A true story of the Icelandic spontaneity/flexibility. A Swiss friend of mine went to Iceland with his family, equipped with a telephone number to a friend of friend who would be happy to give them a tour of Reykjavik. Once in Reykjavik they called the friend and he said "just tell me where you are and I'll be round in 15 min". They met up and had a lovely time. Ultimately though they were curious to find out how this guy knew their Swiss friend. Turned out he had no idea. They had rung the wrong number.

I (Italian) was working in Copenhagen some years ago when a colleague kindly invited me writing "Hey I was wondering if you'd like to come to my house for dinner on Friday" So I accepted, I thanked, I bought wine and chocolate, kept the Friday free and then on Thursday I asked her for the address. She answered "Oh sorry for thr misunderstanding, I meant Friday the 20th." It was the 3rd of the month.

Sorry for being pedantic, but if your invitation was for Friday the 20th of that month, then the Thursdays of that month will fall on 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th. There is no way there could be a Thursday on the 3rd. I guess you don't remember the days and dates well, just as Ari Aldjarn told about Icelanders and Italians 😁

When I watched this with my polish boyfriend, he spent half the time laughing his ass off and the other half pointing at the TV screen while looking at me, going: "SEE!? This is EXACTLY what I've been saying for years! I mean, why would ANYONE use the number of the week instead of a date? This guy GETS IT!" To be fair, as a Dane, I've always been fairly confused as to why we use that system and hate it with a passion xD
@TheDezmona

Funny, as an Icelandic person who's lived in Denmark for about 6 years the week system makes sense to me, however I still struggle with the number system sometimes because every time I tried to learn it I just get mad and think "WHAT DRUNKEN FUCKING IDIOT CAME UP WITH THIS? WHY IS EVERYONE JUST GOING ALONG WITH THIS?" At least most Danes admit it's completely illogical, although I have met a few exceptionally stupid ones who act like it makes sense, yet are incapable of coming up with a single argument as to why.

They were called "Speckdänen" (literally Bacon Danes), suggesting they were only interested in receiving material aide from Denmark. The Swedes on the other hand all live in the woods, on lakes in beautiful red houses and haven't got a care in the world.

Iceland is (or was) a farming nation. Farming and fishing is how we got our food before the industrial revolution. There is no big game to hunt in Iceland (well there are some reindeer now, but that's a recent development) There are just birds, and they have been hunted, but it's never been our main source of food. It's true, though, that not a lot of crops are able to be farmed here, so we mostly grow grass to feed sheep and cows, but there are also potatoes, etc. Fishing was also just a supplement to farming up until about the start of the industrial revolution. Up until then fishing was pretty much only done in the summer in rowboats. We have never been a "hunting nation"

Yes, Icelandic accent is apparently similar to the Scottish one, at least. Had a Norwegian ask me if I was Scottish, because he thought I sounded like one. On the other hand, I've also had a Somalian ask me if I was Irish, because she thought I looked Scottish but my name didn't sound Scottish.

Yeh, I got hit by reverse culture shock when I returned to Indo after years abroad. Out there, I had to schedule things at least a few days in advance because our schedule rarely match together. I didnt know I've started to plan "staying at home" until I returned to Indo. Whereas in Yogya, my friend just rocks up to my place with a "get in loser, no time to explain" attitude, then borrows a bike helmet from the nearest burjo for me.
