[@DerpsterSwe]

What you said about Swedes and personal space could not be more accurate, we do love our personal space hahaha. It's an unwritten rule to not violate someones personal space.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Yeah haha it's not even a bad thing, just interesting! :D

[@Scamspam]

I don't feel like that's really exclusive to Sweden though, is it? I've experienced the same in Australia and the UK as well.

[@DerpsterSwe]

Scamspam Nah i mean that personality trait probably exists in every single country to some extent but Swedes in particular are notorious for having this personality trait. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Sweden is very sparsely populated.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

You're right Scamspam, it's not like it's a Swede-only thing, but I feel the level of it is just heightened here. For example, in Australia, there's much more of an openness amongst strangers, to chat. Swedes seem a little more insular. I really think it's to do with the cold!

[@FransWolfy]

and to be honest, it doesn't have to be a bad thing imo.

[@winchesterbanares9794]

Dadgummit! Sweden is the perfect place for me. Someone help me move there! Hahahuhu

[@jhuncaye5897]

Wow my favirite country is Sweden and I love Sweden from Philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭❤

[@arturovillalobos336]

Go there in summer, then is sunshine all day long.

[@shallowlord]

The swedes are never happy about the weather.. If its cold its too cold, if its warm its too warm, If its snow, its too much snow, if its no snow, its to little... Still they waiting all winter for the warm summer, and when its finally here its not good enough...

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Isn't there a word for this... Lagom? :D

[@cuffzter]

The reason we talk about the weather is because it is such a safe subject. Its not politics, its not religion.. just "shitty weather" or "todays its nice" and everyone can agree. So its a safe, non-conflict subject.

[@millsedwa]

Them feels! I’m Aussie and my boyfriend is Swedish and I just went to his side of the world to check it out, Stockholm too! Perfect summary of what it is like, 4pm darkness, Selma buns and cosy-ness.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Yes! 2 months in and I (Aussie) am loving it. Are you back in Aus now?

[@millsedwa]

Aussie & A Swede I’m currently studying in Spain but will be back and forth from Spain and Sweden this year :) hope to be back for midsummer and most of June/July and then make the move to sweden next year. Would be great to catch up with another swede/Aus couple and see how you’ve gone about it.

[@zouhirrezzaq3661]

Try come to Morocco here nice weather too

[@Nisse49]

This channel deserves more attention.

[@Xanthopteryx]

I think weather is such a big thing here because we are in one of the most interesting latitudes regarding weather. A very turbulent latitude with a lot of shifting back and fourth. And the weather has such a big impact on us. Over a year, the temperature can range from -40C to +30C, in the same place!

[@atlusproject1267]

Love Stockholm...was there in September and the weather was beautiful. Spent a month travelling from Copenhagen, Denmark to Stockholm, Sweden, then Oslo and Bergen Hordaland Norway. I will be back in May. I'm contemplating living in Stockholm myself.

[@tarelendal]

Besides the way earlier sundown during winter, stockholm sounds and looks like a milder version of Quebec as far as temperature goes. Still, looks like a breathtaking city that's for sure!

[@marco19695]

Beautiful people... 🥰

[@Pathrissia]

We're talking a lot about the weather because it's changing so often

[@johanbergman311]

Probably others have already explained it in the comments, but the weather is simply the go-to small-talk topic in Sweden, if you necessarily feel the need to small-talk. It's an innocent enough topic that everyone can relate to, perhaps somewhat similar to snakes in Australia. ;)

[@lousunny5682]

It makes me happy to understand your Swedish.

[@TheJourneyest2016]

Just found you man! Excited to see more!

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

I watched 23 seconds of This video before i relised you were good youtubers! lol!

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Ha thanks Bane! First time we've been called a good youtuber but we'll take it!

