I wonder if they are even allowed to go into Amsterdam (or even Copenhagen) after that statement... Or maybe Dutch and Danes can just be like "well, maybe they just don't know better" and call it a day. Something something about orange pills...
I am surprised by the flithy state of the city. Is it because of too much immigrants? I saw a boy spitting in 16 number bus,I was shocked by this behavior.
Lol the Moccamaster coffee maker is a legendary favorite in the Nordic countries! I have one too, 40 years old and they still make all the spare parts for it since the model has not changed. Talk about sustainability! :)
@@Sincabello I read somewhere that it's pretty much only a Nordic thing, even though it's a Dutch company. Funny how human culture works 😆 I'm Finnish and Moccamaster is hugely respected here.
@@rustyspace900 Same. There's a Moccamaster in every house that appreciates good filter coffee. I read that capsule machines kinda killed it in The Netherlands in the early 2000's. Makes sense that it held strong in the nordics, since we've always appreciated simple things, and we like the principles of recycling, so capsules don't really fit
Forget the fictional ones; Gothenburg has parks that are perfect for picnics or plotting world domination. They’re verdant enough to make Mother Nature slightly jealous.
A "simple" coffeemaker? That was a Moccamaster... Looked like smaller model. But, they are the top of coffeebrewers with a quality that is hard to beat. I miss Göteborg, I used to go there twice a week for work som years ago. And everybody should visit Liseberg and get their hair done on the roller-coasters.
Moccamaster is made by the Dutch company Technivorm. They are designd and built in the Netherlands. It's by far the best drip coffee maker you can get. By the way, the capitol of bicycling in Sweden is Malmö. 1 of may your team Djurgården plays Malmö in the Svenska Cupen final in fotboll in Malmö. 8300 Djurgården supporters are attending the game 500 km from Stockholm. Unfortunately the tickets are sold out.
5:50 those are called "landshövdingehus" - "governor houses". One governor of then Gothenburg and Bohus county in the 1800s banned houses in the city from being built entirely of wood. The first floor had to be in stone, to reduce the risk of fires spreading.
Partially true. The Governor made a rule that one may only build two stories with wood. And so people started building one or more stone stories and then adding thw two wooden ones a a sort of rule bend. And since it came about due to the Governors decree, the style of building got that name.
From music festivals to seafood feasts, the city celebrates so many things, it feels like you’re living in a never-ending party. If you didn’t take a selfie, did it even happen?
If you switch on the subtitles, it says “Gothamburg” instead of Gothenburg”, so maybe that’s why they made the connection to Batman. I’ve never heard any Batman-jokes about Gothenburg either.
A city where you can swing from cultural museums to amusement parks with a mere hop and skip. It’s like being in a live-action video game where the levels are all about exploration and the prizes are local treats!
Sweden started using glasses at cafés around 30 years ago when lattes started to become popular. It was adopted from Italy. Before that it was pretty much just regular drip brewed coffee in ceramic cups, and it used to be super cheap.
Completely agree on the pee. 😄 I commute to Stockholm every day and start each morning with that wall of pee and poo stink wall slapping my face at the central station. Way to greet people, Stockholm. 😅
You mean him complaining about glasses instead of coffee cups? If so, I think he's right. Using glasses instead of porcelain cups is a new thing is Sweden, pretty unheard of before the late 80s.

As a Canaidian you really should learn more about the Kingdom of Denmark since it is one of only two countries Canada share a land border with (since the Whisky War was setled and Hans island split in 2022, doubling boths countries number of adjecent countries). The land border is shared with Greenland that is one of the three parts of the Kingdom of Denmark.
I lived in Haga in the seventies before the big renovations and the inhabitants were artists, musicians, students and hippies. Everybody sharing everything and it was a really nice place back then. I have watched some of your videos and appreciate that you are so respectful when you comment things. Really nice - keep on going, I will follow (:
The standard width in most of Europe and north america for a train is 3150mm. In Sweden its 3400mm, there is also a extended width of 3600mm (only on some parts of the network). While the Swedish train profile is 3400mm, not all trains are that wide. I don´t know the exact width of X74 train, but i would assume that its pretty close top 3400mm
Oh, I'm a little sad you didn't stay longer. Always nice to see someone exploring the city where you live. The train ride between Gothenburg and Stockholm is so beautiful in the summer when everything is green. Sweden really comes to life during the summer months.
