Abstract

The paper presents contemporary emigration from Croatia to Sweden with an emphasis on migration networks and its presence and role in the migration process. Qualitative research was conducted with usage of semi structured interview with an emphasis on ethnography of the individual. Trough the interview with nine, mostly highly educated narrators push and pull factors which influenced migration from Croatia to Sweden are shown. Their daily experience in Sweden (job opportunities, accommodation, learning of Swedish language and spending leisure time) and migration network which made the process of emigrating to Sweden easier were presented. This paper ends with comparison of life in Sweden and Croatia and questions regarding future plans and potential permanent return to Croatia.
