Living in Sweden for the past 10 years, I seriously can not point any single negative things. This country is built by amazing Swedish people and you can not ask more. I am very happy and convinced and since I became a Swedish citizen I feel very proud! May God bless Sweden! Amen.
How about the postal service? It's shocking. PostNord is horrifically bad. It's like a nation of general stores back in the old west where a train would show up once a week with the mail and they'd all end up in one spot for you to pick up. It's crazy to me that they don't deliver packages to your house as a standard thing rather than some special service you pay extra for. I've sent packages to friends from the UK that take less than a day to get to Sweden, then a week or more to get to the recipients house once it hits their network.
@@TalesOfWar PostNord is actually very fast, if you send today in 99% of time receiver should get it tomorrow. I have sent of packages locally and have had any single issue. however, International packages sucks specially during covid.
@@kabulkhan5144 Most of my packages have been sent before COVID. My main complaint is they don't deliver to your home, they sent them to a drop off point where you then have to pick it up, unless you arrange a special delivery. That's just... why? It seems extremely backwards as someone from the UK where we get home deliveries every day of the week, regardless what it is. You're kind of screwed if you order something large and/or heavy then need to travel a few km just to get it, it almost negates the point of having the damn thing delivered. All of the Swedish people I know have nothing good to say about the system. They prefered it when it was actually delivered to the address and not a drop off point. One of my friends works at a Coop where they're a drop off point and he tells me how poorly organised PostNord are and how often they've had packages arrive damaged, which the customer then blames them for.
Hej, Sverige!! Hälsningar från TEXAS! I am a Swedish American/TEXAN! I have lived in Sweden and also in Germany (Hallo, Deutschland). Unlike many Americans, Swedes are generally not loud, boisterous and call attention to themselves in public. It's crass, crude and rude. It's low class. Swedes won't tell you that, but I will. Swedes/Scandinavians are much too polite, modest and classy. Swedes are definitely not loudmouth people. I am very proud of my Swedish/Scandinavian/European heritage! Alla lyckönskningar till det svenska folket. Din vän i Texas. Take care, Y'ALL!!!
Texas Son Texas och Svenska, two things that almost never mix Jag talar Svenska too (I'm learning Swedish too, I can say a few complete sentences but I'm hoping to expand that)
It is worth noting that there are neither northern light or midnight sun in places like Stockholm, Gothenburg, Oslo or Bergen. For that you need to go further north.
Well remember hes not from Alaska. And even though its not midnight sun when my mum was in Budapest a June she asked the waiter if its going to rain. The waiter looked strangely at her and said, no the sun is going down.
Very informative! I'm a swede and i've lived abroad, but this is a perfect way to see how different perspectives view different cultures. I usually say swedish people are coconuts: hard on the outside (hard to get to know/understand) but soft on the inside (easy to work with once you know them) Keep on keeping on!
Here's a thing that might shock you, it's actually uncommon for Americans to keep their shoes on indoors. I don't know if you got this idea from a movie or something but I wouldn't blame you. In California (where it's really hot) carpets aren't common because they don't have to deal with cold climates. I'm in Minnesota and every house I walk into is like 90% carpet. I wouldn't want to get their ( or my ) floors dirty so I HAVE to take my shoes off.
I'm swedish and I don't see it as a stereotype. It's not like people go to the store nude but as he said in the clip, when bathing in the summer or going to the sauna it's not uncommon to do that nude. And Americans sometimes mean nude when you go in your underwear or just a guy walking topless in the summer. So the word can be taken differently also.
As a swede, I really like my country, but I actually miss the social parts that other countries have, like being able to talk to strangers like on the bus. I always gets really happy when strangers starts to talk to me...
if you said :" you can't shop on Sundays in Sweden some years back" That was indeed a shock for me as well.... because "shop on Sundays " is a very common things in most of countries.
Emma Hagström. We can shop EVERY Sunday in America. The Blue Laws were lifted back in the early 80s and now every Store is open in America. Would love to visit every Country Worldwide! Sweden sounds as awesome as Santo Domingo and Jamaica! Those two are on my Bucket List most definite!
I got here by a freaking accident! Well this was about my home-country explained by imbeciles not even been there thinking it 's some kind of place were people are naked all the time and rape themselves all the time. I didn't get it.
Yeah, italians do it better... They are the best at: - Harassing the local girls; - Never respecting lines; - Never even think about trying local, typical food: they search for italian restaurants everywhere they go, and they criticize the food all the time (...you know, anyone in the world is a better cook than 'mamma' or 'nonna' :-( ).
Hi, I live in Gotheburg, Sweden and something that usually shocks people is that you're allowed to go in thr forest and hunt mushrooms, blueberries or anything else. And you are allowed to go around in the woods etc. if you want to! ( This is called "Allemansrätt" in Sweden)