Haga is older then Gothenburg, it was an own town, the houses calls landshövdingehus after the big Fire in the beginning of 1800 it was not allowed to bild house with more then 2 floors, so they bild one stone and two wooden floors
Guys, you really do make the cutest couple! ^^ As for your videos from Sweden I find it really interesting to see familiar scenes, places, stores but from the perspective of someone who´s not born, raised and familiar with them. Welcome back any time
Our young city is 400 years young, practically a teenager. 500 is a few years away, year 2121 which has a nice numerology to it. The 400 year celebration was postponed to 2023/402 due to Covid, and was pretty nice!
That McDonald's at Stockholm Central Station is probably the filthiest and most unpleasant McDonald's in the entire world and yes the station smells like piss in some parts. Glad you are enjoying my country!
The kebab shop at the opposite side of the food court though? Damn it's genuinely surprisingly good you wouldn't believe. If you ever have to eat at Stockholm Central Station go there.
The Technivorm Moccamaster is sorta the Rolls Royce of coffee makers. Personally I'd stay away from Airbnb I larger cities because we have a crazy housing crisis. And the locals need those apartments that scrupulous contract holders put online. For example, the rental queue in Stockholm is 13 years.
I must say that I enjoy watching your videos, just recently found them. Started to watch your hockey videos and continued with these. If/when you get back to Sweden you should visit Gotland and Visby, Visby inside the defensive wall is beautiful and old. I hope to see your opinion of the "inner city" of Visby some day.
Haha those big "cinnamon buns" are made for instagram, not to eat! You are supposed to give them to the seagulls after the shot. They taste like baked air!
Greetings from the UK. Big fan of your videos! Booked up to go over and watch Frolunda v Farjestad in March.....Wife was a little puzzled by my choice, but think it looks amazing.
Glad to see you guys finally made it to the better side of Sweden, "the front side"! ;D Having narrowly escaped Stockholm, I'm sure you enjoyed the free world!
Gothenburg is small but very nice. Many buildings have really pretty and detailed facades. The city is also going to have many tall buildings in 20 years.
And in my opinion, Gothenburg is much prettier than Stockholm. Stockholm only looks good near the water front, but otherwise it’s kinda ugly. Most buildings are a mix of modern buildings and nordic classism.
@@jonathan130well stockholm is built on multiple islands so there is a lot of water.. and it Also doesn’t have big ass harbors and random industry buildings in the city like in Gothenburg. And there is also a mix between classic a modern in Gothenburg as well.
@@pMsAlex138 alright but im more impressed by the architecture in Gothenburg. and that harbour will be turned into a bustling city district with cool and tall buildings soon 🙃
You guys are great! Very relaxed and feel good- style...I appreciate the content. "Coffee should come in a coffee cup" ? Yeah, but what you are drinking there should not be called coffee! 😉
The coffee maker is a mocca master, the creamdelacream of drip. It is pretty sofisticated acually, dutch quality. It does the water to steam before getting together with the coffee makes it pretty perfect as it can get without heavy coffeemaker-machinery. Ofc the better coffee the better taste but if you have made coffee in normal drips and try this you should feel some different even if you drink some gevalia.
I´m just so curious: What actually made you think, that Gothenburg would be boring? If you think Gothenburg is the biking capital - you are in for a surprise in Denmark :) Enjoy
At the end if you orderd a caffe laté or a coffe with milk and not a brewcoffe with milk you might get it in a glas. It may also be a thing for thar cafe. A brewcoffe with or without is served in a porslin cup.
Don't worry about poor joke and bad puns. Gothenburg is the city that loves bad jokes, silly jokes, dad jokes and poor puns, it even got its own nme, Göteborgshumor, Gothenburg humor. So bwt they laughed at the Batmanjoke, theyre silly like that and a reason to love them. 💛❤️💙
You should really visit Malmö before going to Copenhagen. Its the third largest city in Sweden and well worth a visit. Rather small but stil has everything a big city can offer.
You don’t know cherry blossoms?????? Adored world over and especially in Japan where the cherry blossom - sakura - season is celebrated and they have forecasts every year where and when the blossoms come up! You have a lovely cherry blossom park in Vancouver too - and one woud suspect in Toronto also!
I think a cinnamon bun is a bit like pizza- even when it’s bad, it’s still pretty good. So, maybe I am not a cinnamon bun connoiseur just yet, but the one we tried in the video was still pretty good 👍😅
if you like castles, go visit the Kalmar Castle in Sweden, you can get guided tour there with all history told. That's where the Danes lost and stopped their invation.
2:10 Some trains in Sweden are in fact wider than in most of Europe. For example, Germany's ICE trains are 2.95 meters wide while our X2000 trains are 3.05 meters wide so about 10 cm wider. I don't know if the one that you travelled on (X74) is that wide though.
