Try Glögg. Promise, will not disappoint. Serve it with a bit of raisin and almond in your cup. Though not mandatory som prefer it that way. Favorably, try with both of it in the glögg and without. It is good either way.

They didnt explain allemansrätten very good. he meaning of Allemansrätten simply is every person’s right to access and roam, without disturbing or destroying, Swedish nature and countryside. You have the right to hike, bike and pick berries in the woodlands and forests. The Right of Public Access regulates what you can and can’t do, more is explained below. The core meaning of Allemansrätten is “freedom”. Free to peacefully explore without obstacles or hindrance, however, there are limitations and it is important to know what is covered. Under this right, you don’t need permission to cross private land, especially to reach a body of water, such as lakes or rivers. However, you need to ask the land owner for permission if you plan to do outdoor activities on their property.

”Allemansrätten” (every man’s right) is more extensive than what was said in the video. You can actually camp for one night on someone's property, provided it is out of sight and hearing of those who live there, and of course you must not behave in a disruptive manner, destroy anything or pick flowers, fruits or berries that grow on someone's private plot. You can also, for example, have a picnic or swim everywhere except where it is expressly prohibited. Wild-growing berries, fruits, nuts and mushrooms can be picked almost everywhere as long as it is not commercial picking. You could say that ”allemanrätten” is a right with accompanying obligations. Do not break branches from growing trees, if you camp or make a fire, leave the area in at least as good condition as it was when you arrived. In certain weather conditions, it may be prohibited to make fires (usually this is announced in notices from the local authorities). Of course you are not allowed to camp or make a fire, for example, in fields with growing crops, or on land where there are grazing cattle. Do not disturb birds or other animals. Non-commercial fishing is allowed along the coasts and in some lakes and waterways and with easily available and cheap fishing licenses in many other places. Hunting is permitted only for the hunting right holder (usually the landowner), and additionally requires a hunter's license. Most of the land in Sweden is NOT owned by the state but is privately owned, however, ”allemanrätten” applies regardless. To me, ”allemansrätten” is perhaps the single greatest freedom we have here that you in the US don't have!

We have same in Finland, "jokamiehenoikeudet" (Every mans rights) (though recently changed to "jokaisenoikeudet" (Everyones rights), keeping up with times.) I wanted to say that too, they made it sound that private lands are no-no, but thats the whole point of those rights! I think pretty much everywhere publicly owned land is free to roam (After all, thats what publicly owned means...) Youre free to go and camp on privately owned land and forests, just not going to anyones backyard or fields &c. Free to gather berries, mushrooms, fish &c., just not to cut trees, hunt without landowners permission, kill plants or destroy nature &c.

Nuts are not covered by the allemansrätten. It is forbidden to pick acorns and nuts unless you have asked the landowner. Then I also think it's misleading to say that it's ok to camp on private property as long as you can't be seen or heard, it can be misunderstood as being allowed to camp in someone's yard, as long as you hide behind the garage and are quiet. Instead, say that it's ok to camp on private land, as long as it's far from residential buildings and their private yard.

My grandma and grandpa would, while they were still young enough, hold Surströmmingsskiva, (a Surströmming dinner). They would always offer me something else if I wanted, just some pasta with sauce or something, but over the years I eventually tried it and the taste was not bad at all. I would describe the smell as a nasty egg fart, but if you open the cans properly (under water) and rinse it many times, it is not that bad. There are also extra things you add to the surströmming such as raw onions which helps dampen or at least hide the smell of the fish. The taste itself is more salty than anything, and the rumor has it that the origin was some Merchant who wanted to cut costs and used less salt than needed to properly cure and preserve the fish. It would be good when they sold it but go bad faster but by then they'd be long gone with the money. But a year later some villagers found the merchant again and asked if he had some more of that fish because they'd like some. And that's how the tradition was born. But that's just a rumor, many stories with slight variations exist about the origins of Surströmming.

