"Their english accent is fantastic!" Waow! Fänk jo värry mutch 😊

In Sweden, it is forbidden by law to be a criminal

Yes, we swedes frequently invite complete strangers into our homes. In fact: don't even bother waiting for an invitation! Just find a house, and enter! The screaming is just our customary welcome ritual.

"Sweden is not cheap, unless ur from Norway" *Laughs in Norwegian*

What IKEA in sweden is like: You go there to have lunch but somehow end up coming out 3 hours later with a new bed

If you dont see a line but you see people around, ask them if they're in line

Swedish people are quiet Finnish people: hold my koskenkorva

As a Swede, I can only find Swedish food during holiday seasons or at IKEA. We actually don't have that many restaurants dedicated to our own food. The best way to try Swedish food is to find a lunchrestaurant, usually only open between 11-14 and are often found near big industries. An other good way to explore the Swedish food is to befriend a Swede, we love to show that we can speak english, and we most certainly would love to show you our foodculture.

* Don’t stand to close to a swede at the buss stop * Don’t talk to swedes at all while commuting. They might think that your’re a psycho. And so on..

I love when he talks about Stockholm but he actually uses footage from Gothenburg.. ✌️💪

Yeah and one thing about Swedes(yes im Swedish) is that we are most of the time very helpful so dont be afraid to ask a Swede if you have any questions. And also as mentioned in the video most people in Sweden are great at speaking english

"Don't worry about your safety" Malmö: Lol I would

A$AP ROCKY should have watched this before the concert

As a Swede, I find this video HIGHLY accurate. The only thing I'd like to point out is that Stockholm is *extremely* overpriced, and doesn't reflect the rest of the country that well. They KNOW they can get away with those insane price tags because of the tourism. But if you check out the smaller towns just a couple of miles outside the capital, you'll notice that you'll be able to get things for much more managable prices. :) Kudos to you for making this video, and thank you for enjoying our silly country!

I am swedish and it was pretty accurate. Now i kinda feel like tricking a tourist into eating Surströmming.

"Don't let a Swede trick you into eating Surströmming" Damn it, they're on to us ...^^

Also, don't you dare to confuse Sweden and Switzerland. This is the fastest way to annoy swede I know.

Sweden is so beautiful. Stockholm almost robbed me of my entire life's savings but the Vasa Museum and Skansen made me forget about it completely. Greetings and love from Germany ♥

don't be weirded out when somebody drinks 5 cups of coffee a day because that's very normal here.

I’ve never really thought of how ‘quiet’ the streets are, but I guess you’re right! We don’t really talk and yell too much, and when we do, it’s not so other people hear

Of course you don't have your shoes on indoors. You leave dirt all over the floors and they have to clean up after you. I don't understand how this is such a foreign concept. Shoes outdoors, no shoes in homes.

The seagulls are like music to my ears its just the sound of summer sweden in a coastal area

As a Swede I don't get why people in some other countries would even want to wear their outdoor shoes inside their home at all, especially if you have carpet floors. Not just because of the dirt you will drag inside but from a hygiene perspective as well. You need to let your feet air out once in awhile. If you have cold feet just wear indoor slippers instead. The only time I have wore shoes inside was when I stayed at a hotel in Britain with a carpet floor. It was so nasty I didn't want to take my shoes off. Maybe that's why people do it..

As a swede, I can confirm that this is very accurate.

”The swedes are reserved and quite except when they are drinking” lol I totally agree.

When you're Swedish and decide to watch things not to do in Sweden... lol

Love this guy:) The energy and entusiasm :)

I don’t undertand why you should have your shoes inside....and i don’t think i ever will.

Fun fact in Sweden 89% of the population speaks English... that's more than Canada which has 85% so don't worry y'all

2:46 wow the old 100 and 50 kronor patches, i really miss those...

I’ve been to Sweden twice. The first time for a few months. I thought I was in a cold paradise. I loved it !!!

just got from sweden and the people are quite helpful and friendly. was expecting snobs based on wolters world

Vem kollar på den här videon och är svensk

No. 1 “Don’t visit Sweden as a Danish person”

Thanks for doing these vidios,i’ve learnt alot ..short n sweet but full of info.

What a nice video 👌 good job🙌, thanks a lot Walter🌹

Also don't go to Rinkeby.

You forgot about not being late.