I'm from Sweden and most of the facts are very true. Just wanted to add something about the nature: You don't have to go very far from the cities to experience the beautiful nature! Within 30 minutes from Stockholm city with public transportation you can have a great nature experience. So no need to book a wilderness trip hours away from the cities unless you're really into that kind of stuff. If you just want to have a look at the beautiful Swedish nature, maybe take a swim in a lake and do some hiking, then you could easily have your base camp at a hotel in Stockholm city. Pretty sure the same goes for Malmö or Gothenburg. But do come in the spring or summer, that's when it's really beautiful! Winter time is quite dull actually. :-)
I guess Mark talking in this video has explored Sweden along with the world. Mark is a great talker. But he knows with the global travelling he has done.
hi, I'm visiting sweden this december. are there any notable places on the outskirts i can visit using public transport? or is the snow too much to enjoy anything? TIA
1. Swedish aren’t good club dancers 2. The tap water is amazing 3. The Swedish pay the highest taxes in the world 4. Gun rights are not protected by the constitution 5. Swedes don’t complain about taxes 6. Stockholm is the quietest Capital in Europe 7. Free college 8. Highest PhD per capita in the world 9. Swedish are always polite to tourists 10. Beautiful candy stores, mostly Swedish brands
Point 5 u yes some sweds actually do complain about the taxes here in Sweden. Some times we even wonder where does all this money go because we don't notice differences in what the politician has promised. But if there where notebal differences and the tax system was properly organised then there wouldn't be anything to complain about just telling you this since you said we don't complain about the taxes
#4: ...they aren't for most countries in the world, I would hope. Certainly not for European countries. And (most) Europeans couldn't be happier about this :-).
From a swedish perspectve. When I was in the US I thought the service was bad. Because the store owners came up to me talking to me and didn't let me do my buisness. I came to your store to shop, not to talk and get asslicked. And well.. when someone follows you around a store like that, you feel like they think you are a thief.
+KORNCROW IKR!? If your swede: Så himla irriterande!!! Alltså, när man ska berätta utomlands var man är ifrån och man ba' (Exemplet från Keyyo): Person 1:Where are you from? Person 2: Have you Heard of Sweden? Person 1: Switzerland? 2: No, Sweden 1: You mean Switzerland? 2: No, up North you know... 1: Aaaah! So your from Switzerland! Alltså arhhh!! xD
Plural form my man..countries. Not "countrys". Just like strawberry, you don't say strawberrys, do ya? Words that end with a "y" get the "ies" ending in plural. "Cities", "berries", "pennies" etc. (:
As a Swede, I love hearing what other people think of us and our culture, it's very interesting! And these things are true, but the nude thing to a certain point.
***** det är och har inte varit ett krig på skit länge. det är mycket osäkrare i andra länder pga att typ i usa så får man köpa pistol och det är så många som bor där.
*****" Nej. Såg du vat jag skrev? VI har har högst procent våldtäckter av hela europa. nr 2 av hela världen.." OM man är helt jävla hjärndöd och inte fattar att man inte kan jämföra på det sättet såklart. Men, det får stå för dig att du saknar grundläggande slutledningsförmåga. Förklarade ju detta höge upp men uppenbarligen har du någon form av inlärningskada dessutom..
***** Att om du ska göra en jämförelse mellan olika lander måste du applicera SAMMA lagar på alla länderna. Exempelvis: 90% av våldtäkterna I Sverige sker inom familjen, DVS mannen som mot fruns vilja har sex med henne. I sverige är det våldtäkt, I de flesta av världens länder är det fullt lagligt. Det du gjort är att helt enkelt bara se hur manga som är dömda för våldtäkt I respektive land, utan att ta I hänsyn att lagarna ser kraftigt annorlunda ut länder emellan.
Sure, you had most of it right. (I am a Swede). We don't like to interact with strangers, and we are quite shy in difference from Americans and other countries. Go up to a Swede, 9 out of 11 will say they practice some kind of sport or go to the gym, that is a fact. One thing though, no we don't go nude.
I think it depends on where you areand where you come from. I mean, It hasnt been rare to see people skinny dipping or topless sunbathing in the summer. All my life that has seemed normal to me, but for some cultures that seems a bit frivolous.
I do not find these differences strange at all. I live in Canada and the closer you are to the Arctic Circle the longer the darkness or sunlight hours will be according to the seasons. Liquor sales being restricted (has until very recently) been closely restricted in Canada. Feeling safe here in Canada has always been the norm. So are prices being very expensive, as compared to other countries in the Case of Canada as compared to prices in the USA. Beer & Liquor in Canada )alcohol content) are much stronger are much strnger in Canada vs the USA.
I visit my son in Sweden regularly and don’t agree with most of this. Systembolaget is great. Wish we had it in uk. Clean air and lots of lakes and trees. Wonderful.
Sweden does actually have plus-size men and women and everyone isn't looking gorgeous and most Swedish people are not blonde, like me for example, I'm 100% Swedish but I'm brunette with brown eyes. There is also very many different kinds of people, some people can be quite noisy without being drunk, but it also depends in where in Sweden you live.
This is gold! Thank you for bringing up whats good about Sweden :D Today as a swede we are usually bombarded with everything bad about it. Its nice to see a happy guy with a sense of humor telling us it really isn't that bad :D Oh, and if you want to feel really secure, go to Tokyo! Me and my wife (both Swedish, for generations) went there and were utterly shocked! You really dont have to even care about thiefs! Japan is like Sweden but on steroids, very quiet and polite steroids ^^
