sweden reaction, first time reaction to sweden, American react to sweden midnight sun, sweden polar night - เพลง
I live in Sweden. The darkness is nothing to play with, alot of people get depressed. I can vouch for that
nuh uh i also live in sweden and im not depressed💀
Jag blir enormt trött på vintern och jobbigt att vakna upp på morgonen
I love the darkness here in.Sweden i get depressed in the spring
Va surrar du om.
yeah even we danes struggle with it even tho its not as extreme here. but still going to work/school iwhen dark outside and whenever your done its dark agian
I live about 20 minutes from there! We are all very proud of Jonna 🙂
As you should be :)
@@erikmajaron1247 We are 😊
Same here, tho in Örnsköldsviks Kommun inland ^^ its exactly as she describe it
I moved from Germany to Sweden in 2023. Best choice of my life
As a Swede, I feel Jonna Jinton is a national treasure. It might come as a surprise to some that her lifestyle appears almost as exotic to many other Swedes as it does to people from other parts of the world. While the language is the same and we all eat Swedish meatballs, enjoy ice hockey, listen to ABBA and drive Volvos, the southern part of the country (where 90% of the population lives) is in many ways very different from the northernmost part of the country. From a European perspective, Sweden is a large country and especially a very 'extended' one. The distance from the region of Skåne/Scania in the south to the northernmost part of the country is about the same as the distance from Skåne to Sicily, the southernmost region of Italy, so the fact that the climate, landscape and culture of northern Sweden are very different compared to southern Sweden isn't actually that strange.
Yeah, as someone from northern Norway I quite relate to her experience :) It's something that doesn't have to do with country borders but rather the unique experience of living above a certain latitude.
I live in.Sweden and i love the darkness winter is my favorit season 🇸🇪🙂
Jonna has become a national gem here. She is something else 😊
Nice reaction dudes
My home country Sweden🇸🇪
Keep watching Jonnas videos cause this is real in the northen parts of sweden.
Well... She doesn't even live north of the Arctic Circle...
Love your reaction Jonna is an Swedish angel 👼
This is just normality for us. I can tell you guys that Finland became the HAPPIEST country in the world AGAIN... We have won that title for 7 years straight now 😅😂... We live in our dark winters and shiny summers... We would not want to have it in another way.... Learn to appreciate your surroundings, no matter warm or cold... I have been in a temperature as low as - 43 degrees celsius, during my military service in Finnish Lapland. We where out skiing and living in small 8 man tents for 2 weeks and I just LOVED it...I
🇫🇮🤗
Yet Finland have the highest suicide rate in northern Europe. Maybe they leave everyone else to boost the rating?
I'm a Swede born, grown up and living in Sweden yet I can't really stand the darkness during wintertime, it's very difficult for me, I love the summertime though! 🥰🇸🇪
I remember sitting outside in the sun drinking coffee at midnight in Tromsø, Norway. But what Jonna doesn't tell you about are the mosquitos during high summer.
Is that really everywhere, and always, in northern Scandinavia? Here in the "south" (around the Stockholm area), it's mygg only close to natural waters and during sun set, more or less. Also not really every year.
@@herrbonk3635 Not on the coast or in bigger towns, but anywhere near inland water, higher areas seem to avoid them. The northern tundra areas are terrible, or so I have heard. I live in the south near a lake and you can barely go outside during mid summer. Yes, it used to be mostly in the evening but it's all day now. If it's a warm night they are out then as well, and knott, bloody things lol.
@@stephenhowell5611
On a trip from Denmark to the North Cape, Nordkapp, I was camping in my little tent. In evening there was so many mosquitos, that I had to run around in full motorcycle gear, included helmet, and raise my tent. 😂
@@herrbonk3635
I grew up on one of the islands at the far end of the coast in Western Finnmark. Mosquitoes were never a problem for us, but you won't travel far into the straits or fjords before mosquitoes become a problem. The solution is then to either light a bonfire, which helps a bit, or to go out in a boat. It is fantastic on the lake at night when the sun is out and the wind is calm. It also helps to use mosquito spray, but for me it spoils the experience a bit because the spray smells synthetic.
My experience is that it can differs a lot from place to place where the mosquitos are. I am in Jämtland (mid Norrland, Sweden) on a farm every summer and it is very rare that the mosqitos bother me. Normally they are not out in day time and not when you are in open places. I can have my window open during the night without no mosquito coming in.
But of course on some places in the forest they are. Then you cover with clothes and they do not bother me.
There is something called winter depression here in sweden as we dont get enought vitamin d from the sun + the adjustment to less sunlight (plus its freaking cold and annoying in the winter). Not everone gets it ofc but its a common thing to feel down during the winter.