Thank you! I now know everything about the country I've been living in since I was born

Best world cultural informations, keep up dude, am watching your vedios for ages🌹

Why would you *not* take off your shoes Famously said by me, a Swede Edit: Okay this comment has caused a few disagreements I see. I just want do make clear that *I don't want to offend anyone* . For me, who has in sweden my whole life I just find it unnatural to wear the same shoes inside as you do ouside as it brings dirt inside. I've never had full room carpets in my home and therefore I can't speak for those who do. If floors are cold or likewise I just wear indoor shoes. *Once again I did not mean to offend anyone, I greatly respect tradidions and cultures of your countries.*

Heads up: The Swedish cash you showed are invalid. Good video 🙂

The world can be diverse but beautiful, when you are informed! Merry Christmas! 😉🍷

You forgot the most important part my friend, dont ever take a taxi. A 1-hour ride costs more than your rent.

I have been to Sweden twice, once as a high school student, and the second time when my daughter went there as an exchange student and I took my wife and other two daughters there to pick her up at the end of her stay. On our second trip, my daughter's host family said that they were going on vacation and graciously offered their apartment for our use during our stay. With the money we saved I rented a van and we traveled from Helsingborg to Stockholm and had an incredible time. I would agree with almost everything said here but there are ways to get around the expense. First of all alcohol is expensive so many Swedes take the ferry from Sweden to Denmark to buy there booze and it is not unusual to see them with shopping carts full of booze on the ferry. If you are staying in the southern part of Sweden make sure you plan to take the ferry to Denmark and spend a day or two in Copenhagen, especially Tivoli Gardens. A bit pricey but well worth the money. If you want alcohol buy it in Denmark and take it with you. Also if you want to save money both Sweden and Denmark have nice youth hostels, some which allow adults There is a great one in Stockholm that is a restored clipper ship from the early 20th century and you can sleep and eat on board. At the time I was there in the 90' s the price was 15.00 US per person but I'm sure that it has gone up. Still a nice deal though and worth checking out. Sweden is a very safe country. I was amazed when we went to the train stations in Sweden and Denmark to see young high school and college students sleeping on the floors and benches in sleeping bags. Most major stations offer lockers and showers for travelers and the kids make the most of this, travelling with nothing more than back packs all over Scandanavia to rock concerts and other entertainment venues. I asked a guard in Stockholm if the kids presented a problem and he told me that several years back there was a murder and the government forbade further sleeping in the stations The kids petitioned the government to relent promising that they would police themselves and make sure that any illegal or violent activity would be reported to the police and they hadn't had single incidence since. Try that in America

Vem kollar på denna video för de inte vet vad man inte får göra här som man får i andra länder?

”Their english is great” rili? tänk juw väri mach

A very nice presentation of my country. Yes, we are a bit corky, but we have a great life here. Thank You!❤️

Fan jag trodde jag hade hittat sven wolters youtube kanal.

At least 40% of the footage was from Gothenburg. I even saw my old apartment in one picture...hehehe.

Oh my god, this video makes me long for summer! I used to live in Stockholm but I moved to an island in the baltic sea called Gotland! (its a Swedish island) it's a very popular destination during summer for other swedes to visit (and lots of other people from around the world). Among lots of other amazing things we have a large medieval town with a big wall surrounding it called Visby, it's definitely worth a visit, they have ships going from Stockholm to Visby all year round but I recommend going during summer :)

THANK YOU FOR TIPS FOR TRAVELING SWEDEN , NICE PLACE TO VISIT NICE SCENERY AS WELL ... LOVE YOUR VIDEO THANK YOU

8:15 If you eat fastfood at Max, McDonald's will never be the same...

Also you should explore outside of Stockholm, first of all your wallet will be a lot more happy, but it also looks different in f.e. skåne.

Mt first time ever in Sweden- I am amazed with the elegance of the city and the people. Really decent but rather expensive though still worth every penny. 👍👍👍❤

This just got recommended to me haha. You are welcome back if you'd like. You seem like a fine fellow and I hope your next visit will leave you with as good of a feeling like it did 4 years ago (I guess).

We are just finishing up a MONTH in Sweden and luckily avoided most of these pitfalls. We did get to try the fermented herring (with full knowledge) at our hosts lake cabin, outside. He even opened the can underwater to ensure he didn't get sprayed. It STINKS! but it was actually quite good when prepared properly. We've really enjoyed our time here and the people are so nice! -Henry

Just went to Sweden in June! It was a beautiful country! Met some long lost relatives through ancestry, and it was wonderful for them to host us. I would definitely love to go again! Thanks for the video. I watched many of your other videos to prepare for the trip. They were so helpful!!