I have the exact same criticism about serving hot beverages in glasses without handles. There is no excuse for it... It's not fancy. It's just stupid! But to be fair, only a few places do that. Most Swedish cafes have proper cutlery and such. All the same, it's refreshing to see your country through a foreigners eyes. Seems like you guys had a good time. Nice of you to share your experience :)
I hope the overall volume on everything and everyone around you where satisfying? you could say it´s part of our culture not to be so loud and expressive, especially on trains/busses and out on cafes, ofc there are exceptions. ive heard that is one of the really big diffrences between the US and Sweden (might be wrong tho).
If you had ordered regular filter coffee or a cappuccino they would probably have served you a cup, meanwhile a big latte is often served in a big glass here in Sweden. I think swedes would also call real coffee as regular filter coffee, preferring it strong.
Gotheburg is a rather young city, founded in the early 17th century, though there was a village there earlier. It was a strategic place as it at the time was the only window to the west that Sweden had, the west coast of what is now Sweden was Danish, except for a narrow corridor mayby 30-40 km wide around Gothenburg. As Sweden and Denmark hold the world record for number of wars fought between two countries, it makes perfect sense to expect an attack and fortify the city accordingly!
Sweden and Denmark are often said to be the two countries who had the most wars inbetween them in the world. But we love each other nowadays (but cannot understand what the other nation says) Cinnamon buns at cafes/restaurants are typically too big (same as with meatballs) you don't really get the proper proportions of ingredients, crust, etc.
The French and the British had the hundred year war. (!) Just saying. Amongst others. The French supporting the revolutionaries in the US versus the Brits, also supporting the Yanks in the civil war while the Brits supported the South (which was kind of an "oof" moment, these days), because the Brits were still salty about losing the revolutionary war. :P Oh, and Normands invading Britain during the middle ages - twice actually, as I recall... lol Also, the expression "pardon the French", used to liken French language with swearing, etc. So fair amount of animosity there, historically... :) Of course, nobody cares much about any of that anymore. Or at least as long as we have food on our table, roofs over our heads and smartphones to scroll on. Take all that away though, and we'll likely show our true colors yet again. ;)
You call that houses ” landshövdingehus” it was to expansiv to have the whole hous in stone,but for it dont should burn down,when one house get burning you did the bottenfloor in stone😊
💯 on point about the coffee cup. Just not the same in a glass. Tends to be how specifically lattes are served in some places. I've also seen americanos served this way.
In my opinion Copenhagen is the best Nordic city I think you'll like it. Also that moccamaster is a staple in every Finnish household or at least used to be and I suppose same in Sweden
I never heard the Goth joke before :) to us is just an easy English-ification we provide to let foreigners not try to bother butchering Göteborg. The other Skansen/Castle, Skansen Lejonet/The Lion is said to have been under the command Emerentia Pauli, wife of the deceased commander, where she successfully commanded the defense against the Danes until the Swedish army reinforced them. Basically the saying goes her dying husband knew his military staff was incompetent and made her temporary commander and the entire defense went “sure she’s giving orders and clearly knows what to do, hell yeah we’ll follow orders from a civilian if it means we will survive this occupation!”… also said drunk invaders were found in the wine cellar, who were so drunk they had missed that the rest of the danish army retreated. The castles looks tiny from afar but if you visit them when they are open, they are surprisingly large on the inside.
"Gothenburg the capitol of bike lanes" Wait til you guys get to Copenhagen! Or if you ever go to Amsterdam. 😅
Yes. Gothenburg bike lanes suck. Haha. Go CPH supergood
I wonder if they are even allowed to go into Amsterdam (or even Copenhagen) after that statement...
Or maybe Dutch and Danes can just be like "well, maybe they just don't know better" and call it a day.
Something something about orange pills...

Welcome to Gothenburg ❤
I have the exact same criticism about serving hot beverages in glasses without handles. There is no excuse for it... It's not fancy. It's just stupid! But to be fair, only a few places do that. Most Swedish cafes have proper cutlery and such.
All the same, it's refreshing to see your country through a foreigners eyes. Seems like you guys had a good time. Nice of you to share your experience :)
Nice video, If you are still in Sweden on May 1st, visit Malmö and try to get tickets for the Swedish Cup Final Malmö-Djurgården 💛❤💙
Göteborg looks nice town. Maybe i will some funny day visit there.
Do you ever think of giving up those winter coats... hahah
So funny the timing of this comment- we just donated the winter coats today haha
I hope the overall volume on everything and everyone around you where satisfying?
you could say it´s part of our culture not to be so loud and expressive, especially on trains/busses and out on cafes, ofc there are exceptions.
ive heard that is one of the really big diffrences between the US and Sweden (might be wrong tho).
