Those ladders are primarily for when people fall in the water. They need some way to get up. People don't really swim in those canals.
Safety first! 😂
I once saw some drunk swedish guy jumping in for a swim. I asked him "you're not from around here are you?". "Nah im from Stockholm, how did you know?". "Cuz I grew up here and i would NEVER swim there".
Trams are the quickest way around town, unless you're walking...
And they are so iconic!
Göteborgskursen ;)
@@isaka3719 hähä.. jepp :D
Its feels so odd when you walking through my place in Gothenburg! Thats the candystore I go to, thats my old school, I SEE MY HOUSE and so on and on! Enjoy the video, greeting from Gothenburg!
Haha! I guess you just live in such a beautiful area! Also... that candy store is DELICIOUS!
I just paused at the universeum part and had a flashback. I've been there so much. With my school and with my family. Remembered many memories from that place. I can still remember where everything is in details. It's like a tradition for me and my mom to go there every summer. Sadly we couldn't go there last year due to covid-19. But hopefully we can this year! Gothenburg is really pretty and I'm so happy I live here. And especially that there is this huge forest with mountains and amazing view right beside where I live. When you stand on one of the mountains and look over the area it just looks like were trapped by forests. Like where this small introverted place no one knows. I really love nature! It's super amazing where I live!
Amazing! That sounds like a wonderful tradition! I've got my fingers crossed that you and your mom can go again this year. You've got quite a beautiful city indeed 😃
@@NatashaBergen you're inspiring thank you :)
Rly well put together video. I thought I was watching someone with millions of subs before I checked and realized you are still small. Keep it up and I think you'll be a big RUclips in the future if you keep it up. At least I couldn't feel any difference. GL you got my sub, like and genuine comment.
Thank you Glenn! That's so kind of you - I'm blushing 🙊 ! Still small indeed but I love it either way and glad you enjoyed it!! 😁
It's really fun to see my hometown from a tourist point of you! I recognise all the little shops and streets and it's really fun to see what you as a visitor find amusing and beautiful 😊 half the time I went, oh yea.. I haven't thought about that. Because I see it every day.
Loved the video, great quality and you had a real cosy feeling throughout it all 😄
I totally agree, sometimes I think we forget what our city has to offer, I'm the same! 😂 It really is a nice place to have a home town! I'm glad you liked it😁
the "lipstick" building you saw in the end, is called "läppstiftet" (the lipstick) by us in gothenburg =) so you were right! there's a lot more to see here. but nice that you had a good time //Göteborgare
Really?! Love that and thanks for letting me know 😁- and I love Gothenburg! I'll be back for sure when Europe opens up again.
@@NatashaBergen no problem :) i've been living here all my life. Can give you a Couple of suggestions of what to see next time. Late spring to mid august is best.
@@Mange4 Great! So kind! Thank you - I've got my fingers crossed that Europe will be okay to travel in 2021 :) Let's see!
@@NatashaBergen www.goteborg.com/ I think this is the best way to see what to do in Gothenburg =) you can select english on the site.
One of the ugliest buildings in Sweden, sadly.
This was fun to watch! I live in Gothenburg so seeing my city through your eyes was a lovely Expierience! I kept thinking What if Someone I know or even myself pops up! Hehe
Awesome! I'm really glad I did it justice then 😁 I hear I captured some people's schools and places they are familiar with 😝 Maybe I got a place you know really well?!
Thank you so much for visiting us! You seem sooo nice. I wish I had run into you when you were here - I'd have shown you ALL the stuff. Funny seeing a video made by a foreigner and I'm just like "Oh look - I had a date in there once!" and "Ooh look my friends used to live up those stairs!" and so on :D
Thank you for having me! Everyone I met was very welcoming! Maybe next time we will run into each other - it's a small world eh?!😁
Fun Facts!
1. Skansen Kronan, the fortress has a "sister" Fortress viewable from the top. They hade the same "calling for aid" system as in lord of the rings with lighting fires.
2. The canal is quite old and the stairs on the sides where for boats docking with deliveries. The Houses closest to the water usually hade basements for storage below the front door, you can see them still on some buildings.
3. The statue of Poseidon (with the dishsoap in it) used to have quite a large male member... but being back in the old days with recidential areas really close some ladies got quite offended by view while drinkin their morning coffee so the statue was modified.
Let me know if you ever return to Gothenburg and thank you for this beautiful perspective of my hometown :)
I LOVE fun facts! Thank you 😁 I'm a big fan of LOTR so I can definitely get on board with the first fact - I'll have to look for the sister next time. The third fact always makes me giggle🤣
Once you visited Sweden in the winter you get why we love the sun once it shows up.
