      And most Swedes have their Summer vacation in the month of July. However, many go abroad during this time, as Swedes are obsessed with travelling, so many may not be aware that there are so much to see and experience in Sweden during the Summer.

I was hoping to travel to Sweden this summer since I love it there but have only ever traveled there in Winter, so think year wanted to during July/August where the heat is unbearable where I live. If you have any tips on what are the best summer months to go experience a true Swedish experience let me know. (Anything outside of Stockholm)

    I took Swedish language courses for 7 years and then visited Stockholm, Uppsala & Vimmerby. Not everyone spoke English and it gave me the opportunity to speak Swedish. It was exciting to be able to read the Swedish language when English wasn’t available plus the Swedes wait instead of jumping right in like North Americans tend to do, and it gave me the time to answer them in Swedish!💖

    like Sweden, we have several recycling bins in Japan as well. Paper, glass, PET bottles, cans etc are separate. Hopefully the world will take on the importance of recycling. Thoughtfulness may save the planet (and you don't have to be a tree hugger to do it) :)

    • @Kateyangyuqing
      @Kateyangyuqing ปีที่แล้ว

      In Australia it recently (the last couple of years) came to light that most of our recycling was actually being shipped overseas to China on return ships - as the ships would otherwise be going back empty so it's much cheaper for the "recycling" companies to do that. Then China basically said "we've got enough of our own waste, not taking anymore of yours". So it all started getting stockpiled in warehouses and tons end up in landfill. SO disheartening. Sadly heaps of Australians don't even realise how backwards and regressive a lot of things like that are here. In most European countries, there are multiple recycling bins, and if you try to put the wrong thing in the wrong recycling box, you'll get fined. The reason we only have one? Because it never mattered in the first place - it was all just being shipped off somewhere else for other people to deal with.

    That part about Swedes support vegans brought me a chuckle and a memory from 2008. I'm a native Swede, and in that year, I and the small software company that I worked for went to a rural conference center outside of Simrishamn in Scania in the south of Sweden for a company conference. The staff there had probably never heard of vegetarians before.
    I especially recall lunch one of the days, when they served some meat sausage with "rotmos" (a mashed mix of potatoes, rutabaga and carrots) and mustard. I'm not a vegeterian, but I had two colleagues that were, and they got the same dish just without the sausage. They were not especially amused. :)
    So, vegan and vegetarian options exist on pretty much every restaurant in the big cities, but be prepared for that the opposite is possible in the countryside.

    Damn inspiring stuff! Sorry for commenting on a three year old clip, but you went to the wrong side of Sweden. Well, maybe not wrong, but the westcoast (Stockholm is located on the eastcoast) would be my prime travel tip. The water here is salty, not brackish and the seafood is cheaper and taste better. Our archipelago looks a bit different with the famous pink Bohus granite, the perfect backdrop for spectacular sunsets. I do believe you should really, really Google a bit about the Gothenburg/Bohuslän region with the city of Gothenburg, Lysekil, Smögen, Marstrand and so on being summer hotspots. It´s also very close to the Capital of Norway, Oslo, so that to can easily be included if you visit for a few days.

      Räkmacka has boiled eggs, majonäs, räkor (shrimps), dill, lemon, and lettuce on soft bread with butter (wheat or rye). Toast skagen has skagenröra on toast, basically. So a few things in common (if you check skagenröra). There are other similar smörgåsar (open sandwiches) as well, of course, although not as ubiquitous.

    Thank you so much for the excellent video. I have been watching videos about Sweden for a while now. I have never been there, but I have been to Northern Europe. Some of the Swedish people say that it is rude to talk to strangers and that is something that is not appreciated in Stockholm or anywhere else in Sweden. This is more of a custom than an attitude according to what these Swedish videos say. Did you come across any of this during your trip. Perhaps the Swedish are different in the summertime.

So I’ll do my best for her because she LOVES her Figs. She keeps them in a spot that receives good broken sunlight daily, she uses fertilizer she gets from her earthworm farm and I’ve even seen her gently cleaning the leaves with a water spray bottle. She also makes sure they are in a position where a wall supports their weight so they can grow up without bending over. I hope that helps... comment again and I’ll show her to see if I missed anything :) Matt

      I think in any situation you can find ways to make a destination budget friendly. You can stay at hostels, cut back on dining out and walk around instead of paying for transport. What we experienced in our itinerary wasn’t budget stuff - it was all really nice so our experience was a fancy one. I guess I’d say it’s comparable to going to places like New York, Paris and Tokyo as opposed to places like Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia.
