First Time in SWEDEN 🇸🇪 (Exploring Stockholm)

What are your thoughts on this video? Would you go to Sweden or have you been? Are there any places you think we should visit when here? 🤔

Thanks for watching we love you all! ❤️

[antonbystrom]

I have lived in Sweden all my life, and I have never in my life seen Cops with automatic weapons in Sweden. That was a mind blowing thing to see in your video.

[FenrisUlfven]

Fika is not just about the coffee and pastry, it is also about taking the time to socialize with family, friends and/or colleagues.

[execgrhvx]

Im so proud to be Swedish. Our country is so clean and calming in a way. I've traveled to all countries in Europe but i think Sweden and Austria are the best - for me.

[edunne]

As someone who has been to Stockholm, I would recommed Skansen, WASA ship, lots of museums,

[Eckmayay]

Sweden has so much history so i think you both will be amazed, visiting the capital is a must so im glad you started there, you definitely read up on some the history of sweden, swedish fika is definitely something we do here every day, its been a long tradition of ours

Västerlånggatan is a great streat and im super happy you tried the Budapest pastery, its my all time favorite

Cant wait to see what city you visit next here in Sweden 😊

[Currywurst]

"The streets are so walkable".

Spotted the Americans.

[MisterLindqvist]

The Budapest pastry was invented by a baker in the small Swedish town of Vetlanda, located in the province of Småland.

Great video a lot of positive vibes. thanx. will check out your other videos;) keep up the great work with your smiles. a grateful swede;)

[miltonkonig]

I loved this video! I reacted to the cops going around with weapons in the street, that's not common. I have never seen a cop showing off the weapons in public, ever. And I'm 34. Loved the video and I am looking forward for more. Thanks for sharing! 😍

I get that you would want to see Stockholm, it's our capital Afterall, but Sweden is so much more. The essence of all Nordic countries I would say is our nature and I'll think most of my Nordic brothers and sisters will agree on that statement. Even the smaller towns that have our beautiful nature around itself are absolutely worth visiting. I would recommend visiting Bohuslän (I am really biased about this one) during summer, not now though, autumn and winter it is basically un-habitable. Now is the perfect time for going north when the aurora borealis might start appearing.

To me, as a Swede who was even raised Catholic, hearing you say Sweden "used to be Catholic" is so weird to me 😆Sweden has been Protestant for so long and it is so ingrained in the national identity; the whole Protestant work ethic for example is still a huge thing here even though we are a pretty secular country nowadays.

As to where you should visit... It's probably too late now as this video is six days old, but if you like churches then coming to my hometown Uppsala, which is only an hour or so north of Stockholm by train, might be fun as we have the tallest cathedral in Scandinavia. It also still has a lot of the old Catholic trimmings; for example, the tomb of King Gustav Vasa--considered the "father" of Sweden today--is in what used to be the chapel to the Virgin Mary and so it has a lovely blue ceiling with gold stars. Opposite the cathedral is Gustavianium, a museum that in it's cupola has the second-oldest surviving anatomical theatre (i.e. basically a place to dissect cadavers for students) in the world. However it's currently closed until 2024 for renovations ifaik. Old Uppsala was also an important political and religious centre in the Viking age, so there is a museum in Old Uppsala close to the three royal burial mounds that talks about the older parts of itys history.

I'd also go to Gothenburg as it's a beautiful city, especially in the summer, and there's a fun amusement park there called Liseberg.

4:13 We've got trolls as well and they're more of monsters out in the woods. "Tomtar" are gnomes and usually gnomes were watching over animals and farms and could get very angry if you didn't take care of it. Therefor you put out a plate/bowl of porridge to please them. Later gnomes got mixed with the tradition of Santa Claus, but to this day some people put out a bowl with porridge on Christmas.
5:37 That's a chestnut. You should break it and keep the seed in your pocket for good luck. 😀
Thanks for a very cool video! 👍

[lassehult]

Tomten is very important in Christmas time. To translate it's Santa Claus actually 😀

[marcusisacson]

The old Volkswagen you saw is a collector's car and very uncommon on the streets here as well as in the US...

[ESPirits]

If you like Cathedrals you should visit the Uppsala Cathedral next time, at 119 meters or 390.4 feet it is a sight to behold.

Hi Wyatt and Reyka !
The word FIKA was a code word for drinking coffee with friends and acquaintances. Because one Swedish king prohibited the working class and others to drink coffee.
Skål Tom ☕😄

[JONNARTH]

My beautiful hometown. I hope you really enjoyed it

[Tinnesa]

Since when do cops patrol in gamla stan with automatic weapons?

[Vikinggirl]

I would suggest you must visit the ABBA Museum! ABBA was an epic band that ruled the 70s and 80s. They have sold over 400 million re ords. Only the Beatles have sold more. You can even go on a stage and sing with their avatars!