Dear ladies, just a few things to add to this: 1. Swedish language is not that difficult, especially for an English speaker. The syntax is very, very similar to that of English. Of course there are hurdles, the phonetics for example, or the gendered nouns (en words and ett words), but in my own experience pitch is not that difficult, one tends to grasp it intuitively. 2. Fika is so ubiquitous, so much a part of their lives, that I heard the word used as a verb. Like: we will fika. The best, most magical video made of Sweden is by a photographer/film maker/silver smith lady called Jonna Jinton, who lives in the North. it has 18 million views as of today and I think you'd really love it: kzitem.info/news/bejne/lLCKuGiXsnZ4Zm0

Yeah, English & Swedish are actually related languages from the same language family called Germanic, just different side branches originally ( West & North ), and then (Old) English was also massively influenced later on by the closely related Old Norse language of the Viking settlers in N. & E. England and also the ancestor language of Danish, Norwegian and Swedish as well as Icelandic and Faroese of the Faroese Islands North of Scotland. So there are actually a lot very similar basic words compared to their English counterparts - often just within a simple sound shift or a slightly different spelling - as well as a fairly recogniseable grammatical structure in many respects - almost like some sort of simplistic older Pseudo English without the use of "do" and "-ing" with verbs at the basic level. Check out the brilliant video called "Viking Influence on the English Language" from Langfocus to see how this mysterious situation with similiar & "parallel" languages between Scandinavia and England / Britain occured.

You have a coffee, tea or even a drink and - if you want - a cookie or cake and just spend some time together. Glögg is a form of mulled wine but often sweeter than other versions. You often put some almonds or hazelnuts and raisins in the cup to soak in too. It's very sweet but if it's a very cold day a cup of hot glögg really warms you up.

Hello from sweaden , Great video ! 👏🌸 So you asked wat happens to the medical costs when you turn 18 . I can explain it like this (sorry for the long explanation). We have what is called a high-cost cover for both prescription drugs and care. So a doctor's visit costs about SEK 100-300 depending on the specialty and about SEK 120-300 per day when you are in hospital. If you call an ambulance that takes you to hospital and you see a doctor, the total cost is SEK 350. When a person has paid patient fees up to the high-cost cover's ceiling of SEK 1,300, the rest is free. This is calculated in 12-month intervals, which means that if you have reached the ceiling in 6 months, the rest of the year is free. This is the same with medicine, although you have to get up to SEK 2,600.

Not true, the maximum cost for "öpen vård" in sweden in 2023 is 1300 kr. And for "slutenvård" then it's 120 kr per day in 2023. In 2024 the fee for "öppen vård" will in all regions be raised to 1400 kr sadly. For the specialists care you are correct tho it's wildy variating but still only 1300 kr per year per 2023. For medicine it was in 2023 highered from 2400 kr to 2600 kr :/

As a 74 year old American Bi who has been living in Europe for the last 35 years, the first ten with my female German lover who I moved from California to Germany with (she left me for another woman) and the last 25 in Sweden with my Swedish husband (GASP, just taking a breath of air so I can continue this run-on), I can vouch VERY positively for Swedish socialized health care. Despite potentially long waiting times, the medical care is excellent. For adults, payment for medical treatment has an annual cap - quite reasonable. Say $175.00 a year. After reaching this cap, the rest of the year is at no cost. Three years ago I spent 10 days in the hospital. My entire fee? 90 Swedish Kronors, or TEN dollars, the cost of my meals. By the way, I was receiving specialist care. As an American, I would suggest prioritizing visiting Norway and Sweden, before Denmark. Denmark is in the forefront of ecological living, reminds me geographically of the American Midwest and is however sadly racist. One of our American visitors prioritized Copenhagen having heard of “Beautiful, beautiful Copenhagen” all his life. When he visited with us in Stockholm (where we lived at the time), he wailed, “Why didn’t anyone tell me?! I would never have wasted my time in Copenhagen if I’d known!” Stockholm, by the way has a lively LGBTQ community and Pride occurs in August. Norway is heart stopping and awesome. I cried the first time I visited, overwhelmed by it’s beauty. I refer to Sweden as “paradise” and I live in Dalarna, the paradise of paradise. Should you ever decide to visit you would be welcome to be shown around Dalarna with us. We live in a tiny village of 650 people in the middle of lakes and beauty and…No. We don’t know everyone 🤣! Also, we may be old, but we are not ancient nor “set in our ways” - even while my language dates me. It is NOT true that visitors outside of the EU may not visit Sweden!!

