Hatkärlek for your hometown Posted by Tibor on Nov 3, 2011 in Uncategorized
Hatkärlek=Love-hate (when you both love and hate something at the same time). Do you ever feel like leaving your hometown because you are sick of it? Think again! The Swedish singer and songwriter Maia Hirasawa means that one will always return at some point. Do you agree with the song?
She is originally from Stockholm (Sthlm) and not Gothenburg (Gbg) btw.

I think it is natural for a young person to want to go out and see some of the wide world, if one has grown up in only one community. Often a persons decides that “Bort är bra men hem är best [Away is fine, but home is best.]”
George:
“Hatkärlek”is the best word that can express my feeling toward my original country.