If you had ordered regular filter coffee or a cappuccino they would probably have served you a cup, meanwhile a big latte is often served in a big glass here in Sweden. I think swedes would also call real coffee as regular filter coffee, preferring it strong.
Gotheburg is a rather young city, founded in the early 17th century, though there was a village there earlier. It was a strategic place as it at the time was the only window to the west that Sweden had, the west coast of what is now Sweden was Danish, except for a narrow corridor mayby 30-40 km wide around Gothenburg. As Sweden and Denmark hold the world record for number of wars fought between two countries, it makes perfect sense to expect an attack and fortify the city accordingly!
Göteborg isn’t that young if one consider it’s predecessor Lödöse. Lödöse is older than Stockholm.
Great movie. Awesome, Looks fantastic there !
The pink trees I think those come from Japan because the Swedes like to import stuff
If that is the kind of coffee maker I think it is, combined with what you got that is a steal...
Yes,you came to My city gothenburg ,her was i born and raise😊
If you order coffee it comes in a cup, but that was caffe-latte... more milk than coffee, served like in Italy.
Sweden and Denmark are often said to be the two countries who had the most wars inbetween them in the world. But we love each other nowadays (but cannot understand what the other nation says)
Cinnamon buns at cafes/restaurants are typically too big (same as with meatballs) you don't really get the proper proportions of ingredients, crust, etc.
The French and the British had the hundred year war. (!) Just saying. Amongst others. The French supporting the revolutionaries in the US versus the Brits, also supporting the Yanks in the civil war while the Brits supported the South (which was kind of an "oof" moment, these days), because the Brits were still salty about losing the revolutionary war. :P Oh, and Normands invading Britain during the middle ages - twice actually, as I recall... lol
Also, the expression "pardon the French", used to liken French language with swearing, etc. So fair amount of animosity there, historically... :)
Of course, nobody cares much about any of that anymore. Or at least as long as we have food on our table, roofs over our heads and smartphones to scroll on. Take all that away though, and we'll likely show our true colors yet again. ;)
Gothenburg is a MESS when it comes to roads and markings.
I love Ivana`s hat 😊
The MTRX train is actually owned by VR nowadays (The Finnish government owned train company)
So, grab a kanelbulle (cinnamon bun) and a friend, and let the adventures in Gothenburg begin-where charm meets cheekiness around every corner!
YOU HAVE TO EXPLORE MALMÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖ
you missed the fish and all sorts off handcrafted stuff in gbg what they are known for
Yo i’ve been to haga multiple times, thats awesome
If you had ordered a normal coffee you would probably have gotten in it a normal cup.
0:51 looked hella sus until they zoomed in
Nice tour!
You do get real coffe cups if you order real black coffe 🙂
You call that houses ” landshövdingehus” it was to expansiv to have the whole hous in stone,but for it dont should burn down,when one house get burning you did the bottenfloor in stone😊
💯 on point about the coffee cup. Just not the same in a glass. Tends to be how specifically lattes are served in some places. I've also seen americanos served this way.
In my opinion Copenhagen is the best Nordic city I think you'll like it. Also that moccamaster is a staple in every Finnish household or at least used to be and I suppose same in Sweden
can you share where to book this accomodation please?
My old hometown, moved 2003
Are you going to aik-djurgården?
Yes! We will be there. Where/when is the fan march, we want to participate!
Göteborg är sveriges bästa stad
we drink a lot of coffe in sweden. 😂❤😂
What´s the name of your accommodation? Looks really nice for next time i´m visiting Gothenburg
You should go to Gotland
I never heard the Goth joke before :) to us is just an easy English-ification we provide to let foreigners not try to bother butchering Göteborg. The other Skansen/Castle, Skansen Lejonet/The Lion is said to have been under the command Emerentia Pauli, wife of the deceased commander, where she successfully commanded the defense against the Danes until the Swedish army reinforced them. Basically the saying goes her dying husband knew his military staff was incompetent and made her temporary commander and the entire defense went “sure she’s giving orders and clearly knows what to do, hell yeah we’ll follow orders from a civilian if it means we will survive this occupation!”… also said drunk invaders were found in the wine cellar, who were so drunk they had missed that the rest of the danish army retreated. The castles looks tiny from afar but if you visit them when they are open, they are surprisingly large on the inside.
I’d love to know, wich have the best- cinammon buns? Your opinion.
Love you guys!! ❤🎉
The wooden houses with bricks or stones at the bottom were build like that to because of fire regulations and to save money back in the days
