10:47 This is a very famous Swedish song called "Öppna landskap". It's about Swedish nature and how we love it basically. 37:28 Yeah, it's pretty accurate. Someone compliments the food, everyone agree, the host asks if it's too much or too little spices/salt and everyone says it's perfect. 😊 59:44 I could not recommend story enough - "Bröderna Lejonhjärta"/"Brothers Lionheart" by Astrid Lindgren. It is on tough subjects but have helped sooo many sick children (and parents) to look forward in a positive way. Astrid Lindgren is a Swedish treasure for sure, if not the biggest treasure of all. She is the author of "Pippi Longstocking" and sooo much more. You will not hear a Swede say anything negative about her EVER. Like British Attenborough I guess. A famous rumour is that she always started her conversations with her sisters later in her life with "Death, death", so they didn't have to speak about all the bad stuff, but go into the joyful conversation straight away. I love that. Also, sorry for writing novels after all episodes! haha I joined your patreon to see you react to this series because I love it.

2023-10-27 17:13:42 +0000 UTCYes, showing someone your home first thing is quite normal. You can skip the bedroom if you want. :-) * I have slipped back into Swedish on Zoom calls with americans... but I can't say if other people do the same. * At the very end, they say the holiday is quite new, so I assume it's the Swedish National day... It's very new and most Swedes don't celebrate it. I suppose it will take a generation or two. Immigrants, very conservatives and nationalists celebrate it most, and it's a big day for the royal family. It's also more celebrated outside the cities. Last year I saw more Norwegians in Stockholm celebrating 17 of may than Swedes celebrating June 6th.
