I think the old abandoned industrial complexes have a certain charm to them. They could be awesome filming locations for movies etc imo.

And they say Americans are load and obnoxious…. We got nothing on this guy!

A great video (as always). US friends are often amazed when they see old American cars from the 50’s and 60’s, but I try to explain a bit of the history, which you did a lot better. We have a great event in our town, Vänersborg, in late August when ladies (ONLY) drive around in old cars. Driving around in old (American) cars is called “Cruising” and is arranged all over our country. Also the more rural area, the more “raggare” and “raggarbilar”. This can be explained that in those rural areas people are used to take care of them self and their belongings and now how to handle a welding machine, a sledge hammer and angle grinder to fix their sowing machines or water boiler. Buying and old rusty US car and fixing it is no issue. I had a chat with a guy who runs a … wait for it! ….. rock’n’roll and aquarium fish shop and who also organised various music and motor events. He said that today the music and the cars united people in a unique way. You could see a heart surgeon and a welder discuss 2- or 4- or 5-port carburetors in a Ford Impala 1957 or division manager in a major multinationell company argue with a McDonald worker who was the best - Elvis Presley or Little Richard. Class, income and step on the social ladder don’t matter - the motors and the music do!

As a Brazilian, I have always felt strange and out of place when it comes to this type of behavior, because in Brazil it is exactly the opposite of Sweden. Here if you don't cut the line you are treated as "boring" or "idiot", if you are not religious you are also treated that way, most of the politicians with the most votes are involved with some type of religion and people love to talk on themselves to diminish others, brazilians are always loud af too. Now I realized that I would do very well living in Sweden, because I always hated this type of Brazilian behavior.

Slarary why it's just money it's not drugs to upset about 😂😂😂😂

As a Swede myself. When he started talking about reinventing the death penalty I *immediately* knew what he was gonna say. Don’t ever sit next to someone on the bus or metro.

As an American who lives in California, I feel like my perspective is probably very different to those who live in Sweden. My significant other and his family migrated there, and heard very bad things about Rinkeby while there. Of course no place is perfect and I am always cautious where I am no matter what. However, every visit I have had in Rinkeby, it's never been so bad nor have I felt very worried. The area is still nice with how clean and the amount nature that there is everywhere. Like I said, I could be biased as I'm American and used to much more worse looking areas. I'm a big fan of your videos, and I am actually very happy to see your video take place in all the areas I would always walk through and visit during the summers and winter!

As usual another informative video with some good humor mixed in. You’re my favorite RU-vidr. Tack så mycket! (I’m learning Swedish)

tiene un moco señor

Love your 'sing-song' mildly sarcastic way of talking. So cute <3 :))

Thanks, but I would not recommend to try seeing both cities in one day as you will only have time to walk around and then the cities look rather similar (especially taking one boat trip each). Instead, I'd focus on the specific highlights, some as you mentioned, such as the Belfry, Holy Blood Chapel, Bruges Madonna, Museum and the Brugse Zot Brewery in Bruges and the Castle, Altarpiece and Belfry in Gent. With your tight schedule, I would have visited the Belfry in Gent instead (less croweded and with an elevator) and skipped the Boat ride in Gent. Walking downtown is not really an option in Gent as the station is a bit far off...

Isn't this like any city in the UK?

Dang you absolutely burned Norway

ta en titt på detta klipp Ulfs radhus sprängdes i gängkriget - Allard donerar 100 000 kronor. Så tror jag inte du skulle stå och titta Ulf i ögonen och säga detta tror inte du skulle kunna stå och säga detta och och se alla dom i bostads området i ögonen och säga detta

And it got invaded lol

Remembering there are 50 states in the USA ALL are as different as night and day. Texas alone is bigger than England. We each operate under different sovereign rights add rules! We unite on military, guns & illegals!

Sweden operates a series of facilities - Riksarkivet services - because there are more Swedes living elsewhere in the world than in Sweden today. Combined with the proportion of foreign born immigrants currently there, wouldn't the government be interested in drawing Swedish families back to Sweden to support the culture as well as overcome the low birth rates?

This is great, ive been saying this for years and people defend it

I visited all 34 "exposed areas" and gave them all a grade :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vzPBj8DBrAE.html

Sverige består inte av Stockholm Det är ett avlångt land och mycket finns att uppleva l den Norra delen av av Sverige Som jag ser är alla platser från Stockholm

You left out the most important one: DO NOT leave your shoes on when you come into someone's home. Unless we EXPLICITLY tell you to keep your shoes on, take them off at the door!!! xD

Very informative

I’m american and I really love anything moomin. I discovered it on accident when I needed something comforting and it just stuck. I’d love to visit one day! It all looks so cute!

the title should be "In Stockholm" rather than "In Sweden". sure some things apply outside to a degree but many of these is 08 (stockholm) culture.

I think running in the escalator is more a Stockholm thing, never seeing that any where else in Sweden, so I'm like, use the damned stairs if you're in such hurry

Love the title and your commentary. It is funny, because it is true😂

Dude, this is awesome! I m subscribing!

