Frida Karlsson’s beautiful words after Maja Dahlqvist’s shock announcement – now say what every Swede wants to hear: “I think that…”

Maja Dahlqvist moves to Norway.
Then Frida Karlsson rejoices.
– It can be a real kick, says Karlsson to SVT.

For the past ten years, Maja Dahlqvist has lived in Falun, near Lugnet’s ski stadium. But in recent summers, Dahlqvist has been a lot in Trondheim, where there are good training opportunities. Last week it was announced that Dahlqvist will soon leave Sweden.

Moving to Norway

Together with her boyfriend Kevin Bolger, Dahlqvist is moving permanently to Trondheim in Norway, where the World Ski Championships will be decided next winter. Dahlqvist tells us that there is a roller ski track in the summer, which later, when the snow comes, becomes a competition track during the winter.

– But it feels like it’s time for something new. When the WC is in Trondheim next year, it feels quite motivating to go there, Dahlqvist tells Aftonbladet about the move.

And there are more who rejoice over Maja Dahlqvist’s move to Norway. Frida Karlsson, who over the years has been one of Dahlqvist’s closest friends in recent years in the national team, says that she will take the opportunity to stay with Dahlqvist as often as possible, and that she has even been involved in the apartment search. And Frida Karlsson is honest that she will take every opportunity to spend time in the new apartment.

“A real kick”

She tells SVT that the plan is to visit her as often as possible.

– Yes, I was here when they were going to look at the apartment and I was very careful that you must have an extra room, so I will probably spend some time there, says Karlsson.

But for Frida Karlsson, it’s not just about hanging out with Maja Dahlqvist. Getting to ride in the WC courses as often as possible can be a successful move when the championship is decided in Trondheim next year.

– I think, above all, in terms of motivation, it can be a real kick, to learn those courses.
