5 HABITS I Picked Up in SWEDEN That Only Swedes Will Understand! *am I turning Swedish?*
We've talked a lot about Swedish people, their traditions and customs over the past year on this channel, but today we're going to be digging into some of those giveaway signs that someone must be Swedish! How can you tell someone is Swedish during your first conversation with them? Are there certain behaviours, activities or customs to look out for that all Swedes do? Since this is going to be my last upload for a while, I decided why not dig into some of the customs and traditions I've learned to associate with Swedes. I guess you could call it the things I myself have begun to do that confuses all my English friends!

my fav pizza has berrys, nuts, fruit XD banana, pineapple, curry, peanuts, ham
We are Irish Americans and celebrate both on Christmas Eve and Christmas, and then the 12 days of Christmas, up to Old Christmas. Lots of celebrating.
I love all of the swedish foods you mentioned. BUT i have never tried sill..as a sweeed that's insane i know. I grew up as a picky child, and it just always seemed like something i wouldn't like-.
Too fast speaking, try to slowed a little. The rest is fine.
what if you dont go and keep active lol and just want too relax all the time
A commonly overlooked thing Sweden does better is snow clearing. Sure you hear about those high taxes going to education\healthcare, but there is no such thing as a “snow day” in Sweden. Come snow, hell, or high water…you can still get around.
Im obsessed with London and planning to move there in the future
The smörgåstårta is just like an amazing sandwich that you can share with everyone. I make my own with very different fillings and ingredients. Love to have something savoury and sour. Then I like to top it with grapes which is amazing as a sweet note to it all.
My parents are European and our Christmas dinner is aleays filled with a lot of foods too 😂
Rödbetsallad/Beetroot sallad is my favourite condiment. It's easy to make (a small batch) yourself. All you need is a jar of pickled beetroot, and good mayo. (Like Hellman's). You can mix the beetroot sallad with a blender, for a smooth pink mayo/dressing. And you can use it as a base for herring sallad with hardboiled eggs...
Hi dude appreciate it your video. Where you from in uk ? How you doing in sweden it's a similar country or mush differents obs appart the darkens
Swedes like to question you like on a job interview…the best question that killed me twice was “is that all you gonna be or are you gonna aim for more with your specialty”. Im saving lives and Im fluffin happy.
Soda stream actually came out in the 70;s
1. really good culture with normal activity is the norm, not the exception (I'm much more limited now due to disability, but love to see people active) 2. everyone supports each other's caffeine addiction (honestly would be annoying if people didn't shut up about coffee/caffeine drinks like they do in the USA. Do people constantly talk about drinking coffee? Or do they simply do it?) 3. July is the holy month (reference to USA everyone taking off during holy days (sometimes with no exception which is big problem)) 3. Expect more trend to vacation throughout year, rather than all in July 4. Lack of light pollution (I feel I already lack this where I am but maybe I just don't understand) 5. Everything is queue to be in queue (which is good system overall, though doesn't make sense when there isn't a queue hence why some places with low amount of people got rid of it where I've lived, but I still see it in places with long queues and/or multiple booths in USA) thanks for sharing, I absolutely love to see #1 and is one of many things that make Sweden so attractive to me.
I'm so damn tired of foreigners who have been to Copenhagen and then make youtube videos about what they think is Denmark.............. NO, Copenhagen is not Denmark, Denmark is so much more than Copenhagen! but nobody finds out if they only travel to Copenhagen. The cost of living is also completely different, in the main country, than in Copenhagen, as is so much else. If people only visit Stockholm or Malmö, they will never find out what Sweden and the Swedes are like!
You would expect surströmmingsstuffed turkey, dancing to ABBA and drinking Coca-Cola under a Cuckoo-clock.
Whipped cream in Smörgåstårta??? Thats soooooo wrong 😝
Rydbergs är den godaste. Lidls rödbetssallad smakar äckligt.
I always want pineapple on my pizza!
"Fruit on pizza is sacrilegious" Tomatoes: Am i joke to you?
Drainnn gangggg
Grab a beer and smörgåstårta a beautiful warm day and enjoy it outside
I want to start a coffee shop I think Sweden the way to go
Swedish people are very innovative....
get a dog ...then we have something to talk about . Next time (or after 5 times )we talk about our self
think zeunerts påskmust has a bit of a sweet fruitiness to it, definitely the best julmust
Zeunerts have the best julmust by far!
Im swede, I didnt know about the Altantik thing.
Zeunerts is the best 🍻
Being patient for a “que” is so European 🙄 That’s why capitalism is the best model. If you can’t satisfy my needs I will go to someone who will dammit. And this is why America is the greatest country in existence.
In the USA there are many religious states who will not allow coffee!! mormons have never allowed it. We were taught it is a drink of evil and my insurance still asks if Im a "user" of what?? "COFFEE" omg !
Wait.. You gonna convert to islam?
In Sweden, we started with deposits on glass bottles as early as 1884.
Falukorv = sausage from Falun. Similar to the American bologna. Vasterbottenost is similar to Parmiggiano. but much better. Expensive because only produced in a small area.
Thank you !!!
I've always liked it simple when it comes to a date no pressure, plus I hate spending money unless I have too.
The younger generations are not as handy as the older one. Downspiraling.
Great video. Allemansrätten is not strictly a law but an ancient custom. Historically that all free men (and women) can go where Theo like.
Apotekarnes julmust is the best, hands down! My whole family agrees.
Filmjölk is fermented milk, so is yoghurt. Filmjölk never has added sugar, fruit or berries. Yoghurt often does. The main difference between filmjölk and yoghurt is that they have different milk bacteria (Lactobacillus) added, which makes them taste a bit different. Most yoghurts also have quite a lot of sugar added.

Nice video! Thanks! 🙋♀️🇸🇪🎶☀️
Is SFI rushed? Absolutely, as it is SVA grund. At least in my school the very first moment you show a bit of competence, which one can easily have from having previously learnt a second language since those skills are transferable, they rush you out or make you skip levels, hindering constantly the learning process and taking away any intrinsic motivation one could have to learn Swedish, because at this point, due to their authoritarian approach and not having a single say in my learning process, I just want to get the final "betyg" and forget I ever went there... This is the first time in my life I see a school treating good students so badly.
Danish have Lego Swedish have IKEA.
If you haven't tried it, eat "Rödbetssallad" with Pytti-Panna. Very tasty. No need to eat "Skivade rödbetor" when you can have this instead. Less sour, has the same appearance, and is very tasty.
Being a Brit, would you not say "I wish I had known..."in stead of what it says in the heading?
Hi Brit. hm. You say that the employer must give you three weeks hollyday in the summer,thats right but you as employed are guilty to take three weeks a row in the summer too, so that is a two way roule. That is for to guarante you get a good rest. you cant take a week now and then five times a year. And you can also save your fifth week untill next year, Now im not sure but i think you also can save up to tre weeks (three years) before you take it out.
I can also talk Hej jag heter _ _ _ _ och jag undrar om du vet vad det betyder svara på frågan om du vet vad jag skriver
Västerbottenpaj för böfvelen!
Abba is more popular outside of Sweden than in Sweden.
You forgot "Västerbottenpaj"
