Just a tip that can make things easier for you, the letter “J” is pronounced like the letter “I” in Swedish, Norwegian and Danish. So, Jofrid is pronounced“Iofrid” and Fjell is pronounced “Fiell” 😉. Just replace the sound of the English J for I in all Swedish words and you are good to go, no one will notice you are not Scandinavian. 😉

Hey, Nick! I'm new to your channel; landed here a few days ago and I'm kinda binge watching to get caught up. I've sampled a good few of the designer KZbinrs, and you're on my short list of favorites, for what that's worth. I moved into my new home six months ago, and I'm enjoying the process of putting it all together with a lot of old and a little new. I have a design background, which helps, but I love seeing new ideas. You have a great way of presenting yourself and your insights, with respect and humor.
