How about you check back in two weeks when I post a video about 10 things the UK does better than Sweden - since I already recorded both of those when I was in the UK. And if you had checked for two seconds you would have found that I post several videos about things I hate about Sweden. But I guess you're too busy making yourself look like a few crayons short of a full box. Keep trying, man. One of these days you might get something right.
Now as a good Swedish boy I expect your next video to be titled “10 things Sweden does better then Finland” and for consistency it should be filmed in Finland, preferably in public and within the earshot of a Fin…. You know, for comedic effect or something.
As a Brit, I agree with you completely. Another thing Sweden does better is social interactions. There is far too much insincere small talk in the UK, it's a really tiring aspect of our culture.
That's so interesting! Most people complain about the Swedes' lack of smalltalk - how we're horrible at casual conversation compared to many other cultures. So... I think some people would claim the complete opposite!
@@ThreeStarVagabond "Lack of smalltalk"??? We proud ourselves with THE icebreaker of smalltalk... "Vilket jäkla väder!" (damn weather)😅 Great video as usual Miro!
I love your videos and your sense of humor. My half Sami husband and I plan on going to Sweden in the near future,when he decides to take a vacation. Have a great day and aloha from Hawai'i
As an Australian with both British and Swedish ancestry…….I’ve got to say you’re correct here mate 👍🏻. I do enjoy your videos. Regards from Brisbane 🇦🇺
Incredible. This might be the first video I've ever seen where it actually rains in London/England. Quite strange, as they sure seem to talk a lot about rainy weather over there.
Vem kan Segla förutan Vind is my new favorite folk song from Sweden. I am not sure if the song is originated in Sweden during the Viking age but so emotional. I hope you will make a video about folk songs from Sweden, Vagabond. I know I know maybe I am too demanding :) Btw, I laughed so hard about flat hierarchy jokes. Yes, it is definitely true when considering business culture around the world. I think Scandinavians are the best. I hope flat hierarchy will be a common culture in many companies. Otherwise, we have to deal with every post-traumatic boss in everyday. Another great video, thank you so much. Have a great day. Additionally, I want to ask a question about the Numbeo statistics. In some places in Sweden crime rates are extremely high like Eskilstuna is about over 68% crime rate. That means it is literally a war zone. But you made a video about the town. It looked really peaceful. It is very confusing. I just wanted to ask about it because it is hard to believe which one is true?
Ooh, that's interesting! The problem with making videos about songs is that I have to be careful about copyright.. Maybe I have to play them mysef then... And thanks! Hmm about Eskilstuna, I think that there are three different types of crime in Sweden, generally: 1) Gang crime and violence etc (really bad crime) 2) Economical crimes, casual drug use, etc 3) Drunken violence on weekends Eskilstuna is calm and peaceful so I think it's mostly #2 and #3 there.
@@ThreeStarVagabond Ah, yes. You are right. I forgot about the copyrights. Thank you so much for making it clear. I heard those kinds of crimes are regular in major cities in Sweden. I was wondering about the statistics. But I have to be an inspector to find the truth. I hope for better days for Sweden. Thanks again. Keep yourself safe and sound.
@@ThreeStarVagabond I am glad to hear that my friend. At least you have been traveling around the world. Maybe other countries had lots of problem. But Sweden has an open society. Maybe that's why we encounter lots of news about that. Have great day! 🙂
@@doguskoyuncu5177 Maybe! And because Sweden has been seen as a good place before all of this... But either way, thanks for those kind words, and hope you have a great week!