Beautiful insights

As an eastcoast swede, i have never tried härring. I do recomend our spaghetti bolognese though

The rural countys of Sweden, as Dalsland, Jämtland, Småland or Värmland, is well worth a visit. And it's more cheep than Stockholm. Welcome! 🌻🌲🍄

Good don'ts. Here's 2 more: Don't ignore fika. If a swede says it's time for fika or simply just wants fika, you go have fika. Also, don't come here on midsummer. It'll be empty af (unless you've pre-planned so you're celebrating midsummer with friends in Sweden).

Bra lista. (Good list) 😊

Hopefully we will go there in May 2020... Love from Indonesia 😘

Totally agreed with most of what you said. Do avoid the surströmming if you can because it's smell will give you nightmares. And also, Swedes are not very social to strangers but we'll gladly answer your questions.

I come from Sweden, and you nailed every important thing

You got a lot of stuff spot on, good video :)

Talks about being in Stockholm, first few pictures are from Gothenburg :P

Doesn't everyone take their shoes off in their home???!

I am unsure about this *line* concept, in Italy we have a very different albeit more efficient system, it is called: *the buffalo herd.*

im swedish and he is great at talking about what awaits for you in sweden

Thank you for the fair ‘don’ts’, it was enjoyable. ☺️ Next time you stop by Gothenburg, try one of our Gothenburgers. 😋

A note about surströmming: open the can under water. Skärgården

As a native swede I find this video very interesting and entertaining! You have some fun observations and information to share about us and I would say much of it is true :)

4:43 Why is the sail blurred out suddenly?

3:57 Swedish traditional food and Norwegian traditional food can be very good, just depends on the cook and also what you yourself are used to and like.

not every swede has a good accent tho some talk like swenglish for example "aj am kåmming vait" ahahaahah

I haven't been in years, but indeed it is an amazing place, but also very expensive. I love the incredibly long days in summer.

Great video thank you

The traditional food is so good! The main reason to visit!

If you are Swedish you have a special connection to Jörgen.

About the food, I'll never forget how amazingly good was the first home made gravlax I hate there. Plus, I really appreciated the swedish breakfasts. (Being italian, I know a couple of things about good food)

I have visited this country twice. It was a very nice country to visit. The people are really excellent, good human beings. I encourage you all to visit this wounderful country. If you have more time, please do visit the northern part of Sweden (Kiruna etc.,).

Researching for a future Sweden episode!!

I love the smell of Surströmming.. And to eat it is one of the highlights of the year...

I went to Sweden a few years back, I was like 12, and I absolutely loved the pickled herring, truly one of the best things I have ever eaten

Great video :) !

It’s always fun to watch videos about Sweden and judge their accuracy.

I have never been to Sweden but I truly would to. I admire Swedish people, their respect for others and public spirit, their calmness, their being-in-the-vanguard. I think they are one of those few society examples to be followed and to take as a model. Greetings from Italy!

Im from sweden, born and raised. This video was spot on! You really captured everything! Well done 👍👍

Hardcore tip when it comes to surströmming. Open it in a bucket of water. That way the fermented juices doesnt comes out at high pressure through your first hole in the can. Really helps with the smell and makes the whole entrance to the experience more pleasant. Note: Surströmming is a food you have to get used to. The first time you had coffee you probably didnt like it. Same thing here just on a larger scale.

This guy got soo good energy love it btw im swedish and this is so entertaining

Sweden is a fantastic Country! From the lush south all the way up to the most northern Lappland. Visit Lappland, and go see the mountains, for example. It is diverse, and you miss out a lot if you only go to Stockholm, Göteborg or Malmö. We are so much more then those cities!

when swede is drunk. Hell and gore, Chung hop father Allan ley Hell and gore, Chung hop father Allan ley Oh handsome in the hell and tar and hell are in the half and four Hell and gore, Chung hop father Allan ley

This was actually so helpful 😂 I just felt like looking up Swedish food to learn to cook and found this... And btw... a boat called broken¿ 😂😂

seeing the old bills is such a nostalgia trip

I always find foreigners' perspective on Sweden to be very interesting. And, hearing a perfect, Swedish, pronounciation of ikea in otherwise American English is fantastic. :)

Traveled to Sweden with my wife to celebrate our 30th anniversary in June this year, wow what a beautiful country. So much to see and yes things do cost more. FYI Max is a great fast food (hamburger shop) and for groceries try Maxi.

That's nice info

We have a Swedish restaurant in our town, although it’s not as Swedish as it used to be. But we also have a Swedish festival, very Swedish town here, actually ended up in a Swedish newspaper a couple years back