I love Gothenburg, think it's my favorite swedish city. I would love to visit the northern parts of Sweden, never been north of Sundsvall and I am a born and raised swede.
Bold statement - nice! I think it's got so much to offer as a city ☺️
Göteborgians seems like a accurate translation of the Göteborgare. And offcourse we love the sun, it's because it makes us forget about the "from-the-side-rain" and the periods when the sun isn't anywhere to be found at all (like november-december). When it comes back to the sky it's compulsory to sun-bath with closed eyes while waiting for the tram.
It's a nice balance to have this appreciation! It's something I quite like as you don't take anything for granted 😁
Thanks for showing my city in the wonderfull sunny fall season again as I am covered in winter darkness and would have loved to re-experience the times before this virus completely took it almost all away because of restrictions!
The good news is that it is soon 2021 and we can all put this mess of year behind us!
Have a nice week!
Yes, that's the bright side! It will all be over soon and we can move on to better times. All the best to you in Sweden 😊
It's such a fresh breath of air to see Sweden from an outsiders perspective. Hope you come travel Sweden some more, especially in the summertime it can be incredibly beautiful and people tend to be even friendlier with the sun really out. :D
I can't imagine people being friendlier! Wow! I was always greeted with a smile ☺️
Fun video Natasha! Love my hometown Gothenburg. What you do need to experience though, is our archipelago in the summertime. Pure beauty! Thanks for sharing the video
Yes one day I hope! I can only imagine how beautiful it is in the summer! You live in a gorgeous area 😄
Thanks for presenting my home city in such nice way!
Hi Stig! Thanks for watching!! It’s easy to do when it’s so beautiful 😁
Universeum is awesome! It's been too long since I was in Gothenburg, and even longer since I had a look at the rainforest critters. Great video showing off the place :)
Yes! I've got to agree, one of the best museums I've seen 😄
@@NatashaBergen Well, then you haven't seen all the cool ones in Stockholm! Just sayin' - the Vasa museum, Skansen, Birka (the Viking City) etc etc :)
@@ThreeStarVagabond Brilliant! I seriously have a long list of things to see in Sweden now! 😂 I'll end up being there for months 😂
It's really fun seeing my own city through the eyes of a tourist, didn't realise all the stuff that have just become a part of everyday life.
It's funny how that happens right? 😁
I went to Gothenburg for exchange studies few months ago, many familiar places from your video, lots of memories. (and I went to Brännö island too!)
Stay safe on your upcoming journey~
Awe really!? What a treat 😁 What did you think of Brännö? Beautiful right!
@@NatashaBergen I walked all the way to the west side of the island, hoping to see Denmark which is on the other side of the sea, it turned out that it's not possible LOL
Still great view though along the way
@@kwokleon2148 so cool! I didn't realize Denmark was so close until you mentioned this. I bet it was a nice walk!
Great title line Tash. Awesome and well put together footage. Makes me want to check out Sweden. Looking forward to your future adventures
Awe thanks dad! I'm glad you liked it =) You'd love Sweden! I know it!
"I think it was built in neolithic times" lol. (neolithic is 10 000 years ago).
Been living in Göteborg for fifteen years and seeing you discover the city like this gave me a tingeling feeling.
Can´t wait for things to get back the the more normal state :)
Such a long time - wonderful! Yes, hopefully it's soon 😁
In Göteborg I was born, in Göteborg I’m gona die. I love this town.❤️
Amazing place to spend your life 😁
RAINFOREST in SWEDEN Good video, I like watching your holiday, it's fun and exciting, you look beautiful, I hope your holiday is always fun and happy
Oh thank you!! It was a lovely time indeed! Highly recommend!
Loved your film! I'm born and raised in Göteborg and it's really fun and also interesting to hear someone who has never been there to see the city without bias! :) I grow up in one of the grey houses in the beginning of the film and lived very close to Oscar Fredrik church.
Glad you loved Gothenburg and welcome back when perhaps it's not just a construction site 😅
Thanks so much! 😁 I try not to have bias... it can be difficult though! Is there a bit of rivalry between Gothenburg and Stockholm or a different kind of bias? Also, that church is stunning! I had never seen something like that before!
Hi Natasha!
Loved your video portraits of Gothenburg. I live more in the middle of south Sweden in a small town called Alvesta. (210km south east)
I just wanted to clarify why we Swedes love the sun so much. That's easy. We don't get so much sun during wintertime.
