest steps in my life. Leaving behind a career in a different industry – and my family – wasn’t easy. From the very start, the process felt welcoming. The support from HR and the relocation team gave me the confidence to take the leap. It’s a challenge, but also a chance to be part of something that truly matters.