Now I know where I get my quietness from and people have to get to know me before I open up. I am reserved but love festivals. I don't like for buses and trains to be loud. It sounds like an awesome place. My ancestors came from there. I am Scandinavian along with other things. You make it sound so awesome. Wish I would have already visited.
It's actually prohibited to be out and about naked or just in your underwear in Sweden. There are special beaches and bath houses for naturists. Thank you for all those kind words. I was born and raised in Gothenburg :) Välkommen tillbaka till Sverige!
I have lived in Sweden for over 40 years, and the existance of Systembolaget and the insanely high taxes on alcohol both continue to shock me every time I accidentally think about it.
Being from the UK where you can buy practically any alcohol you want from a petrol station or corner shop it boggles my mind too. It's kind of crazy going into supermarkets and seeing very low volume "alcohol". Maybe this is why there's soooooo many more flavours of pop/soda there to make up the shelf space? haha! It's also crazy expensive for the stuff in bars and restaurants, though having paid for the stuff in London before it's not that much of a shock.
Sure, outside the ghettoes Sweden is overall a safe country - but those ghettoes and gang presence are spreading out throughout the country. Some areas, like Rinkeby (Stockholm suburb), Rosengård (Malmö) or Biskopsgården (Göteborg)... you don't want to stick around without at least one local you know very well. Even the cops have to back off at times in those areas due to aggressive behavior from people.
"Marky Mark" Markus Gaming/LurkingFan4 Most probably - and it hasn't gotten any better either. Remember South Central in Los Angeles in the 1980s - early 1990s? That's pretty much where Rosengård is today. :/
Living in beautiful Sweden for 1,5 year now and it is just fantastic, of course some things are different like system bolaget and Swedish are reserved (but very friendly) but for me i will never go back to the Netherlands .... oh and the swedish woman are awesome 😊
i'm sorry but i really can not enjoy this video cause it praises sweden from ground to heaven. probaply because i am Finnish and we are jealous of the Swedes. Do not get me wrong , i love Sweden but my Finnishnes is now showing.
things that surprised me in Sweden are: Ducks and geese are EVERYWHERE XD. How much they like licorice. They even have salty licorice, they call it salmiak, they even have licorice milkshake eeeeewwww. The amount of lilac, they are everywhere ( like the geese) and it's fantastic ! yes, it's super quiet. I've been living in a French city as big as Malmö for 12 years, and i couldn't believe they were more or less big. Rouen was so noisy, Malmö so quiet. This was so relaxing.
I'm a Dane, and as Denmark is Best friend with sweden i have to support my mates. Yes there is rape in Sweden..BUT SO ARE THERE IN USA! So i dont Think you guys should talk about that;) Yes People's are quiet, because they dont just scream "HEY YOU IN THE BACK YOU ARE HOT!" And dude, not all places in Sweden you go OUT nuked, so you..Arghhh you are litteraly pissing Me off.. - Loves to Sweden from Denmark
Are you only writing this comment and saying that denmarks are friends with swedes cuz denmarks want to maybe get a hill or something at least. I love to piss people off eith stereotypes :D
Midnightsun ... then you have to go up to northern sweden to see. yes it is brighter in the south. but real midnight sun is up in northern Sweden, bright around the clock in summer but almost dark all the time in winter
I have been in Malmö in September. I little bit shocked about the prices with my hungarian wage :D The other big thing that is clean, not just compared to my city, Budapest, but even to Hamburg. My city is full of trash, and dog poo everywhere, but in Malmö i don't remember that i saw any dog poo :D, and of course you can find some trash in Malmö too, but only in the touristy parts, in other places it is just clean. In Budapest you can find trash everywhere, independently from the tourists. And of course, everybody speaks english.
I took the SJ train from Copenhagen to Stockholm and back multiple times. Swedes aren't definitely always quiet on public transport, not even on SL lol.
You're too nice. The subway in Stockholm is getting worst and worst. Some of the lines, not all but they can be full off beggers, rapping kids yelling teenagers who play music from their phone speakers. Ugh. The Sweden you love might no longer exist at all in a few decades. I'm not trying to shit on people from other countries but stuff don't always work out here and people get into arguments because of politics and background. We're way too welcoming and our leading parties have no idea what they are doing or what everyone else wants. Still compared to the US, yeah it's pretty damn safe. Who knows how long it will last tho.
Kitty Cat Casy// Kitty Cat Clara No, not really. I'm sorry. We have trees, more tress, forest. Then even more trees. Then we have a few big cities as well as boring country holes not really worth mentioning. Unless they have some historic purposes and landmarks.All people do in smaller towns is complaining over how Stockholm has everything and that things are unfair. Just check out every Facebook page over an event, convention or store. Yet when they visit Stockholm they complain over how stressed we are just city people complain over how nothing goes on everywhere else. Humans are spoiled little shits. Yeah.
+Pippi Långstrump They probably have two free days, other days in the week. Since you get paid more when working during the weekend, in most professions, most people don't complain.
+Ikajo well I guess I blame it on the cultural differences. People do not get paid more where i am from. It is actually almost sacred having your weekend off