The days are really short and if it is like the last couple of years we also have to deal with a thick clouded sky that lasts for month...
Everything is just grey and wet. So when the sun comes out we blossom!!!
Sunrise were I live is around 08.30 and sunset starts around 15.20.
Start November 2019 up until the 28th we had were I live 3 hours of sun. 27 days with no sunlight!!!
This year we've had alot more sun in November... around 25 hours!!!! Almost 1 hour a day WEEEHOOO!!!
And just maby a couple of hours during December so far....
So when the sun comes out YEAH... we #%¤&*~ PARTY!
Be safe

Ps: The closest pronunciation for my name is the English word burn. Just put a J after the B and there you have it!
Wow! 🤩 I'm loving the details AND the enthusiasm! I don't blame you, I'd party too - slip and slide and all 🤣 I googled your city, and it looks like there are tons of lakes around (not sure if I got that right). If so, I'm guessing it's a beautiful area!!
@@NatashaBergen Yes it is a lot of lakes around where I live. Sweden in total have around 100 000 lakes bigger than 100m in square. I am a lucke one living here. If you get the chance, please visit Sweden again. There is a lot to explore...
Please visit my photographic homepage to see some pics from around where I live.

@@bjornbear6856 Wonderful, I'll definitely have to visit this area then! The photos you took really show the beauty of the land and lakes (of course) - also Iceland looks gorgeous! Yes!! I will definitely be back when the EU opens up again, I'll see your beautiful country from south to north if I can =)
@@NatashaBergen Let me know and I'll give you some tips on beautiful, cool places.
@@bjornbear6856 wonderful! Thanks!
Amazing so see my home town through your eyes! It looks really beautiful :D
Thanks Henrik! I'm glad I did it justice 😁
Really nice footage! I think you convinced me to go to Universeum sometime, never been interested until now!
Which camera are you using btw!? Cheers and happy new year!
Yes! It's really worth it - and I secretly don't like museums 🤣 I use a Gopro 8, Canon EOS 200D and an iphone (especially good in the rainforest)😃
Best tip around really.. Find where the locals eat. I apply that wherever I go in the world. Happy you enjoyed my city and if you come back, may-august makes the entire city shine.
Yes! Locals know best, so I'll listen to your advice 😁
Nice video! It´s special to see your hometown from someone who is visiting. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Rickard! 🤩
I really love seeing your video thru your eyes. My hometown since 55 years. And I became happy that you are likning what you are exploring in my town... ps. There is nobody taking a bath in the canal 🤗.
Awesome! Thank you for being here! I'm glad I did it justice 😁
Love the video! Only one correction, we do not swim in the canal during summer haha but it happens that people fall in after a night out being a little bit tipsy :P
Oh wow really! I literally just laughed out loud...😂 Well I hope they can all find the ladders safely
Hi Natasha, loved this video. I would really like to know what the food is like in Gothenburg for vegans. Do they have much fresh organic produce? is any of it grown in Sweden etc?
Hey Sergio! Thanks 😁 I'm glad you liked it! I can only speak to my experience in Gothenburg at the moment but I had no problems at all finding delicious vegan options and the grocery stores were always well stocked with fresh food. As for local food, it was so many months ago I can't remember exactly if what I got was from Sweden but next time I go I'll be sure to take note and mention it in a video 😁
@@NatashaBergen Thank you!
Great video seeing my hometown,i think u got to see the top sites and attractions and glad you enjoyed your stay.And as someone else said those ladders in the canal are just for emergency use,no one really swims there in the summertime.
And Universeum is a great place i definetly agree.
Your hometown is so lovely! I think since it's my first Scandinavian city I didn't know what to expect and so was pretty pleased at how different it is from this part of Europe (Spain). 😁
@@NatashaBergen You are right,but its abit pricey compared to southern europe cities but its nice to get some perspectives of ur hometown since for me and many other i guess we dont appreciate it in the same way tourists do and like and see things different
Really.........Ur Sweden too much good place ..........Cool , clam & beautiful & ur vlogs r also so beautiful.......... Great Natasha
It’s is a great place! 😁 Thanks! 🤩
@@NatashaBergen make more vlog around Sweden ..........Go ahead
@@HSoum haha I would love that!
Great video! Making me miss my hometown. I moved away about a year ago but I suddenly feel like I’m back again!