[@matsjames7348]

Hey Mate, Had a scroll through your KZbin page, great footage, love the vid’s, but figured you might be able to offer me as a fellow Aussie more than a yoga lesson, I’m chasing a little insight regarding how you transitioned from Aus to Sweden? You may already have a video/comment train covering this, if so great, point us in that direction, if not I’d love to hear what we’re some of the points looking back that you wish you knew or that you think are important to know both regarding physically being in Sweden and also setting up a life in Sweden aka banking, moving wealth from Aus to Sweden, land purchase, healthcare etc.. anyways enough said, if you’s have a moment to respond that’d be heaps appreciated, otherwise perhaps an idea for a future vid 👌🏼 Cheers, Mats

[@MrZnarffy]

Haha. Pretty spot on. Lived a few years down under and my ex is Australian so recognize some of the stuff you speak about so well :)

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Where in Aus, mate?

[@MrZnarffy]

WA. Perth, and then down south there in some small towns, Dunsborough, Busselton, Margaret River... Funny enough the stuff I miss most is those bloody magpies waking me up every morning. :)

[@peternolan6648]

It was -28C in Boulder, Colorado last week. When you say it's cold, how cold was it? Looks beautiful though!

[@shallowlord]

The funny thing is that i always wear shorts and often t-shirt in the winter.. And a couple of weeks ago a lady came up to me and said. "Hi i'm from Australia, and i can't understand how you can walk around in the winter with shorts and t-shirt.. Like a real viking. Is it ok if i took a picture so i can show my friends?" Haha... that made my day.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

That's what Alice always says...at the first sign of sun, the Swedes get their shorts and t-shirts out.. AND start sitting out in the sun for drinks lol. I've noticed already that the pubs are putting their chairs outside. CLASSIC

[@thetwilightspirit69]

lol why would you wear shorts in winter? Especially in a country like sweden where it actually gets cold. Can't your legs freeze or something.

[@user-ng3iz7bn8i]

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Swaussie!

[@claespetersson1812]

Whoever tricked this poor poor man into coming to Sweden should be ashamed. Its april soon and still snow on the ground! Positive side is that grass is still green underneath. Negative side is that you dont see it ('HA-HA' echos in the distance...). But positive from not seeing all the lovely green grass is that you are still in the mental state that it is wintertime! Which brings me back to saying you'll only have 3 months of sun. I just facepalmed so hard so i passed out for a moment, i hate snow.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Haha I just lol'd hard, thanks Claes! This is the 'poor poor' man. I understand that after living here for years the weather might get you down, but I'm having a ball here in Sweden and the weather right now, is perfect! Good Friday and the sun is shining, even if it is fleeting :) I think the weather, and life, is kind of what you make it. Good luck in turning that frown upside down! Puss

[@claespetersson1812]

You are correct, sir. In Sweden we even have a saying: "There is no bad weather, only bad clothes". Hope you enjoy summertime, and if you havent seen a swedish midsummer before dont worry. The frog thing makes everybody clueless. You'll get it when you see it! ^^, Cheers!

[@atlaxxedits564]

HAH, in my cousins town have been snowing now for 4 days, and in my town, here is like over 1 meter snow

Ah yeah typical Swedish winter for ya, everything dies down at 4 pm In the summer it’s the complete opposite though, it probably doesn’t ger dark out until 3 am, and even then the sun rises again at 6 am, it’s the best - you should come here then!! Much nicer

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Hey Sam, yes well we live here now so get to experience it all! So far Spring is off to a good start :) Where are you based?

[@lilsaam]

Aussie & A Swede ah how are you liking Stockholm? born and raised in Gothenburg myself ☺️

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

I love it! Really good vibe. It's nice that we've got an apartment/jobs now (as you will see in our other video) so yeah..feeling more and more like HOME

[@tomasbudrikas2506]

Really nice short video mate ! "Swedish private space" has to do with the large number of introvert people, which is quite opposite to extroverts that lives most in Australia and Mexico probably. You should watch movie "swedish theory of love" that made one italian producer, that would provide you some "hidden" basics :) Talking about weather-yes trully it's neutrall topic here.Its common thinking that politics lead to conflicts. Swedes are really not good in chat with strangers, which brings them to place 64 out of 68 countries by Expat insider survey 2018 Here is the case "While extroverts typically learn through trial and error, introverts learn best by watching, but not interacting. If you are out somewhere in Sweden and somebody aproach and says "hur är med dig?(how are you mate?)without any reason then you know he is not a swede :) good luck guys-keep going! ;)

[@ZetaReticuli87]

Reason behind swedes talking about the weather all the time is because way back you hade to plan for the winter to survive, growing crops etc. A bad spring/summer will yield less and it'd be harder to survive the winter. Sometimes we also use it to small talk to people.