Pippi Långstrump Sweden is a very secular country so most people are not overly concerned. But in reality the stores are not open that long on Sundays, four hours between 12 and 16. Only the big supermarkets have longer opening hours. So it is not like you have a lot of time to do any shopping anyway. It is more like a lot of people work during the week and if they want to do any shopping you have to do it in the weekend.
Titanic04141912 I was talking about the employees... not the store itself. And depending on the store it might be closed certain days. Especially around holidays.
@2.31 you could tell us what hour of the day this picture was taken, because it doesn't look that much different than 17.30 during the winter in my country and I'm in southern europe :p
@@Mauro0 Hold up, how'd I miss that, I have lived in Sweden my entire life, was born here to Swedish parents, and I have never seen a woman sunbathe topless.
+IMissULoveli Yeah, go ahead and show me any numbers that support that, because 90% of grown swedes drinks alcohol, and we drink 1 liter more on average per year than norway, and about the same as america and canada.. Systembolaget is communistic bullshit. Government has no rights to limit our access to alcohol and disguise it as a "health matter"
Lol system bolaget has ads here in Sweden where they say that they have smaller price tags and higher prices to not make as many people drink and make it safer
nr 7 is so fake!! why does everyone think it's easy to find a naked guy or naked girl in Sweden, i can tell you if you only moving to Sweden see some nudity i can tell you are going to be disappointed, we don't walk around naked...
+Piktor99 Can confirm, I´ve lived here my whole life and I haven´t seen much public display of nudity, not even at beaches. More so abroad though like in Italy or similar. So your gonna be dissapointed.
+Piktor99 when I moved into a city from the countryside I kind of noticed people here do have neighbours. I still go around in undies in my own home, but I'm using the blinds in the windows more frequently. And if your at some secluded island taking a dip with your m8's, why would you need clothes? when noone is around anyway
Hum.. there are lots of 11 year old boys in the women's changing room at the pool. I'm a teacher, and it can be really emBAREssing if I run into a student.
The queues aren’t close to that. We can stand quite far apart and if someone wants to get in there they normally ask if we are a group and if they just walk in we tel them “sorry we are a group, she just needed to talk to someone on the phone” or something like that.
+Meera Khan As a tourist I bet you like Sweden. As me, born and raised here, there are some stupid things going on all the time. The things a tourist really dont notice. But as for me, I love Sweden! I love living here and my plan is to stay here but trying out a few new places. I just couldnt care less about the bad things going on from time to time. I cant care about something too much in hope of changing it to the better if it isnt possible. Best tip for tourists and actually swedes in general, come here/live here and just dont care! Youre welcome back anytime :D
I am sorry, where the hell do you find nude people? nudity is NOT normal in Sweden, never seen a place where its normal here and never heard of it. And I dont really feel like there is that many attractive good looking people in Sweden, yes maybe in Stockholm since there is really expensive places there but everywhere else, nah, not that many, and do we really go crazy at midsommar? havent really ever been so much in it since its boring and silly, even for me...
Kill Russians Huh? I just get annoyed by all the trolls and racists spreading lies about Sweden. Why would I get payed for it? That's what you should suspect the people I'm replying to of.
+Alexander Gunnarsson I think all of those teenage girls that were molested and raped by "asylum seekers" at the music festival in Stockholm disagree with you. www.spectator.co.uk/2016/01/its-not-only-germany-that-covers-up-mass-sex-attacks-by-migrant-men-swedens-record-is-shameful/ www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jan/11/swedish-police-accused-cover-up-sex-attacks-refugees-festival
The sun sets in most of Sweden. At midsummer the sun is up for 18 hours in Gothenburg and 18,5 hours in Stockholm. You need to be north of the arctic circle for the sun to be up for 24 hours.
If u are in the north part of Sweden, in the mittle of summer or winter u may be seeing a hole day were the sun doesnt go down or when the sun doesnt go up
uuugh... the 6th shock... You kinda shock me too. And I'm Swedish. Swedish people don't generally look "better" than anywhere else, unless you prefer blond hair. I believe many Swedens to be "healthy". We have very good living conditions, and every social media nag us all the time about eating healthy food (annoying as hell). But saying that Swedish people look good... If you look after people that look good then you'll see them. You won't see me and the other "uglies" when you're manhunting. But we are actually Swedish people too! Even though we might not have long slim legs, good fashion sense and blond hair. You could be Swedish. As long as you say "Köttbullar" then no one here would suspect that you were anything else. Another thing. I'm not friendly. I'm open and nice in general, but don't think you'll come anywhere near my personal space. Swedish people are no more than that, people. We're human too. Not some amazing fantasy, viking, nude, blond, long-legged, polar bear wrestling, "actually nice when you get to know them" people. Just normal humans, living in Sweden. If you want to see the sweat smelling, bad tempered, bad looking people, well... you won't see me. I'm all locked up in my house. But that doesn't mean that I'm not here.
for a dane it's weird That the swedish People Are so Open and freindly. Because we Are so shy in denmark, we Are never saying "hej" to People we dont know. And the swedish People Are so Nice, in denmark we Are like "hand me the salt" but in sweden the a more Likely to saying "please hand me the salt".