Awe fantastic! Did you move to another part of Sweden? I hope you are liking your new home 😁
@@NatashaBergen Yes, the whole family moved to Småland, a few hours to the east. We love it here. But Gothenburg, well, it’ll always be home for me. So that video really brightened my day. Glad you enjoyed the city!
@@andreasalov7618 Amazing, I'm glad to hear that it's working out! Also happy it brightened your day 😁😁😁
My daughter has lived in Gothenburg for the past few years. Husband is an astrophysicist at Chalmers.
I really enjoyed your video! Next time you come around, I hope you make it over the river to Hisingen, where I live. It has some of the most modern architecture as well as some of the oldest churches, dating back to medieval times. There is also a small nature reserve called Rya Skog, which is certainly not a rain forest, but it has a lot of birds, insects and rare fungi. And there are free ferries that will take you out to several islands, where you will find both stark nature and a bit of touristy stuff.
You have a new subscriber :-)
Awe I'm glad you liked it!😁 You had me at nature reserve - that sounds lovely! Thank you very much for the info, so kind! 🙌🏼 Thank you for being here!!
@@NatashaBergen You are more than welcome!
@@pianystrom8137 😁😁😁
Love Gothenburg, it's my hometown. THX, Love & peace! 💙💛💙
You have a lovely home town!! 😁
@@NatashaBergen Yes, and you're always welcome back!
@@emmaa1000 😍😍😍
Most coffeshops usually have suger by the chasier or at the side of it. You should not feel like your are taking up there time by asking though.
I'm a Canadian I can't help it 😂 too polite for my own good 🤦♀️
Awesome footage of Göteborg and high spirited vloggin
It's a beautiful place so it's easy to do 😁😁😁 thank you
Thanks for making my home town look so nice :)
It's SO easy with all the quaint places, clean streets and different architecture (from Spain and definetly Canada)! 😁
Hey! Glad you visited Gothenburg. Funny that you filmed my sailboat with the little dingy on the stern. Have fun in Sweden!
WHAT?! Such a small world! I don't know why at the time but I loved that little dingy with the flag -lots of charm I guess!
what inspired you to travel the world? i don't know like i've been to places but never outside of europe. makes me happy to see that u were in my home city gothenburg has lots of great things to offer :).
It really does - there are so many great things and it was all luck that I ended up in Gothenburg! I'm not exactly sure but after my first taste of life outside of Canada, I was hooked! 😁
@@NatashaBergen i have a few places i want to go my brother he has like travelled the world cause of his charity work within the UN so im abit jealous hopefully when this pandemic lightens up abit i can pack my bags and traverse the world.
Besides the Gothenburg symphony orchestra that I hear on the new Classical FM radio station.
2250 subs....you should have 2,25 million subs - and this was a really great vid to watch! Natasha Charisma Bergen/Mountains :)))
Thanks!! 🤩 Wait a tickle.. is Bergen also mountains in Swedish? Or just German?
@@NatashaBergen Thank YOU :)) Love that: wait a tickle - i think i miiight have heard it before.....but not sure...i really want you to use it some more....(no a lot, because it was cute:) Don´t know about German, but Bergen is the swedish word for Mountains :) (now i used google translation Svedish to German - and the answer was: Bergen = Berge :) In swedish: one/ett mountain/berg, two/två berg/mountains. Bergen är där borta/The mountains is over there :) (Berg is also a surname here in sweden, but not Bergen, so it is so cute with your surname + Natasha is also really nice/cute/lovely :)

Awesome!! Thanks for being here 😁 All you new people make my day brighter!
Yay just found your video and channel! So fun to watch 😍
Thanks Emma 😁 Happy you're here 🙌🏼
Funny how you show up on my recommended and at 0:40 i can already see my apartment balcony.
😂😂😂 really?!
I love how I knew exactly what you were speaking about without having seen the video hahahahaha
For the mandatory work experience programs in year 9 I worked at a record shop close to the Oscar Fredrik Church.
One more thing, I've been to the exact same place as you were in the beginning of this video!
YES! That's awesome you guessed it straight away! 😁
Hey so cool of you visiting my hometown :D
Awe 😁 well you have such a nice hometown!
omg. good job jogging up the staircase of hell! XD
😂 I did have a pit stop to put the camera down 😂
I hope you had time to see the archipelago around Gothenburg. It's fantastic! And I'm living on the east coast of Sweden, so I should probably not promote the greatness of the archipelago om the west coast (there's a bit of rivalry...). Thanks for a great video!