I enjoyed this video, but then...I always enjoy what you do. I hope Sweden and other places can maintain their better work culture. As an American, chatting with friends in the UK in recent years is not too unlike chatting with others, here, when it comes to many things we both seem to struggle with. As usual, you tempered this well with reminders that Sweden has its issues, too...every place does. Thanks for sharing London videos, recently...they've all been informative and a lot of fun 😀
I think I've learned a lesson about making videos that are too bullying, without at least showing a glimpse of both sides... But yeah, the work culture is something I do appreciate in Sweden. I'm not sure if I could cope with the UK or the US. But thanks a lot either way, and happy that you enjoy my little...escapades over the small pond :D
Well I’ve never been to Britain and have Been to Sweden so I will have to take your word as the truth. Love your videos but I adore Fika, that is one thing I continue to do here in the US. Enjoyed the video, can’t wait for the next one .
Another great video. I love Sweden and the people are generally great...but i would state that bar staff - especially barmen in Stockholm can be generally brash ...even a bit rude when serving in bars/pubs in Stockholm.
I have been quite unhappy with living in the UK for a long time now. House prices are far too expensive for me, renting isnt any better. Everyone are rushing everywhere and quite angry. You do get friendly people too of course, but I feel in the last 20 years the UK has just got grumpier, and we are living on top of each other. I met my Swedish bf online, and I would love to move to Sweden but now because of Brexit. The amount of people I know that voted for Brexit, that are now complaining about the effects of Brexit... I just hope that I am able to be accepted to Sweden & I can find a job. I have been slowly learning Swedish, but I am far from fluent.
It's always difficult to move to a new country, but I think that Brits do well in Sweden. But unfortunately I have to say that some of those complains apply to Stockholm as well... Maybe not as bad as in the UK but it's still not all that good here either, neither with housing nor with grumpy people...
Another great vlog Miro! Mind boggling stat with regard to number of people in such a small area. I live in a country town 600 klms from Melbourne Australia with a population around 105k over 22,000 square klms. Reading some of the comments, regarding grumpy/angry people and employment/housing; this is worldwide I’m afraid - here in Australia too and we didn’t have a Brexit- since covid employment is hard to get and housing rentals almost non existent, house prices skyrocketing and wages stagnant, food is ridiculously expensive. The same story everywhere- you can certainly understand where the anger is coming from. I am 82 days away from my flight to London and then Sweden - cannot wait to experience both countries- and thanks for the visual reminder for me to pack an umbrella 🤣
Thank you! And thanks for the reminder that things are rough all over right now - it's easy to focus on your own country, and forget that the grass might not be greener anywhere else... But the upcoming trip is awesome at least! 82 days left, not that you're counting eh ;D Oh damn, it's just 46 days until my next big trip as well. I hope I won't need an umbrella in the US ^_^
@@ThreeStarVagabond counting? Who me? Only since booking my trip last June! Hahaha. I have a countdown app that reminds me everyday - keeps the excitement building 🤣 as for your US trip, whether you need a “brolly” (Aussie slang for umbrella) depends on your destination- I was in LA last year in early May and no umbrella needed - beautiful weather and only needed a light jacket at night.
@@donnamortensen959 A countdown app! I need to get one of those too :D Ooh, now I've learned a new word, brolly! And that sounds promising.. I think I'll get by in May as well then. What with my viking blood from the frigid north and all that jazz.
I use Countdown + for ios - it’s free for the most part - obviously you can spend on the extras but I just need a basic countdown so the free bits work fine.
As a Londoner now living in Italy, I can look back on many of the things you've mentioned and not miss them at all 😆. That said, one has to live in another country to realise that the grass isn't always greener. I've lived in Belgium, France and now Italy and they all have their good and bad sides, it's what you make of them that counts. I only know Sweden as a summer tourist and fell in love with the country, and I agree that Fika is wonderful. By the way, spelt with a C instead of the K, it means lady parts in Italian slang 😅
Oh, I totally agree! And I have my fair share of grievances with Sweden as well (I made two videos about things I hate about the place). It's like you say - the grass isn't always greener, and every places has both positives and negatives. Haha, thanks for the note about fika! I'll need to be careful when talking about it in Italy... :D
@@ThreeStarVagabond tell me about it, already nearly a quarter of the way through 2024. Work needs to give us more time to live life and more money for the privilege.