Det har jag ._.

Det är inga fucking nakna personer det ör fan olagligt haha

Mer avskilda stränder, och vissa solar näck på sin balkong
I live in sweden and I have never had someone walk in front of me in a line unless they where Italian.
Ok det kan vara sant för jag bor i Leksand och ja eee det bor inte särskilt många här
AinP nice. Jag bor ganska nära
AinP haha leksing, Rättvik är bättre ;)
Nu blev alla Italienare sura
Yeah, italians do it better... They are the best at:
- Harassing the local girls;
- Never respecting lines;
- Never even think about trying local, typical food: they search for italian restaurants everywhere they go, and they criticize the food all the time (...you know, anyone in the world is a better cook than 'mamma' or 'nonna' :-( ).
Wuuut? I'm 18 and I have never seen anyone randomly walking around naked, statues are literally the only nakedness I have seen
+cat intensifies it only happens on beaches
+Jack Eriksson some beaches. altough its totaly fine for women to go topless at ever beach
Bahar Simon i know, i live in sweden lol
Yeah I live in Sweden too, although I live on the countryside so I guess that could be part of the reason too
+cat intensifies I think you need to come to Norrland.

Hi, I live in Gotheburg, Sweden and something that usually shocks people is that you're allowed to go in thr forest and hunt mushrooms, blueberries or anything else. And you are allowed to go around in the woods etc. if you want to! ( This is called "Allemansrätt" in Sweden)
Yes! As long as you don't break anything that's growing!
Is it true everyone in Gothenburg is named, Glen?
MAC VENA no
No, they are named Glenn
Yes everyone is named Glen
Men, women, children just everybody! All Glenn! Alla heter Glenn i Göteborg! ;3 Oooof course!
Well my name is Johan, and I am from Majorna (A part of Gothenburg.).
I'm from Sweden and most of the facts are very true. Just wanted to add something about the nature: You don't have to go very far from the cities to experience the beautiful nature! Within 30 minutes from Stockholm city with public transportation you can have a great nature experience. So no need to book a wilderness trip hours away from the cities unless you're really into that kind of stuff. If you just want to have a look at the beautiful Swedish nature, maybe take a swim in a lake and do some hiking, then you could easily have your base camp at a hotel in Stockholm city. Pretty sure the same goes for Malmö or Gothenburg. But do come in the spring or summer, that's when it's really beautiful! Winter time is quite dull actually. :-)
I guess Mark talking in this video has explored Sweden along with the world. Mark is a great talker. But he knows with the global travelling he has done.
hi, I'm visiting sweden this december.
are there any notable places on the outskirts i can visit using public transport? or is the snow too much to enjoy anything?
TIA
^we are planning a trip to Sweden. Gramma bringing the whole family of 20. Should we come in December, June or August? Just in the planning stages.
@@emilyhabben2799 I'd say June, definitely.
i like how he says system bolaget like sitmen bolgaget
Dr.akula lundberg sistäm blåuget
it sounded like he said system blowget
1. Swedish aren’t good club dancers
2. The tap water is amazing
3. The Swedish pay the highest taxes in the world
4. Gun rights are not protected by the constitution
5. Swedes don’t complain about taxes
6. Stockholm is the quietest Capital in Europe
7. Free college
8. Highest PhD per capita in the world
9. Swedish are always polite to tourists
10. Beautiful candy stores, mostly Swedish brands
Point 5 u yes some sweds actually do complain about the taxes here in Sweden. Some times we even wonder where does all this money go because we don't notice differences in what the politician has promised. But if there where notebal differences and the tax system was properly organised then there wouldn't be anything to complain about just telling you this since you said we don't complain about the taxes
#4: ...they aren't for most countries in the world, I would hope. Certainly not for European countries. And (most) Europeans couldn't be happier about this :-).
Mine Minecrafft Wut?
@@mineminecrafft5833 its definitely true that some swedes complain about taxes idk where he got that they dont at all
Edgar Arenas - Belgium has the highest taxes, germany in second and denmark in third..
Sweden isnt even i top 10 according yo worldatlas.
From a swedish perspectve.
When I was in the US I thought the service was bad. Because the store owners came up to me talking to me and didn't let me do my buisness.
I came to your store to shop, not to talk and get asslicked.
And well.. when someone follows you around a store like that, you feel like they think you are a thief.
Nr 11. Sweden is not Switzerland. they are two different countrys.
+KORNCROW but we could merge :) Swedezerland 2020 go
that would be a good relationship. :)

+KORNCROW IKR!? If your swede: Så himla irriterande!!! Alltså, när man ska berätta utomlands var man är ifrån och man ba' (Exemplet från Keyyo): Person 1:Where are you from? Person 2: Have you Heard of Sweden? Person 1: Switzerland? 2: No, Sweden 1: You mean Switzerland? 2: No, up North you know... 1: Aaaah! So your from Switzerland! Alltså arhhh!! xD
Kitty Cat Casy// Kitty Cat Clara lol. you made my day :D
Plural form my man..countries. Not "countrys". Just like strawberry, you don't say strawberrys, do ya?
Words that end with a "y" get the "ies" ending in plural. "Cities", "berries", "pennies" etc. (:
I'm from Sweden and I loved this : ) Fun to hear what you think about our country.