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

That's a really good answer, and makes a lot of sense.

[@swedenalshammari1707]

I frome Sweden and iv benn her for 10000'000' times lol

[@zingolito209]

That about being to yourself is because Stockholm is a bigger city, I live in a small one next to Gothenburg and when I go around with my parents they stop to talk to people quite often😒😅 Edit: I think many of those thinks depend on where you live

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Great, we will definitely be doing some exploring to the more rural areas so looking forward to the differences! Might need to make a vid about that... 'Stockholmers VS the rest of the Swedes!'

I could NEVER deal with 'night time' in daylight hours - not for anyone! How could you have made such a move & leave Aus?

[@robbieyoung-yogamusic7983]

Ah, but could you deal with daylight in 'night time' hours? Hehe because that's coming up soon. And, well, I guess you and me are just wired differently. I've never been happier!

[@GovernYourself]

there's such a thing as daylight saving where it's still light(ish) up to 9:00pm over the Spring & Summer but that aside, it seems unnatural to have daylight in night time hours ... balance of light and dark is needed for good health - keep that Vitamin D up! Good to hear that you're happy though and may it continue over the coming years :) I don't know why this video even came up in my channel recs but it was fun anyway and yep, wired differently as I need and love hot weather and the sense of space and light.

Way to influence local authorities: send support for part of the project and the demand for the authorities to solve your problem. Not wanting my arrival in the leadership of the Russian Federation, the administration decides the issue in your favor. It is tested in the midst of scientific intelligentsia, students, entrepreneurship and state bureaucracy. For 8 points of the project - one requirement. The project criteria in Russian are on the profile of Onar Salmiyanov, on Yandex.Dzen and Facebook.

I did lots of research on possibly relocating to Sweden as it just seemed like a great place socially to live... Yes taxes seem high but what the hell... It's taxing mentally to be u.s. citizen anymore... But the deciding factor for me was the absolutely shocking leadership in Sweden they have done shocking things like allow millions of Pakistani African Somali Syrian Muslims into the country and I read about shocking rape epidemic so bad it said Sweden had the highest rape sexual assaults against women in the world! My God what happened to Stockholm and Malmo I read about no go zones and feminists leaders of Sweden doing nothing for swedish women being raped it was absolutely shocking to see this ... I went to Sweden years ago when in military and absolutely loved Sweden but no way I'd go there now... I just can't imagine govt leaders inviting Isis fighters to be citizens? How can this be!!!

[@cobaltocean5822]

lance miller Yea I grew up in Sweden and moved to the states in the early 80's. When I go back to visit family now it is very sad to see how the country have been resettled by Islamists. I just walk down the street minding my own business and as I pass a middle eastern guy he waved his fist at me so I said: "Welcome to my country, can I buy you a cup of coffee" and he snorts something about me being a racist. It never fails every time I go there it just gets worse and worse.

[@sammyniagra604]

As a non-white foreigner (Korean origin) who has been visiting Sweden since 2005, I agree it's gone downhill really badly since 2012. It used to just feel safe. In Sthlm and GBG, even at 3am when people come out of the nightclubs - the atmosphere was always chill, friendly, with people (women included) walking home. Now, all the girls have to get taxis home, because otherwise black or Muslim guys will harass them. Also, every time I have been in a Swedish city at night in recent years, I get black guys stalking me, aggressively trying to sell me drugs.

[@davidreljanovic5675]

Yes I understand that that is your impression. Especially since all you take in is right wing extremistic propaganda and populism. But no, it’s all bs. You’ve been dooped. Sweden has far far lower rape stats than any other country if you measure it by the same standards for instance.