Haha I've noticed the rivalry! 😂 But yes the archipelago is really beautiful!! I've never been to the east coast of Sweden but in Canada we always so 'the west coast is the best coast' from some reason 😝
You have so much left to see in Gothenburg and in Sweden in general! HMU when you're back for travel suggestions outside of Gothenburg :)
Yes, you better believe it! 😁
thats insane, i was at the store at 1:14 today, had never heard about this channel but this is crazy. i had never been to that part of gothburg in my life but just today i had to get something from that store and also today i find this video thats insane
Ooooooo it's the universe! I love these kinds of coincidences 😍
So many places I used to see on a daily basis, alas COVID has kept me away. Thanks for sharing 🙏
It's hard right, I don't think any of us expected it to go on so long. Stay safe 😁
Sweden is a such beautiful nation .......
YESS it is!!! I couldn't agree more
You got both my old house and my old work in the same vid. Nice to see but strange. I enjoyed it.
Haha really?! Small city vibes 😁 I'm glad you liked it!
@@NatashaBergen Second biggest town in my country. Similar to Birmingham, Los Angeles, Osaka, St Petersburg and Rio de Janeiro.. Its all about perspective :)
@@greenmachinesweden yes - those are great comparisons because most countries have that right. I like your perspective 😉
I really enjoy videos like this when someone checking out my country but I can hardly hear you through the music.
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate it 😁
Göteborg är underbart och super. Bästa staden hela Skandinavien.
Bold statement! 😁 All of Scandinavia!
@@NatashaBergen you are always Welcome Natasha 🤗
@@NatashaBergen Nah, Stockholm and "The old Twon", amongst many things, is in its own league really!
And this is coming from a person (me!) who have lived in or near Gothenburg for 25 years!
Gothenburg in itself is ok, I guess. Somewhere in th middle of Swedish towns when it comes to "looks" and how interesting it is.
But the most beautiful part of Gothenburg is, by far, the archipelago. A tips is to go by one of the ferries to Brännö in the summer!
@@viktoria.j.a.1066 Thank you!!! 😁
@@Magnus_Loov I agree, the islands are stunning!!
What a nice and good video you had made. I am from Gothenburg and have lived here all my life. you made the video interesting to watch and it was entertaining. I recognized most of the places you visited and Gothenburg is an interesting city. there is much more to see such as the suburbs such as Partille, Mölnlycke, Mölndal. next time you come to Gothenburg you should visit the suburbs.
I have another question as well, what is the brand on your video camera and what product number is on it. for it seems to be a good one. would appreciate if you could give me that information on it. have considered getting a camcorder.
thanks for an entertaining video.
Great! I'm glad I could do your city justice! I generally use the Canon EOS 200D and GoPro hero 8 but it situations like the universeum it as just my iphone. 😁 If you're considering it, the DSLR I have is generally at an affordable price, it's nothing fancy but does the job 😁
You should check more places in Sweden, Stockholm or some northern cites
You bet! After this pandemic, for sure!
What's with the title of this video? All forests that we have in the whole of the northern hemisphere are rainforests. They're called "temperate rainforests" and are just as important to the climate as the tropical rainforests. And HEAVEN'S no! I live in Gothenburg and I wouldn't even think about taking a dip in the channel or river around the city. xD Those ladders are there to help people getting up again if they happened to fall down. In the olden times these bodies of water was used as a trading route between solid ground and the neighbouring island Hisiningen before there were bridges connecting them. I actually grew up on Hisingen. :)
That's so cool you grew up on one of those islands! I've never been to that one but I imagine it was pretty great as a child. I also love the idea of thinking about ages ago when the canals were trading routes - such cool history! Coming from Canada I always seem to forget that cities in Europe are centuries older than my own country! 😂
@@NatashaBergen Left some details out of that story, during the time when these trading routes I referred to existed, Gothenburg wasn't technically a city yet, more like a larger settlement or a town. It was actually quite recent they discovered some shipwrecks down under an area called "Packhusplatsen" when they unearthed some space for the so called "Västlänken". But they seem to think they were from the early 17th centuary or so, a few decades before the city of Gothenburg was founded. :) Oh, and Hisingen is more of a city in itself, much larger than Brännö which you were at in the video, and those islands around.
I live in Linnéstan (the area in the beginning of the video). I actually saw you with your camera around the church. You should come in the summer. Ask someone to show you nice summer places in Gothenburg.
NO WAY!😳 😂 Next time say hello! I bet I looked crazy just vlogging away to myself (well you)!