As a Swede, I love hearing what other people think of us and our culture, it's very interesting! And these things are true, but the nude thing to a certain point.

***** det är och har inte varit ett krig på skit länge. det är mycket osäkrare i andra länder pga att typ i usa så får man köpa pistol och det är så många som bor där.
ja men är det ofta det händer eller? jämfört med alla andra länder. det är jävigt säkert i sverige.. *****
***** det finns la mer saker en våldtäkter i sverige som är säkert?..
*****" Nej. Såg du vat jag skrev? VI har har högst procent våldtäckter av hela europa. nr 2 av hela världen.."
OM man är helt jävla hjärndöd och inte fattar att man inte kan jämföra på det sättet såklart. Men, det får stå för dig att du saknar grundläggande slutledningsförmåga.
Förklarade ju detta höge upp men uppenbarligen har du någon form av inlärningskada dessutom..
***** Att om du ska göra en jämförelse mellan olika lander måste du applicera SAMMA lagar på alla länderna.
Exempelvis: 90% av våldtäkterna I Sverige sker inom familjen, DVS mannen som mot fruns vilja har sex med henne. I sverige är det våldtäkt, I de flesta av världens länder är det fullt lagligt.
Det du gjort är att helt enkelt bara se hur manga som är dömda för våldtäkt I respektive land, utan att ta I hänsyn att lagarna ser kraftigt annorlunda ut länder emellan.
Sure, you had most of it right. (I am a Swede).
We don't like to interact with strangers, and we are quite shy in difference from Americans and other countries.
Go up to a Swede, 9 out of 11 will say they practice some kind of sport or go to the gym, that is a fact.
One thing though, no we don't go nude.
I'm a Swede and I became so glad when I saw this video. You show tourists the best side of Sweden.
We do NOT get naked often, that is so wrong
what!? there is nothing wrong with going or being naked
unless your reaaally reeeeaaallly fat
ULTRA NOOB didn't say that I just said that what he said was wrong
+Maja Åkerfeldt I know ^^ I just couldnt resist saying that
I think it depends on where you areand where you come from. I mean, It hasnt been rare to see people skinny dipping or topless sunbathing in the summer. All my life that has seemed normal to me, but for some cultures that seems a bit frivolous.
I do not find these differences strange at all.
I live in Canada and the closer you are to the
Arctic Circle the longer the darkness or sunlight hours
will be according to the seasons.
Liquor sales being restricted (has until very recently) been
closely restricted in Canada. Feeling safe here in Canada
has always been the norm. So are prices being very expensive,
as compared to other countries in the Case of Canada
as compared to prices in the USA.
Beer & Liquor in Canada )alcohol content) are much stronger
are much strnger in Canada vs the USA.
+Michael Friedman We love you, Canada. You keep north america a bit less weird:)
+Michael Friedman I like to think of Sweden as "Little-Canada", or "Canadas Little Brother".
+Michael Friedman Canada seems like a great country. Hopefully someday I will be able to travel there.
+"Marky Mark" Markus Gaming/LurkingFan4 Sweden is several hundred years older than Canada.
Ikajo I know, but I still like think that, I know that Sweden was founded in 1523 by Gustav Vasa.
I'm swedish and it's always dark in the winter, right now it is 15:22 and it is pitch black outside
So many crocs! Loved the food and the people are all attractive! I was there last July and it was 85 degrees the whole time! Cannot wait to go back!
I visit my son in Sweden regularly and don’t agree with most of this. Systembolaget is great. Wish we had it in uk. Clean air and lots of lakes and trees. Wonderful.
Sweden does actually have plus-size men and women and everyone isn't looking gorgeous and most Swedish people are not blonde, like me for example, I'm 100% Swedish but I'm brunette with brown eyes. There is also very many different kinds of people, some people can be quite noisy without being drunk, but it also depends in where in Sweden you live.
Johanna Persson så sant så :)
Im from sweden and i used to be blonde but know i have Brown hair
Johanna Persson go to a Walmart in Alabama at 2am and you'll understand what this guy means or look at people of Walmart on google
I herd swedish girls are often inappropriate in conversation and they like to get every1 really drunk
I am from Sweden and I'm not from Sweden
This is gold! Thank you for bringing up whats good about Sweden :D Today as a swede we are usually bombarded with everything bad about it. Its nice to see a happy guy with a sense of humor telling us it really isn't that bad :D
Oh, and if you want to feel really secure, go to Tokyo! Me and my wife (both Swedish, for generations) went there and were utterly shocked! You really dont have to even care about thiefs!
Japan is like Sweden but on steroids, very quiet and polite steroids ^^
Now I know where I get my quietness from and people have to get to know me before I open up. I am reserved but love festivals. I don't like for buses and trains to be loud. It sounds like an awesome place. My ancestors came from there. I am Scandinavian along with other things. You make it sound so awesome. Wish I would have already visited.
It's actually prohibited to be out and about naked or just in your underwear in Sweden. There are special beaches and bath houses for naturists.
Thank you for all those kind words. I was born and raised in Gothenburg :)
Välkommen tillbaka till Sverige!
Är jag den enda svensken som skrattade när han sa: Systembloeget?
Samma här
Jag är inte svensk men jag skrattade också :D
Nope
+Julius Fostvedt Uppenbarligen inte, dumjävel. :p
+International Hahahaha
I have lived in Sweden for over 40 years, and the existance of Systembolaget and the insanely high taxes on alcohol both continue to shock me every time I accidentally think about it.
Being from the UK where you can buy practically any alcohol you want from a petrol station or corner shop it boggles my mind too. It's kind of crazy going into supermarkets and seeing very low volume "alcohol". Maybe this is why there's soooooo many more flavours of pop/soda there to make up the shelf space? haha! It's also crazy expensive for the stuff in bars and restaurants, though having paid for the stuff in London before it's not that much of a shock.
Mark, your "bon vivant" enthousiasm is infectious! Thanks for the fun and very useful videos.
Aw thank you
Yep. Good looking ;) all the best on your travels my friend. Have a max burger for me freaking loved their sauce.
+NerdPowerActivate Ikr! :D
I love watching these vids and I'm swedish haha. But it makes me appreciate the country in another way :)