Hello I liv on one of the large Islands, Öland. Somethings not mentioned in the movie is the rich Viking history we have here. Numerous stone formations with runic inscripstions, hidden burial grounds, and excavations of village, traditionelly surrounded by walls. I was born in the part of Sweden "Östergötland" where ancient Sweden was formed. Otherwise, a very good summery. Did they say anything about swedens second language, English. In school från young age (8-9). Next year, I'll turn 60 but feel like 50. We can sertainly brag about ourselves, or is it my age that allows me to. I love Sweden, It's an amazing country that takes care of both children and elderly. You asked about what happens after the age of 18 in healthcare. We pay about 200-500 kronor. For a doctor's appointment or for surgery. Medication is free after a sum of 2800 kronor for 6 months. And after that, it's free again after 6 months. AND we dont whate for surgery for one year. We have emergency department! However, non-urgent planned procedures are put on a waiting list. That we Swedes would opt for more private alternatives is nonsense. It's statistically at a low level. ❤

22:00 - Legal age of drinking alcohol and Systembolaget. Someone suggested to me once (aka I have no formal evidence for this claim) that the reasoning behind the different legal ages was that you could go to a bar to drink when 18, where the bartender and people around you would be able to keep an eye on you so you didn't drink too much or at least help take care of you (or call an ambulance) if things went badly. You'd learn about the sensation of being drunk, if you were an aggressive drunk or one of the mellow people, as well as if you get plastered after one beer or if you can chug a full bottle of wine with barely an issue. All this so that when you turn 20 and can buy alcohol to bring home you will be more aware of your limitations and less likely to drink yourself into a case of alcohol poisoning. Nowadays though, most bars, pubs and clubs will have an minimum age of 20 or even above because they know that an inexperienced 18yo kid getting drunk for the first time is likely to be loud, obnoxious, not really aware of their own actions and in general just be more of a nuisance than they are worth. Plus if it's a pub the people there might be more interested in taking a beer or a glass of wine and talk and not very fond of some loud, drunk 18yo kid running around picking a fight. Systembolaget: Back in the olden days Swedes had a very problematic stance to alcohol. Rumors say that people would distill alcohol out of their grain instead of making food and that it was one reason for the famine. Then people got hold of the potatoes which could be grown easier than the grain and would also give more alcohol than the grain, so people would use part of their farm to grow potatoes for alcohol (and for food) while still have plenty of grain over for bread and food. So Potatoes saved the day! Alcoholism was so rampant that the King had to basically give people foodstamps, but for alcohol. So people could get drunk on weekends but still be sober to work on weekdays. Which might be a reason why Swedes behave similarly even now with barely an afterwork beer but can go out, party and get shitfaced on the weekend. But, the king's limitations on Alcohol lasted and eventually evolved into Systembolaget, a Stade-owned monopoly which is the only way to import alcohol to Sweden. It is not for profit though and actively have campaigns to drink moderately. It also have stores in less profitable areas (low population density) and you can always go ask them to ship some specific beer or wine over from another store. You can even ask them to specifically import some exclusive Whiskey or similar and they will do their best, but there might be limits that if you want a specific beer they will ask you to buy a crate for it to be worth their time. They take profit from high-population areas and help fund stores in other regions. They also have rules such that they cannot have fridges to sell chilled beer as that might tempt people into drinking a cold beer on a warm day. Also they cannot really favor one brand over another so if one beer can be sold chilled then all beers must be available for equal treatment. I don't mind Systembolaget really, but might be in favor of slightly longer opening hours on weekends.

nice summary but just to clarify for people this is the legal serving age, there exists no legal drinking age in Sweden, Norway and Denmark so legally you can drink alcohol at any age, bars and restaurants are however not allowed to serve people under a certain age (18 in Sweden and Norway and 16-18 in Denmark depending on the amount of alcohol in the beverage).

As a Swedish intelligence historian, a thing that is misunderstood constantly is Swedens role during WW2. When Finland was attacked in 1939 by Russia in the Winter War, Sweden sent 10.000 volunteers as well as all modern equipment to Finland to aid its defence. However, rhar ment that when Germany attacked Denmark and Norway in April of 1942, that ment that the Swedish defence was depleted and only had old guns and limited amounts of Ammo. So Sweden had to conceed the Germans demands to avoid getting concurred too. But, Sweden had ab ace up it's sleeve and cracked the Germans encryption codes and sent the decoded messages to the Allies. There is so much to tell. You also know that Sweden is one of the largest highly sophisticated weapons manufacturers in the world. We make the best subs, armored vehicles (CV90), tanks Strv 122, Archers systems, anti tank weapons, fighter jets JAS39 ,and so on...