I shouldnt have been surprised but its still weird seeing a youtube vid from almost outside my house!
🤣😂 No way!! It really shows how small the world is sometimes right?!
You are in our street in Haga 😊👍
Check out our page and see what we do in the area Instagram #Swedishmagnetfishing
Lucky! The Haga streets are lovely!!
You saw alot, but still have alot to see here. You should come in the summer and found somebody to show you what you missed out. Ty for visiting us.
You are so right! I missed the whole country basically 🤣 I've got a trip planned when it's okay to travel again 😄 Any suggestions, top places??
@@NatashaBergen It depends, where you going and what you like to see. If you coming back Gothenburg, you should definitivt see for ex Masthuggskyrkan, you were very close to it, when you visit the old prison in Haga, not only for the amazing view but the church is kind of unique when you go inside. You should also visit Älvsborgs fästning(Old fortress that never been breached), Kungälv Fästning(Old castle that also never been breached), There is also in middle of the city a king house(Kronhuset), not really a castle but one king died, borned and was crowned king there. The have a nice beer place there with like 800 different beers just around the corner if you like haha, Behind Universium you probably saw a big amusement park, that park you should definitivt go to. Slottskogen, (Huge park, very close to Haga) very beautiful in the summer and a lot to see there. We have some unique restaurant and coffeshop also for ex Pute madre (Weird name for restaurant but with a werd design) And much more. Outside Gothenburg, you should definitivt go to Grenna, is a small village only 3hours with bus from Gothenburg. 1 stop in Jönköping(also nice place). They have like 3 castle there in Grenna and first King Castle in Sweden called Nääs Slott, on the island of Visingsö(Only 15 min with boat from Grenna), that one is not much to see but the other 2 castles, But that is not all, Grenna is famous world wide for a speciell candy that you can see, in all american christmas movies, the red and white candy that they hang in the tree. They make that sugerbased candy everywhere there. Some shops you can try out for youself how to do it. Ales stenar, is like stoneheng but in south of Sweden, Stockholm has many nice things to see aswell. The Ice hotell, Nordic light, Birka(Old Viking village), Hällristningsområdet i Tannum (Viking drawings), Visby on the island of Gotland, you live through the middle age haha), We have alot of beautiful castles everywhere if you like those kind of things. And much more, let me know if you need a guide =)
@@NO1jkpg WOW!! Thanks Andreas! It's so kind of you to share all this! There's so much to see, do and experience! I'm going to add these to my list as well 😁 I'm especially keen on trying to make the candies and the old viking village 😍 It also sounds like you are keen on history! 😊
@@NatashaBergen No problem. I like history my self, i read all the time about historic places around the world and if i go somewhere i want to know as much as possible so i am glad i could help out. I aslo know that Canada have some viking places as well. I think i going to do a trip myself in the summer. I want to try out Göta kanal(www.gotakanal.se/en/the-gota-canal-history/) and also visit www.fastningsmuseet.se/visit-us/opening-hours-and-entrance-info/?lang=en. These 2 places was build at the same time, when we lost Findland in the war against Russia. We needed a place to escaperoute and a fortress, if the goverment needed to run from Stockholm. Around 60.000 people was building this mostly soldiers.
@@NO1jkpg Wow there is literally history everywhere! Amazing! I hope the trip goes well, I might have to grab some of these suggestions! 😁
So you started off around Haga, walked over to Korsvägen, and then finished up at Slottsskogen. Nice, I think you did a good job showing Gothenburg. But no, you cant swim in the canal, well you could if you were a nut, but its not really that clean. 😎
I am a bit of nut 😏 I'm glad I got all of the good bits! I wish could've gone to the fish market though (it was closed) 😞
As far as swedish cities go, Gothenburg is very young :)
Sweden has oddly young cities compared to mainland Europe. Gothenburg formally 1621 so 400years this year. Denmark has more of a central European structure with older houses. Seems most medieval houses in Sweden were made of wood and left to desintegrate. Norwegian "Stavkirke" (fantastic wooden churches of late norse arcitechture) has been standing since medieval times only to be burned down by "satanic" retards.
really? How young in comparison to other major Swedish cities?
@@NatashaBergen I'm from Uppsala, a city north of Stockholm. Uppsala University is from 1477 but I think the city is from 1100-1200. :)
@@ottopetren8372 WOW! That is indeed old! It humbles us Canadians because we're only just 150 years old - and look at you! 😅
@@NatashaBergen Canadians are so nice. A humble version of americans (way better) :)
You should visit Skellefteå and Umeå upnorth Sweden! :)
Thank you for the suggestions!😁
Lösgodis-stores are the best kind of stores!