🇸🇪 here 🙂. Sweden is a very elongated country. From the northernmost point to the southernmost, it is almost twice as far as the corresponding distance in Nigeria. This naturally means that there is quite a big difference between southern and northern Sweden. In the south, we don't really have that enormous difference in light conditions, although there is still quite a difference between summer and winter.
Also, despite its very northern location, Scandinavia has a relatively mild climate compared to, for example, America. This is partly due to the fact that the Scandinavian peninsula has seas on both the west and east sides, but above all on the Atlantic ocean current known as the Gulf Stream. This transports warm water from the Gulf of Mexico up along the east coast of the USA across the Atlantic north of Scotland and up along the Scandinavian west side.
i love that people from other countries react to mine it makes me fell better.
You 2 are lovely❤ Beautiful couple🥰 Love these videos, as a Swede.
You really should listen to her singing
"Du gamla du fria" (the national anthem of Sweden) here on TH-cam. I'M CRYING 🥹😭 so beautiful I can't handle 🇸🇪
This was so beautiful!! Thank you!! 😊
I was born and raised in Sweden and I love the winter season here ❄️🩵
I'm Swedish, this is real 🤷♀️ this is what the north is like. Hope you visit some day 😊 Take a boat called Hurtigrutten. It's a beautiful tour with a lot of scenery and wildlife.
A beautiful tour in Norway, actually.
I love your reactions. Greetings from Sweden.
You are right! The climat in Northern Sweden and Northern Norway are similar. ..so this COULD be in Norway... But this is in Northern Sweden 🙂
Nature is beautiful everywhere. It makes me sad that so many people live so far from nature that you feel like it is something that belongs to the past or in a fantasy movie. Everyone should have access to nature. It is our home.
Love from Sweden 💛💙
The first time I visited Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland), I was shocked that I could read easily outside at 1am or later. Never got fully dark in the mid-summer. I can't imagine staying optimistic and happy on the other side when it's dark all day.
you don't depend on sunlight for happiness as easy as that...also learn to relax and don't stress your way through things. Why do you think the scandinavian phsyche is more chill and put more focus on crafts/nature and fika etc?
@@Solus749
Exactly. It's also no use getting upset about things when you have to live close in cramped houses through long, cold winters, which our ancestors had to manage, more cramped than we live today. If people from the north had not been calm, they would have stabbed each other with knives long before spring.
I know many other Swedes struggle with the winters here but ive never had an issue with the darkness, To me it's just a part of the yearly cycle and the balance in light and dark with summer feels natural, 3 hours of sunlight in the winter and 3 hours of darkness in the summer
Yeah it can be abit gloomy during winter and its abit annoying when the sun rises at 11 and sets at 2 when you have to do something outside but its never for a really extended period of time and the worst parts usually only last a few week where i live. I can definitely understand why many struggle with it though and for someone born closer to the equator i can only imagine
There is no place like Sweden 🙂
Wow, your reactions really moves me. Thank you for reminding me of how amazing my home really is! Just like the rest of this miraculous sphere we all call home. 🙏🏻🥰
Vernal equinox occured just days ago, the days now increase with about 5 minutes each day around Gothenburg. Up north (in Kiruna) each day grows almost 8 minutes longer... All due to Earth's nice little tilt 🌍
I wish you all a wonderful day!
We, of course, do not all live like this. But my accommodation is not far away. But I may not "enjoy" as much. However, I love my country and the landscape I live in just as much. And yes, I see the Northern Lights. Drilling holes in the ice and fishing. But don't bathe. That girl is too tough for me. But still... travel a little further north in Sweden... Sweden stretches between Polar (far north of the Arctic Circle) and maritime climate in the south. You could call it bipolar if you want to joke. Did/do you know? That the Northern Lights have sound? Not always audible, but sometimes. Hard to describe. But sometimes like "static electricity" almost inaudible, but clear and registered, recorded, It is so indescribably mysterious.
welcome to sweden ure so welcome to visit weather its winter or summer:)
as a northern swede and a neighbour to jonna next town over i can say that this is the best place ever to live in
Im Swedish and depending on where in Sweden you are it will get worse. Northern Sweden is in the winter dark , cold and in the summer the sun barley goes down
Jonna is swedish national treasure ❤️
yeah, living close to the artic circle is a bit special, playing golf at 1am with full sunlight during summer, and going for lunch in the winter and it's barely dusk
Believe in my friends Sweden is amazing
Jonna is an incredibly talented film maker, it's not a coincidence you get emotional watching her video, that's exactly what she aimed for.
I live more towards the middle of Sweden and it's not nearly as extreme as this, even at it's brightest I still get like 3-4 hours of darkness. Correspondingly, I get a few hours of sunlight even in the middle of winter. Of course, you lose energy in the winter, that's only natural. Winter depression is not uncommon although taking vitamin D does help with that, as well as some light therapy, among other things.