Thank you ;)
Sure, outside the ghettoes Sweden is overall a safe country - but those ghettoes and gang presence are spreading out throughout the country. Some areas, like Rinkeby (Stockholm suburb), Rosengård (Malmö) or Biskopsgården (Göteborg)... you don't want to stick around without at least one local you know very well. Even the cops have to back off at times in those areas due to aggressive behavior from people.
+skrivbok that is why I put that note about not going to some neighborhoods and to ask the hotel to make sure all is OK.

Yeah, ok, I hear you. Jag misstänker att du då är svensk, eller i alla fall har någon form av anknytning till Sverige, då? :)
+skrivbok Zlatan grew up in Rosengård, right?
I think I heard about how he lived very poor there.

Most probably - and it hasn't gotten any better either. Remember South Central in Los Angeles in the 1980s - early 1990s? That's pretty much where Rosengård is today. :/

Listen all that matters is the inside not the outside, I mean my best isn't that handsome and he got a girlfriend last week :)
things that surprised me in Sweden are: Ducks and geese are EVERYWHERE XD.
How much they like licorice. They even have salty licorice, they call it salmiak, they even have licorice milkshake eeeeewwww.
The amount of lilac, they are everywhere ( like the geese) and it's fantastic !
yes, it's super quiet. I've been living in a French city as big as Malmö for 12 years, and i couldn't believe they were more or less big. Rouen was so noisy, Malmö so quiet. This was so relaxing.
Now the real question.. should I go to Sweden ?

And dude, not all places in Sweden you go OUT nuked, so you..Arghhh you are litteraly pissing Me off..
- Loves to Sweden from Denmark
SsuperA Thank god people don't go out with nukes! Sounds VERY unsafe =)
Are you only writing this comment and saying that denmarks are friends with swedes cuz denmarks want to maybe get a hill or something at least. I love to piss people off eith stereotypes :D
SsuperA when did we got best friend with Denmark ugh
SsuperA nordic doesn't hate eachothers we like making jokes about eachothers. nordic power!
There is rape in Sweden, but the typical rapists are NOT Swedes.
Midnightsun ... then you have to go up to northern sweden to see. yes it is brighter in the south. but real midnight sun is up in northern Sweden, bright around the clock in summer but almost dark all the time in winter
I have been in Malmö in September. I little bit shocked about the prices with my hungarian wage :D The other big thing that is clean, not just compared to my city, Budapest, but even to Hamburg. My city is full of trash, and dog poo everywhere, but in Malmö i don't remember that i saw any dog poo :D, and of course you can find some trash in Malmö too, but only in the touristy parts, in other places it is just clean. In Budapest you can find trash everywhere, independently from the tourists. And of course, everybody speaks english.
Dániel Ványi malmö is a pretty "bad" city in sweden. High crime rate etc

