Legends says he's still asleep(he really can't believe he got that PHD) 🤨
Men opening a car door for men would be seen as a sarcastic joke, men opening a car door for a woman would be seen as flirting sarcastically, women opening a car door for anyone would be seen as just strange
Moving is usually kind of like a party in Sweden, you get together with a bunch of friends and help move all your stuff, and then drink and eat. The cake thing is true though, the rule of thumb is to not take more than half of what's left, which can become a bit ridiculous.
Making friends is probably MUCH easier for foreigners than for native Swedes. About PC, I hear that a lot but it's nothing I've experienced, we make fun of Norwegians, Finns, Danish, Italians, Brits, French, Gays and Lesbians, Blacks and Whites etc ALL THE TIME
It's not uncommon for people renting from the first hand renter rents out the appartment in third hand, or even that that renter rents it out in fourth hand. And of course the rent will get more expensive with each step. I know people who has had a rent of $1000 per month for a two room appartment (a while ago, so may be even worse now). This is mainly a Stockholm thing, but applies in ways to other larger cities. If possible, buy a place, even with the interest of the bank loan, it will cost you less, and the price isn't really a cost, you will most likely get the money back, plus some, when/if you sell
One thing i also heard was that sweden has a very high level of entrepreneurship in relative comparison to other countries. This was explained by the low level of risk involved with starting up business, you still have all social benefits, unlike the us, where you more or less can risk your own life if you quit your job to follow your dream, and loose your health insurance…
I'm not surprised he didn't mention what Anglos would add about what they like of Swedes: Beautiful people! 🙄 But thats not the same perspective for everybody. Italians are beautiful people. Damn, just look at this guy! 😄
Yes, Southern European old fashioned way to queu e and stamps and papers.😁 Yes, for us Nordic women, we have To learn how to be nice for kindness from men. I have already learned, I am 50. When I was younger, I was also rude like that. ( I can open my own Doors) and yes, for being equal with professors or anyone.
Ciao, avresti consigli su dove cercare per un first hand contract?
Da quanto anni abita in Svezia? Alcune cose sono nel frattempo cambiate ( ad esrmpio assicurazioni).
No hes lying, they'll just rob your money and take 50% in taxes every month, stay away from sweden!
hey u did the registration in AIRE before you book an appointment? they asked you for something else there like familjbevis certificate or only appointment, photos and money?

Hi, when you talk about references it needs to be somebody your have rent before? Or could be anybody? Thanks for the tips.
Hey! Any new videos soon?
Wow, a motorcycle is cheaper in Sweden than Italy? That's really astonishing!

No plans for applying for a Swedish Citizen.