Hello from the middle of Skåne county in Sweden! Fun to see your reaction to that flood of information. Even in the short time since this info film some things have change. Apart from crime and shooting going wilder than ever before, actual fact is the moose is close to becoming endangered. There is also african swine flu raging among the wild boar population in some regions that has forced authorities to actually close off large areas so it doesn't spread. And that museum whale (I actually got to see as a kid in one of my favorite museums growing up just outside Stockholm) is probably the only sperm whale that isn't a sperm whale... Glögg is sweet and spicy wine. You heat it up and enjoy it in small cups and add raisins and peeled almonds if you like. Blossa release a new flavor every year. You should try it with Annas pepparkakor (seriously good gingerbread cookies). The food presenter didn't mention the husmanskost or the odd fascination we have with odd food pairings. Swedes not only love pineapple on pizza, but we put chicken, curry powder, banana, and peanuts on it as well. A modernized version of a popular 80's dish Flygande Jakob. Debbie should definitely try the Flygande Jakob (Flying Jacob) recipe. You will either love it or hate it. Just like salt liqorice candy spiced up with ammonium chloride. It's huuuge in the nordic countries.

And then we have elk, deer, badger, hares, squirrels, deer, wild boar to name just a few of all the animals found in our nature.

Extremely nitpicky. :) A bigger one was when they talked about the freedom to roam, they said it has to be public land. No. It also apply on private property as long as it's not cultivated or right next to someones house.

Another nitpick is that the royal house has "almost no legislative power". The word "almost" is wrong - the royal family has no legislative power whatsoever. Current king is the first one that has no power. So basically it's just nitpicks. If you don't remember the wrong details (and the video has so much information that you probably won't), then the video is perfect. But if you are a Swede, you notice those things and don't want anyone to remember them.

There is also a politically loaded nitpick. Its said that 60% of Sweden is covered in forest. However, the owners of the properties have been given the right to dictate what forest is. Basically, Sweden is covered in commercial "tree plantations" that are called forest (there is some guidance on ecological diversity, so the owners aren't fully left to their own devices)). Whether it's correct or not to call it forest is a debate (also what does it really take for an area to be a forest). I have no answer to it, and I know too little about it, but its a debate worth having. Don't get me wrong - a "normal" person won't usually see/know the difference.

Actually...they are WRONG about the "Allemansrätten" (Right of Public Access). You HAVE access to be on private land! THAT'S THE POINT! This is how it works; "'the public has access to private land where no damage is likely to result and prohibition would be unreasonable"'. You can camp anywhere you want....in Sweden for one or two nights. (Not caravans dough....that's not real camping anyway) ;-) You can pick berries in the woods, climbing or hiking, fishing is free with rods along the coast and in the five largest lakes, you have to buy a "fishing-card" in many smaller lakes but that doesn't cost much. The nature is available for everybody. With a few EXCEPTIONS like peoples GARDENS, MILITARY AREAS and SUCHLIKE, and with these "right to roam" come responsibilities; that is, an OBLIGATION neither to harm, disturb, litter, nor to damage wildlife or crops.

So not quite all the way from Canada to Mexico, but pretty durn close. Of course, climate-wise it's more like half of Oregon, up through Washington and then a large chunk of Canada (including reindeer - what you guys call caribou). No polar bears, though.

Hello! Northern Sweden here....Thank you for your sense not to make another youtube clip where you vomit over surströmming. It was painful to watch before, but now there is a shortage of Baltic herring, so now it's even harder to see people wasting food by eating it the wrong way. I liken it to someone putting 3 cloves of garlic in their mouth and saying they don't understand how people can eat garlic. Surströmming should almost be seen as a condiment on top of a special hard bread with potatoes, red onion, sour cream and maybe some chives. No one eats anchovies in quantities either. There is only one way to eat it, and that is in Sweden, with people who like it and know how to eat it. Glögg (Mulled wine), on the other hand, is a good idea. It's a Christmas drink, so wait until December. It should be heated and preferably enjoyed together with gingerbread cookies.