@@continentalcoxons Hear ye, hear ye! And I can't help being stupid either. "So, three weeks in the US. That's awesome. But I reeeally would like to go two weeks to Indonesia as well after summer..." If I do that it'll be "savings and vacation days, it was nice knowing you!"
The UK is always cold but not cold enough or hot but not hot enough. You can have months of sunshine one year and the next can be cold and wet. Also depends what area of the country you live Wales experience more rainfall than the rest of the country and south of England experiences more longer warm weather in the summer
Well considering the mass colonization that Britain had exploited its colonies resources and people, they resented immigration so much that Brexit happened. There’s a large minority that voted against Brexit, especially in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The UK includes the separate countries/cultures of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Most British who voted against Brexit argue that it was the anti-immigration movement that wanted to leave the EU. Scotland and Northern Ireland have discussed leaving the UK over Brexit. It was England and Wales that overwhelmingly wanted to leave the EU. I know this because I have visited the UK several times in the last few years. I also keep in touch with my British friends and family. Nevertheless, I love Britain, as well as Scandinavia. ❤
As a Brit, I can tell you're right! Though I have to say that you need to step out if London to see how bad it really is. A trip to Glasgow or Manchester would give you at least another 5 things that are worse here than they are in Sweden 😅
Oh, don't worry - I've spent some time in Liverpool and Manchester as well. But then again, I've also been to Oxford, the Cotswolds, Edinburg, Fort William etc - so I've seen some quite nice spots too :D
I'm sorry but what do you have to say against Manchester through??? It's a great city to live in, after 6 years spent in London, I'm finally enjoying my life here, for the past 4 years.
Tack Miro! Speaking as a English person (of Swedish decent) my opinion is that England is rundown due to lack of investment over the decades. Forget London Miro! Come to Northern England where the Vikings settled. Visit York A.K.A. Jorvik, and try Theakstons Brewery - that will put hair on your chest as the saying goes 😊.
Makes sense! And I do think that I need to visit the North a lot more. I've just been around Liverpool / Manchester, and also up in Scotland. But it would be so much fun to see Northern England too :D Haha, I look forward to even more hair on my chest so I can cope with the cold Swedish winters

You could have also included that Sweden isn't allowing huge swathes of it's towns and cities to slowly turn into second world poo holes. Disagree about Empire though. Although there's a current blame culture fad kicking around to most Brits it's just history that's been and gone.
Well, I think we have our fair share of towns going into poo territory as well... And yeah I won't really argue the empire point too much - it was mostly a fun addition to the list.
The U.K. was SECOND (just after Sweden) as far as good Standard of living went in Europe in the early 1960's.......exactly when their Empire began to crumbble .... Ever since then the U.K. has stayed practikly unchanged..... It's present reality.....infrastructure....transport systems.....housing....National Health System....etc,etc.....has become very antiquated in comparison with the rest of it's E.U. neighbours..... The U.K. needs a lot of Capital spent OVERHAULING IT'S OLD WHOLE SYSTEMS UP.... SO AS TO BE AT E.U. Level.... Can they do it ?......yes they can.!!...but it will take them a very HUGE EFFORT.... If they keep as they are...they will end up as an Argentina like country.... STUCK AS 60 YEARS AGO.... on the side coast of the E.U. Which is sad to see Good old little England moving that way. 😮😊
By the way....the Word Fica in Portuguese means STAY.....PROBABLY STEMMING FROM THE GOTHS IN IBERIA.... SINCE your Fikka is a Sort of a break STAY with Friends e.g. for a Coffee. 😮😊
That's interesting... It could just be that the same word evolved in different places, but there could be some connection as well! And thanks for a great analysis of the situation in the UK!
@@ThreeStarVagabond You did a lot to show me some things about Sweden and the UK, so I thought I would give you an obscure British phrase, to express surprise... thanks

That's too bad! Oh well, cheers anyway!