🤤 yes!
I hope you will return when the pandemic are over. So muth to do then, Liseberg, Ullevi, way out west and so on.
Fingers crossed! Thank you for the suggestions 🙌🏼
You should visited Marstrand outside of gothenburg.. its a biiig castle by the sea :) (close to were i live) :D
So many castles, I'm guessing there's some interesting history behind it too?!
@@NatashaBergen it was finished at 1860, and its one of the strongest castles in europe :) its realy nice actualy, you can goodle Carlstens Fästning :)
@@rasmusedstrom9496 Wow, yes very fascinating! 😁
Everyone is named Glenn in Göteborg. It is known
Cinnamon buns and coffee are pretty normal coffees.
😂 true dat!
cinamonbun is from sweden thats why its so popular
and sooooo delicious🤤
@@NatashaBergen In sweden and finland the cinamonbun also has it's own day on the 4th of october
@@viggo9454 that sounds like the best day 🤤 I wish I had stayed a little longer to experience it!
This was fun!
Wicked! Glad you enjoyed! 😁
Eeeyy we had our last days of the school (right next to it) semesters in that church!
haha awesome!! 😁😁
Just slipped over your youtube clip. And it's just happened that you whent to "Brännö" I am born and raised on the Island on the left (Asperö) that you can see when you entered the canal.
Really?! I remember seeing it on the map - very cool. I love how there aren't really any cars and the vibes are very relaxing 😁
Very good 👍❤️
❤💛💚💙
If you are going to check out Sweden, Norway and Finland, you need to go by car or rather motorcycle.
Seeing cities says more about "current year", than the culture. Modern big cities are not represenative of any nation.
Norway has fjords, mountains and medieval Stavkirke - and oddly placed family houses in the middle of nowhere. Sweden has many kinds of climat zones for such small country and historical sites from neolithic times through bronze age. And more current history such as iron age, medieval and the later Christian dominated history. Finland was a part of Sweden until 1809, but with a more masculine twist ;) Finland has vast forests, long gravel loads and the menacing Russian border. It's also known for it's "1000 lakes", though that is of course an understatement. They are trying to hi-jack santa from Sweden - but I guess that's OK. Hope they forgive us for kicking their asses in hockey 9/10.
Wow, so much history AND you're a hockey fan! Scandinavia makes for good hockey competition for Canada!
@@NatashaBergen Yeah Canada is even more of a hockey nation. of course. The Finns may have a "bad tournament" and loose against all the other teams including Germany and Switzerland - but when Sweden is the opponent, all bets are off. Doesn't matter what form the Swedish team is in, Finland is never easy. Which Stalin got taught a lesson about in the Finnish winter war of 1939. Not a die hard hockey fan; it's a part of our modern culture. It beats war for bragging rights (most popular sports are most often ritualized war).
I didn't catch you are Canadian, eh? This is the first video I see with you. I was intrigued about rain forest and a cute girl so I watched. Gothenburg is the rain capital of
Sweden, so I actually thought you were exploring a micro climate, similar to the temperate rainforests of British Columbia.
@@impalaSS65 Haha I love the 'eh' you added in! Yeah hockey is indeed Canada's game but I always remember the matches where we were on the edge of our seats against with both Swede and Finn teams! That's great that you know that! Not many people know that we have a 'rainforest' in on the west coast. It was refreshing to see this one at the Universeum - even if it was indoors - it reminded me of far away lands 😁
@@NatashaBergen Ok, good - the hoser-jokes, "eh", polar bear and igloo allusions could sometimes become a tiresome cliche. Southpark should pay royalties to Canada. Though I have no memory of the flapping heads and beady little eyes when I was an exchange student just outside Leduc, Alberta. Btw the city street Rick Moranis was doing a Broadway-like song and dance routine in SCTV (recorded and produced in Edmonton for some time).
So yeah, Canada has a special place in my heart.
@@impalaSS65 Wow bud, sounds like yah really know your stuff eh!? 😁😂 That's fantastic you kept Canada in your heart AND more importantly you know what a hoser is! Love it!!