Dealing with the almost constant light is easier as Jonna pointed out but the F****** birds won't stop singing for several months in summer which really gets on my nerves. :P
By the way. This year it was a especially cold winter. We had as low as - 52,7 degrees celsius.... Thats cold.... 😊
I love traveling and getting to know other cultures and languages but I would never ever move from my home country Sweden! You should know that Sweden is one of the biggest countries in Europe and very loooooong so nature is very different if you are in the south, the middle, in the north, on the west coast or the east coast.
We have the same winter darkness in Canada, but I'm far enough south that we still get 6 hours or so of daylight. I personally love the dark half of the year. It's easier to sleep and is so much calmer than spring and summer. (I hate spring.)
You should come visit! You are welcome!
Ahhh. Swing it makes me miss it.. I live in the States but that's home sweet home.. even further north..
Worked up there (I live in the middle of Sweden normally) and it´s true. I love the darkness in the winter but lots of people get depressed during that season.
It´s not for the weak!
Living in the arctic may be magical, but it has it's challenges. I am Icelandic and my only experience of Africa is over 2 years of flying for the Red Cross in Angola in 1990-1991, in the middle of a civil war.
My takeaway from that experience: Living in a tropical paradise is HARDER than living in Iceland, at the edge of the survivable world. Another takeaway: Africans are tough, resilient and amazingly content with very little quality of life. I do not know why Africans are their own worst enemies, it just seems to be a fact.
Me too❤
Hello from Sweden. The northern part is the most beautiful. But living in that kind of condition is not great. Having so much snow and the mountains/northern lights is worth it for alot of people but living further south makes a big difference in the amount of sun you get. Its still colder and short days in the winter but nothing as drastic as in the video.
😍😍😍
You only get the midnight sun in the far north but even as far south as Stockholm it does not get completely dark in the night around the summer solstice, there is some twilight. These nights have a distinct name in Swedish: White nights.
One thing to point out here is that the light/darkness part is true for most parts of Sweden, minus the polar nights and midnight sun.
yes its like crazy
I would love to live there for about a year to experience summer and winter there.
where did the sound go at about 9min?
What happened to the sound between 09:10 and 10:36 ?😳🤔
Such sweet people, come visit Sweden, but if you come in winter bring vitamin D from a doctor.
Travel 4-5 hours north by car from Swedens capital, Stockholm to the northern parts of Sweden (Norway and Finland has the same contrasts) and this becomes reality .
Its like a paradise really....but there are much fewer jobs to find there
You only make it to umeå wth a car in those hours you mention, it takes almost 17 hours from Stockholm to the most northern town in sweden
I love winter or... I do when we actually get one. Living in the city, snow don't stay that long and then it becomes something every Swede has a burning hate for 'slask'. So, i love real winter and im indifferent to city winter.
🇸🇪🇧🇻🇫🇮 amazing nature
Yee
So we need Xtra d-vitamin in the winter
finland even darker
No one on earth eats more D-Vitamine pills then the people who live up north do.
:)
And I love you too
Why should this be so strange? You have all this in your own home country! Alaska: Fairbanks, is just south of the Arctic Circle and has exactly the same conditions.
home conditions? where do you think they are from?
How the hell did you think they are American?
@@Nipponing "AMERICAN REACTS" and if you look under their "about" it says USA.
@@RichFrye Home country - USA. Assumes they live in a state other than Alaska.
@@klaraskymningskronan Doesn't say that on this video, unless they changed the title. But also, how are they American when they sound like that? I guess they grew up with family that immigrated recently then.
Please react BNT 418
We are Vikings
What happened to the sound?
You muted parts of the video.
As a Swede i cant understand why americans 6:35 are so hysteric. Have they never heard abouth the world outside their own? What you see as exotic is our normal life, and nothing to be upset abouth.
You send a message that americans dont respect other people that lives in other countries.
Not funny att all during the dark months.
You go up 6 a.m. (Dark outside). Work inside a factory, in my case. Go home 3:30 p.m. (dark outside)
The first time you see the light outside is during the weekend 😵💫
Sweden is like the most southern of all Scandinavia and .......
nope thats Denmark
Jonna for prime minister
You keep talking over here voice. So...
this was a bad react video cause the sound dissepeard from 09:08 to 10:37 in the video👎
so pls record and do a better reaction video next time so we have sound all the time 👎
Ummm they’re not in Africa? But I bet neither are you
Even light skincolour doesn't compensate for lack of sunlight. The reason for Swedish lack of humor?
We have aloot of humor. Dark humor 😊
@@soderlund3610Don't tell Swedes! They will get even more depressed. If the others think they gather for a funeral, its a party! Greetings from Holland.