Can we joke about Mussolini? You are after all the home of Fascism.
A parte che mi è comparso questo video nella home molto a caso e niente, a questo punto seguo le tue avventure HAHAHHA🤣🤣la parte dell'inesistente burocrazia mi è piaciuta tantissimo, in Italia effettivamente crepiamo tra file e ansia🤦🏻♀️poi per il rapporto tra professori e studenti confermo, è totalmente diverso... anzi, più che altro credo che varia tra le università, ad esempio io studio in Calabria e non so se sia il fatto che l'ateneo sia "più piccolo" rispetto agli altri, ma il rapporto tra studenti e la maggior parte dei professori è molto alla mano e li trovo molto disponibili per quanto riguarda l'aiuto con gli argomenti da studiare e con gli esami, poi anche quello dipende dalle facoltà e insomma non si finisce più. Una cosa carina che mi è accaduta di recente, a proposito di esami, è stata proprio col professore di informatica: mancavano circa 5 giorni all'esame ed ero abbastanza in panico poiché era il mio ultimo, gli ho mandato una mail chiedendo se poteva ricevermi e a parte che ha risposto subito, credo entro l'ora in cui avevo mandato la mail, e niente mi ha tranquillizzata, abbiamo fatto un bel po' di esercizi e ne abbiamo fatti fin quando non era sicuro che avessi capito tutto. Davvero un santo, l'ho ringraziato non so quante volte ma lui tipo "ma figurati, questo è il mio lavoro", è stato davvero un culture shock pur essendo in italia e poi avevo paura che non accettasse poiché mancavano pochi giorni al... gran giorno🤣🤣🤣per inciso, alla fine l'esame è andato benissimo🤣🤣🤣 Riguardo la canzoncina svedese del compleanno... MA COOOOSA🤣🤣🤣sembra mia nonna che mi dice in dialetto "tanti auguri per 100 anni" (traduzione letterale), comunque davvero carina! Ah già, l'ultimo pezzo di torta, vero che noi ci scanniamo per averlo🤣è molto carina anche questa cosa di condividerlo con chi lo vuole (a proposito di ultimo pezzo, stamattina mi sono svegliata tutta contenta di trovare l'ultima fetta perché pensavo che nessuno sarebbe andato all'attacco... niente non l'ho trovata🤣🤣🤣) Spero tu faccia altri video di questo tipo, sono davvero interessanti! Ciao!👋🏻
One thing I know baffles people from other countries is how easy it is to buy a property. You can literally view it, then sign the papers and walk out the bank with your new keys the next day.
who have claimed that pizza sallad was italian? and as understand it, we enhanced the pizza to new hights :) but if someone preffered the italian ways it would be sold ...right? if its not... perhaps it's not appealing to aur tastebuds. or most likely, it is italian pizzamakers :) thanks for you insights :) always interesting to hear what others think.
Think it is more an age thing wen you mention opening doors. Young are more like you mentioned
Good morning from Papua New Guinea. I enjoyed watching your contents. Great contents ❤.
Actually we definitely pay taxes on properties. I have a property and I pay a lot on it. I don't know where what you said came from. Sweden is NOT equal, considering women earn less than men. Then doctors in the US work hard, while in Sweden they do basically nothing. Then, if you want a real doctor either you pay a lot or you go looking for professional treatment in other countries. You say in Sweden healthcare is free. What is free is a voice on the phone telling you to take paracetamol, whatever your symptoms are. Again, if you need a real doctor you will have to pay. So if you are wealthy and have no kids you basically give your money to the government to have nothing back.
yeah...well.. no more. It's actually falling apart completely😊
According to your own perception, or do you have any other reliable source? trust me, compared to most other countries in the world, Sweden is SOLID. 🥳
First of all, I want to compliment you on not having an Italian accent, which I cannot stand. I also happen to be Italian, live in Stockholm and speak English fluently, with no accents so I am picky about it. If you're interested, I would like to give you my point of view regarding what you described: 1) I also open doors for myself, but when someone else does it for me, I smile as an impolite reaction does not mean independence but rudeness. 2) Yes, quick , but insurance is useless here. 3) I don't know where you come from, but even in Italy, taking the last slice of something is considered rude, so it always stays there. There was even a TV commercial about it. My ex-boyfriend is Swedish, with long blonde hair and blue eyes, from a well-off family in Östermalm, and he almost always took the last slice ( maybe that's why I left him) 4) I studied medicine, psychology, and LMS at Sapienza + London, and something at KI. I always had a close relationship with professors, perhaps because I always received top marks and have an impressive personality despite my height of 165cm. Having said that, I like your video, although I am usually annoyed by this kind of video. At least you said something different and spoke perfect English.
My father was Swedish and my mother was Italian so the traits from both nationalities balance themselves out. My father's family came frome Gotebotg. Have you ever been there ? Your English is very good. You barely have an Italian accent. My mother's family came from Calabria. My grandfather came from the old country and had a very strong accent as well as some distant relatives of mine that came for a visit.
Im Swedish and i get stuck holding the door open as everyone (even the people i dident mean to hold it for) walks in. . .
I'm an Italian university student in the UK, and here I had the same culture shock as for the student-teacher relationship. I was literally shocked when my classmates started calling teachers by their first names. Also, I don't really know if it's actually the same in Sweden too, but I was constantly calling my teachers "professors", cause that's how you're taught to call 'em starting from middle school on in Italy, and they eventually asked me not to call them that cause they're "not that clever." That still makes me laugh, but I do love and deeply appreciate this kind of humility teachers seem to have abroad, in Italy you basically treat and see them as unapproachable celebrities or deities
I bet it dies not cost €10 per beer in Italy 😢
Italy doesn't have it's own version of happy birthday? Greece does. Maybe Italy doesn't have the tradition of singing to the birthday person. I'm glad Sweden has its own song.
Your pronunciation is probably the best i've heard from a non-native speaker.
wow galing nice grand draw
I always find funny the hypocrisy of Swedish hyper feminist culture also celebrating and fully embracing islamic culture which systematically abuses and imprisons women and girls
How does this theoretical study work?
That’s called toxic femininity
My family are all from Italy. My Boyfriend is from Sweden. He doesn't like Italian food at all. He only like fish, particularly, Salmon. My family is hard to please as it is,they don't understand the Swedish way of doing things; theyare very outgoing , whereas my boyfriend and his family are very reserved. I really believe Swedish food is very health as he is all muscle and bone with no extra fat
I agree on most things except for food culture. Swedish food is usually better, tastier imho.
Congratulations !!!Do you still in Sweden ?
Why doesn’t Sweden built more housing snd apartments?!
you forgot to mention that Swedes call their professor or teachers by their first names. There is no formality like other countries
Sången är bäst 🎊 🎉
The first one... I haven't given it much thought, but man it makes sense! I am a Swede and I live in Germany, married to a German woman - one thing that actually annoys me is that people kinda "takes advantage of you" (what it feels like to me at times). I mean, I am a helpful guy and like to help out, doing at the very least 'my share of the work', but there are so many (small to medium-sized) tasks that I would never ask anyone to help me with, here, people don't do those tasks alone but request help with it.