I visited the candy shop there and honestly i was suprised at how small it was in comparison with the candy shop near me, im swedish and the shop im refering to is Gottebitten
There are bigger ones ?! 😳
@@NatashaBergen oh absolutely, the one im refering to is in a small city called Strömstad at a shoppingcenter called Nordby, that one is on a tied first place for the worlds largest candy shop, the whole shopingcenter is the largest one in scandinavia where everything is under the same roof too. Strömstad is located a few hours north of Göteborg/Gothenburg
@@elementalgamer9879 OOOO 🤤 All these suggestions are going to keep me in Sweden forever if I'm not careful 😂 Thanks Isak!
@@NatashaBergen and its going to get worse xD. Just outside the city of Strömstad there is something called a judgement ring eller dom ring on swedish that is as old as the vikings and there are multple places around with something called hällristningar wich are rock carving that also comes from the viking age.
@@elementalgamer9879 my mind is blown! This is something so special, I mean we have cave paintings in Canada but nothing quite like that - I love this kind history and how it touches modern day and (modern tribes/groups) 😁
Nice video from Göteborg, sweden
Thanks Dennis!!
Gothenburg - my favorite town....
🤣 not sure if it's sarcasm, but I'll take it 😝
@@NatashaBergen no honestly - and I have been there several times....
@@719559 really?! Cool 😁 I really do love it! I think it's the European charm I'm not used to growing up around! What do you think it is for you?
@@NatashaBergen as an old world-wide sailor I have been to many cities around. Some places you feel very good such as Gothenburg, Hamburg, Amsterdam some places you feel very bad such as the in the world's arse-hole Lagos, Nigeria.....
@@719559 so it's all about the feeling, I can get 'on board' with that - (excuse the pun 😂)
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Clicked for the beautiful woman, stayed for the interesting vid
Whoop whoop! Glad you stuck around - thanks for watching 😁
Crazy how many veiws your videos of Gotheburg have gotten. RUclips seems to have recomended them to every one of us Gothburgians out there 🤣
Haha! Tell me about it! I'm as surprised as you are 😂
@@NatashaBergen Quick tip, when someone’s doing a video of Sweden then there’s gonna be a lot of Swedish wives. I don’t really know why but I guess it’s because we like to know how people from different countries see us. Or maybe it’s just nostalgia??
My home town. Hit me up for cofffee on your next visit :D
Fikas all around 😁
Nice city.
Great video!
Stockholm is sweden !
Just be aware of ''buss kontrollanter'' when you travel with västtrafik!
well if you actually pay for your bus ticket you've got nothing to fear..
@@thatdude034 paying 34 kr everyday x2 for a day 5 times a week yeah nooo. Its cheaper to get a tecket once in a while for 1500kr.
@@M4-Variant If you ride the bus that often it's way cheaper to just get a monthly/yearly pass but yes i agree, their prices have become ridiculous lately.. I remember paying 8kr for a ticket as a kid and im not THAT old that inflation have had time to turn 8kr into 34kr. Personally i think it's wrong not to pay for a service you use but on the other hand there's people out there that simply can't afford it yet depends on the service to get by. If you're fine with throwing ethics out the window in this particular case may i suggest planka.nu? You pay them like 100kr/month and if you ever get a fine you just send it to them and they'll pay it for you. It's basically insurrance, if you get fines more often than every 15 months it's worth it. Got some friends who swears that it's the best thing since sliced bread..
I live in sweden stockholm
"you can't find that on a map" ... maybe you should put it on a map?:)
There are better places in Sweden to visit than the big cities cause they look the same all over the globe with houses and streets people and cars and though it does rain in götet there is no rainforest in the whole of sweden at all but maybe in some botanic garden.
Very true! I'd agree although sometimes the big cities are the easiest to get to right 😂 I know the rainforest was caged in but it really warmed me - quite literally and reminded me of good times in earlier days! Any suggestions for places next time I visit? 😏
@@NatashaBergen Anywhere outside and away from the cities pretty much. And they got a similar better greenhouse close to Gothenburg but in Copenhagen Denmark and also two better amusement parks Tivoli and Bakken compared to Liseberg. We do have a wonderful evening light here in Sweden though that works super good for video and or photography. That is when the weather let it happen of course. I do not want to steal attention here but even I caught it once lol

@@BurninSven1 well it just looks so lovely!! I can't deny that!!
You have been travelling for 6 years. You either have rich parents or you inherited lots of money. Very few people can afford to do it.
Neither! I work hard, save hard 😁 Thanks for the perspetive though!
Where're you from?
Canada!
0:39 I bought weed there once
😂😂😂
Jag dörrrrr😂😂😂😂😂
The steps you jogged on in the beggining of the video it was a famous murder in Gothenburg in 1995 i think. Thats all
😳