If you want to help these “beggars” what you can do is buy them food. Never ever give them money. I’ve seen many times young men on bikes come and collect the cash. While there are real beggars in Stockholm (but it is very rare in part because citizens can’t really become homeless normally since you will be provided shelter and food and such by the state if you’re in the need) the vast majority, especially the very performative ones sitting and “praying” or (and I’m sorry to stereotype but it seems accurate) the Roma beggars are always involved in organized crime.

As usually great video. People are saying that Malmo is dangerous also, but I found that it's also nice and clean city when I was visiting it 😊

like always a very good commentary in the context

You look quite dapper, sir! Nice video, touchy subject. As a hardworking immigrant myself, I see nothing wrong in it if the people integrate into society. Problems start when they don't, are lazy and expect to be supported by the government while at the same time joining gangs in search of more easy money.

sweden is a propoganda land for its people

En riktigt rättvis och nyanserad analys av situationen i Sverige. Bra jobbat.

I can't believe you spend time in the friet museum in Bruges when you could have seen more beautiful things in Ghent instead. Ghent rules by far in beauty and in historically importancy

LONDON is Little Pakistan

I don't like this revival of a very cruel culture

This ride was pure horror. I literally thought I would die from cardiac arrest.😢

Same old same old, imprisoning refugees and deporting them to their deaths. Punishing survival in the name of humanitarian cause. The Germanic people are rich on the outside but poor within. Don't steal from the impoverished. Both the African people and the Chinese are far richer than these sad, pale punitive, incels who rob those merely seeking to avoid persecution.

Not that my pinion matters, but Sweden seems lovely. Thank you.

So great. Inexpensive produce. Delicious shawarma. Exotic pastries for fika. But I watched what happened to Southern California. I can guarantee to you that in fifty years this is what Drottninggatan and the market at Hötorget will look like. And the Africans won't be singing Pippi Longstocking anymore. These people will outbreed native Swedes and take over everywhere. Watch a video of downtown Los Angeles in the 60's and watch one now. Barbara Spectre wasn't lying. Swedes will become a minority in their own country. It's at 20% now. Wait till it gets to 40%. Your grandchildren will curse you for not stopping it when you could.

Thank you Miro, that was a great video! I'm always very curious to know what it's actually like, but from what you've shown, it looks like a nice place. Especially for people who come from places that are far worse than most people understand. I'm not sure what gun laws are like in Sweden, but I know people have them, just not to the extreme we do here in the US. Have you heard how these gangs get ahold of guns? Where do the guns come from?

Love your program and all the tips for visiting Stockholm and beyond. They are great!

But for most Swedes the actual crime rates the last 2 decades have gone down tho. It’s just that the more spectacular crimes that get headlines have seen an increase. And even then it was more “dangerous” here in the 70s-90s if you look at deadly violence

You didn't ruin my day, you made my day! This is exactly how I usually describe Swedish winters to people from other countries. Now I can just send them your video! 😂😂👌🏻👌🏻

Hopefully Sweden doesn’t take in all the cancerous trash from other countries that decided to take out the trash. Sweden is so culturally the polar opposite any of the trash they would take in.

you explained it very well. no bs no exaggeration, directly to the point.

Thanks again Miro for this useful video. Trust me I believe you are not a woman 😂. But as a woman myself who’s going to visit Stockholm (and Uppsala just to visit the place of Linnaeus the ‘father of taxonomy’), I’d better play safe and only go to the “go-zone” 👍😀🙏

You said it correctly, is not black or white is greyish and there is no perfect country... I love Sweden though

Great video though I don't like lager, I have a rather dark mood and prefer stout, IPA or a darker/red ale. Omnipollo is definitely worth mentioning because they "tar ut svängarna" (make wide turns) and experiment a lot. Oppigård is a brewery in Dalecarlia that makes more "normal" beer. I like their IPA. Electric Nurse, was started by an electronics engineer and his wife who's a nurse. Also producers of great beer. From my roots comes beer from Emmaboda Brewery. Not only are the beer great but the names ..... EPA - Emmaboda Pale Ale or Bapelsin (Borange in English - it's from an anecdote). Even in our small town of Vänersborg is a small craft brewery - Microbryggeri1. Many small breweries don't and cannot sell their products to us drinkers, but may have a small bar and often sell to local restaurants. There have been talks of changing the rules and laws that will impact microbreweries in a bad way, but I hope the politicians reconsider the planned new laws. And as a bonus, I shared a slideshow I made for our Pensioneers club and you can find it here (my channel is called Magnus Kesselmark) and 29 minutes into the video are photos of drinks and food from some of our US roadtrips with a lot of beer testing - "7 Resor ..."

I used to live near a "no-go zone" in Skåne, walked very safely around late evenings, nights and early mornings near/in surrounding areas including industrial areas, without ever having any issues. Only reason I rarely ventured into the area itself was because it was the wrong direction from where I was going. I had to call 112 more times when I lived in the city of the same city (for burglaries). I know many females are paranoid and maybe for a good reason but I don't share that experience and is not very scared. I much rather walk around a Swedish no-go-zone at night than one in USA or whatever.
