Also the giant "Mölndal" sign! He scrolled past Mölndal multiple times on the map haha. Also the amount of leaf trees over pine trees indicates southern-central Sweden.
Its fun to see someone play sweden that dont know where anything is. And also, since you dont know about sweden alot of clues are missed. Mölndal stad tells you nothing but if you know sweden it tells you where you are. Every swede knows where Leksand is but if you arnt from sweden, how could you know. Its like me playing Brasil where I dont even know where the larger cities are located or what their names are.
Yeah the fact that the sign says "stad" and not kommun is also a tell it is a bigger city. It litteraly means city. Also Mölndal is where I grew up so kind of funny to see Lindome in a sign and instantly realise aproximatley where it was. I dont think you know where Lindome is unless you are from the Gothenburg area, whereas alot of people would know Mölndal.
if you find a supermarket like "Ica" or "Coop" they often say the place the supermarket is near, more often on "Ica Nära" which translates to "Ica Close (by)"
I loved it when you saw the road sign for the direction to Sollefteå and thought you where in the Town. Those road signs without a distance numbers are just used for directions when the road situation is complicated. A trick for seeing how far north you are in Sweden is how the forests look. Scane and the west coast is dominated by leaf trees. Middle sweden from Gävle/Stockholm and south is mixed forrest and further north is dominated by Coniferous trees with ever fewer leaf trees the further up you get.
20:28 You were literally going through Lindome, the place you tried to find, and you couldn't find it XD Can't blame you, though. The name didn't show up on the map.
Only because E roads ending in 0 or 5 are meant to be the most major ones, former E3 was renumbered as E20 in Sweden while former E66 was renumbered E20 in Denmark but became E22 in Sweden, and so a connection had to be formed between Malmö and Gothenburg.
I think by now most of us realize that pronouncing swedish words as a foreigner correctly takes like 40 years of living in sweden most of the time haha
Southern Sweden is much hillier than people realize, if you look up a topography map you’ll see there is a plateu east of Gothenburg that is known as sydsvenska höglandet (south Swedish highlands) hope this helps for future geoguessr rounds in Sweden 🙌
1:29 holy shit i recognized this in a split second! i've driven on this road COUNTLESS times, and it's currently the road i drive every day on my way to and back from work! i've watched so many geoguessr videos but never seen a place so close to home before :D
1:05 Scandinavia = Norway, Sweden, Denmark Nordic = The above + Finland and Iceland There you have it, it’s not hard. If you really wanna include Finland in Scandinavia you gotta say Fennoscandia, which is Finland, Sweden, Norway and the Kola peninsula.
It's very common that roads in europe have multiple numbers at the same time, notably when its an E-road. Like in the last part the E6 and E20 are both the same phsyical road but maps only shows E6
I’m only at 9:25, but my first reaction was “it looks like he’s in Bispgården” 😂 only passed through there, grew up outside of Sollefteå 😂 Loved your pronunciation of the names.
Your comment reminded me how to pronounce that name (sollefteå). I have not used or heard that name in several years now. When I saw the name in the video I had no clue what it was.
17:22 - It feels like you were only looking in the direct proximity of the E6 and E20. The E6 and E20 signs are surrounded by dotted lines, which means that the sign is pointing towards them. So you can be quite far away. If you had been on the E6 and E20, the sign would have solid lines.
12:33 a tip that is way to late. It say "västtrafik" on the bus, that means west traffic.. meaning basically west coast diatrict regonal transport service.
I've only ever watched a geoguessr speedrun from SGDQ, so i guess it's why i was recommended this. It was very entertaining to watch as a swede. Perhaps i should look more into geoguessr it looks like a fun game.
Lakes as a reference point can be a bit hard to use sometimes when you do the geoguesser, there is sooo many lakes both big and small, the eastern part of Sweden (Finland) is called "land of the thousand lakes" and you can almost say that about the rest of sweden aswell. Fun video to watch as as a Swede. Take care and i wish you all the best.
As someone who lives donw that road in Lindome. Watching this was very entertaining. I imidietly recognised that crossing as its right next to a school i know of.
You know what's funny about the third round? I have cousins from around that area. So I knew immediately where you were after walking across the tracks.
Look at the trees!!! The last one was clearly in southern Sweden because you see more trees with leaves than pine trees or spruce trees. Combine this with the hilliness and the looks, my guess was instantly either västra götaland or halland.
Some information that would have helped to know is that the E6 and the E20 merge into 1 road heading south, google maps cleary only shows it as the E6 even though it's the same road
The color of busses gives away soo much. And so does the look of buss stops. They are very regional. Also street names are usually double info they contain the name + a key information about the environment. If a name ends in ”sjö” there is lake near by. The name may also contain the size of the place ”by” means small village ”köping” usually means small town.
it was rly fun to watch you play and try to pronounce the places but i gotta say the last round… as someone who used to live in that area and used to travel those roads every single week it was a bit painful 😂 unfortunately i think you would’ve been able to get it quicker if you turned towards Gräggered at the start of that round (would’ve gotten signs towards Mölnlycke which is bigger than Lindome) just unlucky with choosing directions 😅 glad you managed to figure it out at the end tho!!
Scandinavia is the countries following the ridge of the Skandia mountains. (Even below the sea) That includes Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Iceland. The nordic countries are those but also include Finland.
As a swede this was really fun, when you searched way to north for the last place wich is in my region. I could like see the sign for a place i have been in a few times and shit
village names ending with arp like Mörarp or Påarp to 99 per cent is located in Skåne. Good tip for you if you play geogesser in Sweden. Theese one should be just outside Helsingborg somewhere
Did you know that the busses not only go to big cities "there's a bus so we must be near a big city", im swede and i know, i live in a village with 400 people and there are busses frequantly there.
Sweden is actually both nordic and scandinavian. Ye a little confusing but basically the three countries of sweden, denmark and norway are "scandinavian" while the nordic countries also includes iceland and finland.
@XxavokadoxX scandinavia is a geographical area which includes Sweden, norway, and Denmark.. norway and Sweden are on the scandinavian peninsula. What you're referring to is the scandes.
Nice. I live in Finland and have played a lot of games in Nordic countries and have always felt Sweden slightly harder than Norway for some reason. That is even I understand Swedish better than Norwegian language.
The reason you wated so much time on the last is because you started looking in the north thinking those hills were mountains. You should have looked at the trees, which were mostly deciduos forest (trees with leafs) and not coniferous, like pine and firs. That woiuld have clued you in sooner it was more to the south
You tricked yourself with the "flat" south of Sweden. Yeah, some parts are flat, and more areable land to the south, but there are def hills and highlands to the south ad well.
Don't worry about your Swedish pronanciation, you where very consistently butchering every single place you troed to name and no one will be upset about it.
Apart from road numbers, the key to success in Sweden is bus stops - each of the 21 regions has their unique design and colour scheme.
They also have their unique buses. At 12:55, you can see a bus from Västtraffik. They operate in western Sweden around Gothenburg and Västergötland.
Another thing is the general climate, scania and north of Stockholm is really different while the middle land is more tempered
Another tip- local “Ica “-stores in small towns often have the town name written on them.
Yeah, even if you don't live in Gothenburg (in which case you would know Lindome in an instant) the Västtrafik bus sheds are instantly recognisable.
@@KittenCrittershigh numbers on the buses 😭 i live very close to lindome and we used to have a bus that was at the 700s, meanwhile the other buses in the gothenburg city are under 100
As a swede, "birch sauce", "bus a gen", "parp" was very funny pronounciations 😂

