1. Start building your coffee toleration. Sweden ranks 2nd in the world after Finland in terms of coffee consumption per person.
Well, I live in Finland and I drink about 12 cups of coffee / day. I have a moka pot, moccamaster coffee maker and De'Longhi espresso machine. I also roast and grind the coffee beans myself. Aaaand I have tried swedish brands like gevalia and löfbergs lila.
2. Pick a number, please
It's the same here...
3. You can probably get by with English for decades, but...
My Swedish is just as good as my English. Also Swedish is very easy language to learn. Much easier than English
4. Get your shopping done before 5 p.m. (if you can)
Not a problem, but I dont really like big crowds / waiting.
5. At some point, you will squeeze food out of toothpaste tubes
Lol, I would never make a mistake like that.
6. Daddies pushing strollers
Don't care.
7. Camping and hiking and picking berries
Picking berries, I do that every summer. Last summer was a bit scary, I got lost in the forest and I couldn't even call help because I forgot to take my phone..
8. Melodifestivalen
Not my thing, I like to listen Kpop.
9. Many businesses shut down in July

10. Try keeping it "lagom"
no problemo
11. Locate your nearest IKEA
I can do just fine without it
12. Nice shoes. Please take them off
It's the same here.
13. Winters are really cold, dark, and can be depressing
I live near the artic circle, it probably little bit colder here than in Sweden. I've been to Kiruna (Sweden's northernmost city) too, but it was summer. Very nice place.
14. Be on time
I'm always on time.
15. Get your tasty adult beverages at state-run Systembolaget
We have Systembolaget too but it's called "Alko". I dont drink alcohol, so no need to go there.
16. Keep that plastic bag
I always get a new one!
17. Special days celebrating food
yeah, yeah
18. It is safe to drink the water
Same as here, i've never bought bottled water.
19. Business casual means jeans
no comments.
20. Not all education and healthcare is free
Not much different.

The "take your shoes off" is something that really stays in ones head. When I'm in hotels in other countries, and they got carpets or wood floor, I always remove my shoes.
And sometimes I forget and remove my shoes when we're visiting families in their home, but all the times I've done it they've always been nice enough to offer my a pair of sandals to walk around in.
Same as here, i've never bought bottled water.
I've bought bottled water, BUBBLY RAMLÖSA. But I'd never buy simple water, it's stupid.
And a lot of time, we've been to places where you can just drink the water that flows through the forest. It was tasty.

re: shoes.
I spent three weeks visiting a friend in North Carolina back in 99 ... I took off my shoes every time I entered the home... but for teh life of me I can't remember if I was the only one in the house doing it or not.
weird.re: bottled water.
If I'm travelling in a place that I consider iffy on the hygiene, then I'll buy bottled normal water.
been vindicated almost every time too. when on a school trip to russia in 97, over half the class got sick at this one hotel we stayed at.
after some troubleshooting we nailed it down by realizing that the people who *didn't* get sick had either been drinking only pepsi/cola/7up/etc or bottled water.Posted 1 year ago # -
What if all of them noticed and started taking off their shoes so you wouldn't feel awkward?
When we where in Nicaragua, my Dad and I went to visit a friend of him. He had this super gorgeous house, but still that didn't make me change my mind about removing my shoes which I did as soon as I entered. For the first hour we were at the house, their maid tried to convince me to put on my shoes because the floor was "cold" and I could get "sick". SIGH, "COLD" in Nicaragua is definitely not "cold" over here.