Of course! We dont want dirty floors and carpets!
Love the way you pronounce System Bolaget "System Bouwlawget"
I took the SJ train from Copenhagen to Stockholm and back multiple times. Swedes aren't definitely always quiet on public transport, not even on SL lol.
im a swede. Taking a bath naked is not somthing you see often in sweden. sure, sometimes we do but wtf who would bath naked in public.
You're too nice. The subway in Stockholm is getting worst and worst. Some of the lines, not all but they can be full off beggers, rapping kids yelling teenagers who play music from their phone speakers. Ugh. The Sweden you love might no longer exist at all in a few decades. I'm not trying to shit on people from other countries but stuff don't always work out here and people get into arguments because of politics and background. We're way too welcoming and our leading parties have no idea what they are doing or what everyone else wants. Still compared to the US, yeah it's pretty damn safe. Who knows how long it will last tho.
+TalesOfGamerz One of the better explanations Ive read about sweden in the youtube comments. But for now, as you said. Its pretty damn safe, haha :D
+TalesOfGamerz Sweden is so mush more then Stockholm.... :o
Kitty Cat Casy// Kitty Cat Clara
No, not really. I'm sorry. We have trees, more tress, forest. Then even more trees. Then we have a few big cities as well as boring country holes not really worth mentioning. Unless they have some historic purposes and landmarks.All people do in smaller towns is complaining over how Stockholm has everything and that things are unfair. Just check out every Facebook page over an event, convention or store. Yet when they visit Stockholm they complain over how stressed we are just city people complain over how nothing goes on everywhere else. Humans are spoiled little shits. Yeah.
have you ever been in sweden? its pretty quiet compared to other countrys
+TalesOfGamerz i live in a small ''country hole'' and i dont give a fuck abowt Stockholm.
Why are open stores on sundays so important? The staff has to have one day free. Consume another day
+Pippi Långstrump They probably have two free days, other days in the week. Since you get paid more when working during the weekend, in most professions, most people don't complain.
+Ikajo well I guess I blame it on the cultural differences. People do not get paid more where i am from. It is actually almost sacred having your weekend off
Pippi Långstrump Sweden is a very secular country so most people are not overly concerned. But in reality the stores are not open that long on Sundays, four hours between 12 and 16. Only the big supermarkets have longer opening hours. So it is not like you have a lot of time to do any shopping anyway. It is more like a lot of people work during the week and if they want to do any shopping you have to do it in the weekend.
+Ikajo I'm swedish and the stores is open every day, even on christmas eve and new years eve. Wr never have one day when every store is closed.
Titanic04141912 I was talking about the employees... not the store itself. And depending on the store it might be closed certain days. Especially around holidays.
@2.31 you could tell us what hour of the day this picture was taken, because it doesn't look that much different than 17.30 during the winter in my country and I'm in southern europe :p
Sweden is really expensive for Swedes as well, so I imagine it's even more expensive for tourists haha

And if your at some secluded island taking a dip with your m8's, why would you need clothes? when noone is around anyway
The subway is one of the noisiest places during rush hour and weekends. Most gangs talk loudly which could be exasperating to a point.

The queues aren’t close to that. We can stand quite far apart and if someone wants to get in there they normally ask if we are a group and if they just walk in we tel them “sorry we are a group, she just needed to talk to someone on the phone” or something like that.
Some of these are totally wrong.

I love living here and my plan is to stay here but trying out a few new places. I just couldnt care less about the bad things going on from time to time. I cant care about something too much in hope of changing it to the better if it isnt possible.
Best tip for tourists and actually swedes in general,
come here/live here and just dont care!
Youre welcome back anytime :D
+Meera Khan nice that you like sweden :)
I am sorry, where the hell do you find nude people? nudity is NOT normal in Sweden, never seen a place where its normal here and never heard of it. And I dont really feel like there is that many attractive good looking people in Sweden, yes maybe in Stockholm since there is really expensive places there but everywhere else, nah, not that many, and do we really go crazy at midsommar? havent really ever been so much in it since its boring and silly, even for me...
In Stockholm pride parade, and with painting on the skin. And I agree this video is really misleading in many perspective....

The "thing" with midsommar is that the sun doesnt go down that day
The sun sets in most of Sweden. At midsummer the sun is up for 18 hours in Gothenburg and 18,5 hours in Stockholm. You need to be north of the arctic circle for the sun to be up for 24 hours.
In the north of Sweden. Kiruna
If u are in the north part of Sweden, in the mittle of summer or winter u may be seeing a hole day were the sun doesnt go down or when the sun doesnt go up
Im swede and I died when he said “system bolaget” in the beginning😂😂😂❤️ it’s not really pronounced like that
uuugh... the 6th shock...
You kinda shock me too. And I'm Swedish.
Swedish people don't generally look "better" than anywhere else, unless you prefer blond hair. I believe many Swedens to be "healthy". We have very good living conditions, and every social media nag us all the time about eating healthy food (annoying as hell).
But saying that Swedish people look good... If you look after people that look good then you'll see them.
You won't see me and the other "uglies" when you're manhunting. But we are actually Swedish people too! Even though we might not have long slim legs, good fashion sense and blond hair.
You could be Swedish. As long as you say "Köttbullar" then no one here would suspect that you were anything else.
Another thing. I'm not friendly. I'm open and nice in general, but don't think you'll come anywhere near my personal space. Swedish people are no more than that, people. We're human too. Not some amazing fantasy, viking, nude, blond, long-legged, polar bear wrestling, "actually nice when you get to know them" people. Just normal humans, living in Sweden.
If you want to see the sweat smelling, bad tempered, bad looking people, well... you won't see me. I'm all locked up in my house. But that doesn't mean that I'm not here.
Still seems like a lit country
lit???
We have like 4-8 weeks that are actually sunlit per year. Otherwise it's dark and cloudy.
But yeah ^^
Sweden is nice :)
+Noasphere lol that's not what I meant, but I see what you did there
Nej. Det är förfan två hela månader med sol!
Kattegatt 2003 Om du bor uppåt landet ja, men i skåne så är det nästan två timmar med snö och sen är det slask!
Liite överdrivet kanske men i princip!
for a dane it's weird That the swedish People Are so Open and freindly. Because we Are so shy in denmark, we Are never saying "hej" to People we dont know. And the swedish People Are so Nice, in denmark we Are like "hand me the salt" but in sweden the a more Likely to saying "please hand me the salt".
True. Very true.
well you danes are more like we the Finns!
Nope im from stevns, u know Stevns klint.
That was a good Tack you said there in the end.