How he managed to put the j-sound behind the r in Bjursås is such an American thing. 🙄

@@affewik7931 Which is all somewhat near Gothenburg:D
When looking for roadnumbers in Sweden, if the number has a dotted line around it then it means that the road you are on will lead to that road.
As a Swede, the way you pronounced "Bustigen" is very funny.
I laughed out loud at that one too hahahha BUSTigen

A tip for Sweden is if the road name ends with "g." it's short for "gatan" which means street
The street*
Gata= Street
@@elin_ Jag översätter det så så att det blir mindre att förklara eftersom vi använder "gatan" på samma sätt som de använder "street"

Scane and the west coast is dominated by leaf trees. Middle sweden from Gävle/Stockholm and south is mixed forrest and further north is dominated by Coniferous trees with ever fewer leaf trees the further up you get.
Unless its a birch. You got loads of birches far north in Sweden.
@@spacemaker8760 They tend to grow in specific places where they are not crowded out by Conifer trees like near water or at higher altitude.
The roads were circled with dashed borders, that means you can get to those roads if you follow that direction, not that you're on them.
20:28 You were literally going through Lindome, the place you tried to find, and you couldn't find it XD
Can't blame you, though. The name didn't show up on the map.
“I can’t see Lindome anywhere on the map”
*Me screaming at him while literally seeing Lindome in the corner of the screen*
A lot of the times small villages has similar ending deepening on where you are. For example -arp is South.
And once the towns start having Finnish/Sami sounding names you know you are in the northernmost regions.
In Kungsbacka, there are "Oslo" signs.... It is almost a four hour drive...
me living really close to lindome and seeing the road hes on which is incredibly familiar, and i hear him say, lets look north💀
This is funny as a swede. The pronunciations and some things like ”apparently lindome is a big place” while searching in the mountains up north 😂
E6 and E20 runs combined south of Gothenburg. That is why you had trouble finding E20, at 20:37 you can actually see it on the map aswell!
Only because E roads ending in 0 or 5 are meant to be the most major ones, former E3 was renumbered as E20 in Sweden while former E66 was renumbered E20 in Denmark but became E22 in Sweden, and so a connection had to be formed between Malmö and Gothenburg.
also i was just screaming LOOK AROUND Göteborg FOR FUCK SAKE! 🤣
18:55 is rough, it should say Lindome over that big grey area on the left, instead of the other names.
ye, it only shows the name for the ica and "spinneriet"
