FINALLYYYY, been waiting for this since the day this series started can’t believe we’re finally here

[linajurgensen]

I think you Swedes know that we Germans love your country but I can’t emphasize enough how much Sweden means to me. A country with rich history in literature, film and art of any kind, beautiful and very friendly people wherever you go and ultimately stunning nature, that draws tourists from all over the continent to your home. I miss going on holiday in Sweden with all of my heart.🇸🇪❤

6:50 those Swedes are actually wrong about it having to be public land. You can also walk in private forests. That's the entire point of Allemansrätten. They probably meant that but didn't explain it very well. I'm a Finn but I know this very well.

[marekfalda]

I’m from Poland and I love our nordic brothers. I wish relations between our countries were closer.

[Botsmannen]

Wien you were talking about the “Allemansrätten” or the right to roam Jonas says kinda in passing that it has to be public land, it does not have to be public land as in owned by the state it just has to not be land that when walked upon would disturb the nature and the calm for the landowner.
So no walking on farmland or walking right by someone’s house

[ivankehayov]

I feel like, by the end of these series, this is going to be a 2-hour long talk show with interviews of at least half the population of each country.

[jeffschlundt]

I really like these longer episodes that don't try to pack everything into a hyper-paced dash.

I was in Sweden in 2006 and one thing I find is that Swedes are friendlier than many say. In one week, I must have talked to at least 4 or 5 people. When I asked a lady for directions, not only did she help but walked part of the way with us and talked to us in English. She asked where I was from. Later at an outdoor concert, an older man looked at me and spoke Swedish. When I answered in English, he spoke excellent English. He also asked where I was from. They all knew Minnesota which I call a Swedish colony. I had conversations with a guy on a boat and I was on the land on an island. He was very cool and friendly. Unlike Germany or the UK, I didn't have to explain where Minnesota was.

7:07 This is actually incorrect. Allemansrätten is in effect also on private land with the exception of private gardens, the immediate vicinity of a dwelling house and land under cultivation. Restrictions also apply for nature reserves and other protected areas.

"Real swedes not like those 5th generation minnesotans." Ouch, why you gotta do me like that barbs :, (

"That's all for Sweden... Switzerland is coming up next!"
Neutrality intensifies!

[KaptenN]

When you said that Sweden is in Scandinavia you marked out the entire Nordic. Iceland and Finland are Nordic countries, but they aren't part of Scandinavia. Scandinavia is only Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Fennoscandia is Finland, Norway and Sweden and you got the Scandinavian peninsula right with just Sweden and Norway.

Also, I'd like to point out that Jantelagen is a cultural thing, not an actual law.

[bobby-viio]

As a native Indonesian speaker who used to study and live in Sweden for almost 3 years, the Swedish pitch is a nightmare. After I started to pick up the language, I was super confused when we started to thanked the ducks at the church. Turns out, depending on the pitch, the word "anden" can both means ducks or holy spirits haha! Because my language is pitchless and flat, my Swedish could only be understood perfectly by the Finns. The way we speak Swedish are exactly the same, totally flat hahaha!

[josuibarretxe]

With Sweden we could say that we are “In the final countdown”. Keith, I can’t believe you forgot Europe, one of the most iconic band in the 80’s.

Fun fact: you’d be watching the Swaziland episode rn if they didn’t change their name to Eswatini

[charlotteeeee]

Learned a lot from this video. I will be moving in Sweden this May of 2023. I'm so excited! See you soonest SWEDEN!

The fact that Barbs has 30 mins documentaries shows how much dedication he puts into this and how much the channel has grown. This also means that I hope there is a 2nd part of the Chile video, because it only lasts 10 mins 😅

[Random-obdc]

He really does pronounce the Swedish Ö good. I mean it still doesn't sound great but I mean, it does sound like an Ö. Very impressed, first guy I've ever watched to pronounce it that good whilst not knowing Swedish.
