I find it difficult when abroad that people act as if everyone is your friend, even if you just met. I find it fake and disturbing- a swede

@@n0namesowhatblerp362 And I can appreciate that too, I find Americans can be overly friendly and it doesn't feel like there's a good boundary there. But as I said, it says something that after 18 months of living in a country that I had virtually no Swedish friends. I met plenty of people who were friendly and said "we should have a fika sometime", but it never happened, and I was invited to the homes of exactly 2 Swedes in all that time. I'm not shitting on Swedes, I'm saying that the culture is quite closed to outsiders, it's better that this be acknowledged so people can manage their expectations.

@@alibushell6762 You had the unfortunate luck of meeting communists...sorry about that.

Maybe you didn't klick with those people you met.

I appreciate the suggestions that, in fact, the problem was me all along. I've been able to make a big network of friends in Finland without the same issues, and similarly where I come from in the UK. I have more than one cultural reference point to work with, my statements about Swedes being hard to get to know stand from my perspective, and that of all the other international people I became friends with who turned to each other because they couldn't make friends with Swedes either.

croack beeing " vocal fry " , and the uptalk makes go go bananas...that aside, good and interesting 20 minutes

Just det, jag hoppas det går bättre för henne på hennes sjilda - det ser ut hemsk i serien!

Hönefross. Look it up

Hmm not sure I just know my gf has good taste in decorating 🙈

They are from ikea 😊

@@alexdiezgit’s probably hønefoss since this things have names of Swedish, Danish and Norwegian towns. There’s a Norwegian town called Hønefoss, so I guess that’s the name?

@@dancesmokesmile344 Yes I just wrote the Swedish name because that how you spell it in Swedish and IKEA uses that name too. But it's definitely Norwegian, don't get me wrong.

Prob bcz we r made fun of when we talk with an accent 🤣🤣

@@Lindaaaaan nobody ABSOLUTELY NOBODY makes fun of your accent except Swedes themselves. The rest of the world, we love your accent.

@@eliotsalgado9908 i can count probably more than 100 times being laughed about when I say certain words and also made fun of. Especially when we say "j" as joking etc. Always made fun of. So what you say is reallt not true and I know for a fact im not the only one made fun of by others for how we speak.

Americans do confuse Sweden and Switzerland, but not Sweden and Swaziland. In fact, Americans really never mention Swaziland.

What?

You have just received the outstanding achievement awards in the field of excellence! This why you are here 💥🤗

@@MrKorton that's just great, thank you!

Because they listen to Mr.Trump: ‘ More immigrants from asshole countries more problems for the country.’ So they just follow up with American ideas.

@@itsmehereandthere6314 correction, they are not woke.

Sweden had Reinfeldt for 8 years. So nothing really new... But yes every time it happens workers get the short end of the stick, as expected.
