I've seen some of your videos the last weeks and i find them intressting, since im a Swede living in Germany (Hamburg) since 10 years. I have some simulair references, as you but in Germany.
Would be nice to see / hear you interacting maybe with some Swedish people etc. What you think about food culture, music culture, work culture e.t.c. Regards!

Je heb een beetje gelijk een klein beetje ik ben nu 76 en heb het hier naar mijn zin ik wil niet weg alleen er is wel een nadeel een regering die altijd gelijk heeft en alles beter weet en heel soms zou ik liever in zweden zitten van wege de ruimte en de rust dat mis ik soms maar meer ook niet wel een leuke video groeten uit Roosendaal Hans.👍👍👍👍👍🍀

Funny I felt this way when going to Carrefour in Belgium and Spain in comparison with the offerings here. AH is good for Dutch standards but I find the variety of items in The Netherlands to be quite poor. I've lived in Stockholm for just a few months in 2012 and I didn't feel the largest supermarkets there were too different from here, maybe even larger, actually (unless you compare with Makro in NL).

Leuk om te horen de verschillen van Zweden en NL. Zelf vind ik de luxe erg overdreven, veel dingen heb je niet eens nodig. Ook de drukte, in een bos loop je zelden alleen en veel lopen ook nog te bellen en zien een ree niet staan. Vraag me dan af waarom ze in het bos lopen. Daarom proberen we ieder jaar naar Zweden te gaan.

Ik ga komende zomer voor het eerst terug naar Nederland na 3, 5 jaar en ik ben heel nerveus om te gaan. In woon in Norrbotten in the middle of nowhere en ben die drukte niet meer gewend. Vind het maar spannend. Ik mis de AH wel hoor, hier in het noorden is er zeker gebrek aan variatie.

Yes.. I think that something have changed after 10 years?
Yeah, the same in sweden, but if one live in sweden one dont notice the dayly/anual change becuse it comes little by little?
And I belive that Sweden looks at Netherland on how to manage the trafic situation, mostly in our citys.. tada, separate different travelers and isolate car trafic to there own lanes, giving more space for public transportation, bicycles and pedestrians?

I still remember for 10-20 years ago at the peak of our mega mall expansion.. one could by everything frome the whole world in the same store!
The thing was, every big busines chain did the same, more goods frome the whole world was a thing at the begining!
Later they experienced that it was expensive and a logistical nightmare!
It was this.. swedes was buying mostly "standard items and grocerys", so those malls that cut out 20% of items and grocerys didnt lose any customers!
Soo, today one still can travel to those big malls, but they have split in to warehouses with different brands.
